This paper presents the basic characteristics of the digitally controlled boost type dc-dc converter. The static and dynamic characteristics of the dc-dc converter with the digital PID control are discussed. Especially, it is examined that the A-D conversion timing and anti-aliasing filter’s cut-off frequency affect the dynamic and static characteristics. As a result, when the anti-aliasing fil...

Introduction. Waveguides have been successfully used to generate magnetic resonance images at 7 Tesla for whole-body systems [1]. From these results, it has been established that waveguides are only suitable for 7T systems with wide bores of al least 60 cm. This is mainly due to the cut-off frequency of the cylindrical waveguides used. To overcome this limitation a parallel-plate waveguide was ...

On-chip automatic tuning circuit with proposed integration level approximation technique, designed in a 0.65m 3.3V CMOS process for tuning of the variation passive component. To verify tunning efficiency of proposed circuit, three types of 2nd-order biquad RC active filters were used. The cut-off frequency (fc) error of filter with proposed tuning circuit can be reduced by new algorithm that co...

Impact of high-κ spacer in Asymmetric underlap double gate MOS transistor is systematically investigated with the help of a two dimensional device simulator. A significant improvement in ON current, transconductance and intrinsic gain is observed in the device using high-κ spacer material. However due to higher capacitances, device with high-κ spacer shows smaller unity gain cut-off frequency c...

Cocaine is a common drug of abuse. To detect its use, a screening detection concentration for the cocaine metabolite benzoylecgonine is commonly set at 150 ng/mL and its confirmatory cut-off is set at 100 ng/mL. Studies have suggested that these cut-offs may be set too high, allowing some patients with this substance abuse problem to be missed or improperly monitored. With the advent of liquid ...

The most important metrics for the high-frequency and high-power performance of microwave transistors are the cut-off frequency fT , and the Johnson figure of merit FoMJohnson. We have simulated a state-of-the-art, high-frequency and high-power GaN HEMT using our full band Cellular Monte Carlo (CMC) simulator, in order to study the RF performance and compare different methods to obtain such met...

Extended Abstract. Sampling is the process of selecting units (e.g., people, organizations) from a population of interest so that by studying the sample we may fairly generalize our results back to the population from which they were chosen. To draw a sample from the underlying population, a variety of sampling methods can be employed, individually or in combination. Cut-off sampling is a pr...

A qualitative study of the surface trapping of low-frequency non-radial g-modes in rotating early-type stars is undertaken within the Cowling, adiabatic and traditional approximations. A dispersion relation describing the local character of waves in a rotating star is derived; this dispersion relation is then used to construct propagation diagrams for a 7M⊙ stellar model, which show the locatio...
