Fuji Electric has developed processes to fabricate ICs. The process satisfies demands for a display driver IC of up to about 100V for a liquid crystal display (LCD), plasma display panel (PDP) and vacuum fluorescent display (VFD). The power control IC has up to about 40V of high voltage and high current analog signal control. The ICs are fabricated using the CMOS (complementary MOS) oxide isola...

supply voltage system where low supply gates may feed into high supply gates energy savings for benchmark circuits in comparison when level converters are not allowed. of a level shifter circuit having a structure to reduce fall and rise. input voltage levels prohibit the use of direct-gate drive circuits for high-side signal are linked by a level shift circuit that must tolerate the high-volta...

A low voltage incremental analog-to-digital converter with a pipelined architecture is presented. Using first order modulators the conversion time is significantly reduced even at low sampling rates while maintaining high resolution. The switched capacitor converter is designed to operate with a 1.8V power supply and uses three pipelined modulators. With careful design and digital correction it...

While graphene transistors have proven capable of delivering gigahertz-range cutoff frequencies, applying the devices to RF circuits has been largely hindered by the lack of current saturation in the zero band gap graphene. Herein, the first high-frequency voltage amplifier is demonstrated using large-area chemical vapor deposition grown graphene. The graphene field-effect transistor (GFET) has...

Recently, energy saving is strongly required to prevent global warming. Electricity is the most common energy form and is necessary in our daily life and various activities, because it is comparatively easy to utilize in transmission and conversion after generation. Therefore, it is very important to reduce energy loss in electric power systems and improve their efficiency. The present power sy...

A facility has been developed for the determination of the ratio of pulse high voltage dividers over the range from 10 kV to 300 kV using comparative techniques with Kerr electro-optic voltage measurement systems and reference resistive voltage dividers. Pulse voltage ratios of test dividers can be determined with relative expanded uncertainties of 0.4 % (coverage factor k = 2 and thus a two st...
