RF front - end design for terrestrial and mobile digital television systems ( May 2007 )

CMOS RF front-end design for terrestrial and mobile digital television systems (May 2007) Jianhong Xiao Chair of Advisory Committee: Jose Silva-Martinez With the increasing demand for high quality TV service, digital television (DTV) is replacing the conventional analog television. DTV tuner is one of the most critical blocks of the DTV receiver system; it down-converts the desired DTV RF chann...

Sensor and Display Human Factors Based Design Constraints for Head Mounted and Tele-Operation Systems

For mobile imaging systems in head mounted displays and tele-operation systems it is important to maximize the amount of visual information transmitted to the human visual system without exceeding its input capacity. This paper aims to describe the design constraints on the imager and display systems of head mounted devices and tele-operated systems based upon the capabilities of the human visu...

Analog Dialogue 47-05, May (2013)

Introduction Precision instrumentation systems that measure physical properties using a photodiode or other current-output sensor often include a transimpedance amplifier (TIA) and a programmablegain stage to maximize dynamic range. This article uses a real-world example to show the benefits and challenges of implementing a single-stage programmable-gain TIA to minimize noise while maintaining ...

Non-linear Opto-Electrical Transfer Functions for High Dynamic Range Television

Modern video displays provide improved performance compared to, now obsolete, cathode ray tube (CRT) displays. In particular they are now starting to provide brighter images and deeper blacks. In other words they are starting to provide significantly higher dynamic range than CRT displays. A television system that can take advantage of this would be able to offer improved pictures that are more...
