Presently, nearly 26,000 MW gas power plant and nearly 16,000 MW of combined cycle has been installed in the country. But their power output in summer reduces to a minimum, where most demand is required, compared to the winter season. The main reason for that is gas turbine dependence on the ambient air temperature. Since most of our country has warm and dry climates, cooling down the input air...

In this paper a novel ultra-high compliance, low power, very accurate and high output impedance current mirror/source is proposed. Deliberately composed elements and a good combination (for a mutual auto control action) of negative and positive feedbacks in the proposed circuit made it unique in gathering ultra-high compliances, high output impedance and high accuracy ever demanded merits. The ...

This paper presents a broadband high operating frequency divide-by-2 frequency divider. This divider uses sourcecoupled logic (SCL) with two static loading master-slave D latches which achieves high input operating frequency, high input sensitivity and low power dissipation. This divider can work from 8GHz~ 27GHz and the input power is -40dBm@18GHz. The chip area is 735μm×480μm with only 4.6mW ...

Power Electronics have proved itself as an encompassing field for power generation and 1IlaI1ag4:me Traditionally conversion of ac to de vo~es has been dominated by phase controlled or diode rectifiers. The ideal character of the input current draWnby these rectifiers creates number of problems like increase in .. power, high input current harmonics and low input power factor, lower rectifier e...

Accurate power estimation of digital CMOS circuit can be obtained by explicit simulation. However, power dissipation is input dependent. To obtain an accurate power estimate, a large input vector set has to be used resulting in large simulation time. One solution is to generate a representative vector set of the original input vector set that contains only a few thousand vectors which can then ...

We present a 144-element terahertz quasi-optical grid frequency doubler. The grid is a planar structure with bowtie antennas as a unit cell, each loaded with a planar Schottky diode. The maximum output power measured for this grid is 24 mW at 1 THz for 3.1s 500-GHz input pulses with a peak input power of 47 W. An efficiency of 0.17% for an input power of 6.3 W and output power of 10.8 mW is mea...
