Power consumption has become a crucial concern in Built In Self Test (BIST) due to the switching activity in the circuit under test(CUT). In this paper we present a novel method which aims at minimizing the total power consumption during testing. This is achieved by minimizing the switching activity in the circuit by reducing the Hamming Distance between successive test vectors. In this method ...

This paper presents dc-dc converter operation of boost converter are an enabling soft switching technology. This proposed converter configuration can achieve zero voltage switching. The circuit consists of a general boost Converter with an auxiliary circuit which has a additional switch, and resonant components (snubbers). Boost converter has loss mechanism, current stress and voltage stress. b...

The basic idea of the circuit fault diagnosis method based on logic is to establish a computer expert database system first, connect GPIB interface card, and then each intelligent instrument through standard bus. Through connection tested object adapter object, test platform are formed. Based traditional simulation model, this paper improves switching power supply, designs model simulation, dea...

This paper proposes a new resonant gate driver circuit for a soft switching synchronous buck converter in a fixed load condition. The switching energy can be fully recovered during current commutation phase in the gate driver while the diode conduction losses in the low and high side switches can be substantially reduced by employing additional L and C resonant in the circuit. Using PSpice simu...

The main objective of the study is to analysis and design parallel boost power converter for power factor correction using an active filtering approach by implementing single-phase soft-switching technique with an active snubber circuit. Zero voltage transition to turn ON and zero current transition to turn OFF is implemented by the active snubber circuit for the main switches with no any furth...

Circuit switching, suited to providing real-time services due to the low and fixed switching delay, is not cost effective for building integrated services networks because is based on static allocation of resources which is not efficient with bursty data traffic. Moreover it cannot handle flow that are not integer multiple of 64 Kb/s, preventing the usage of low bit rate codecs. This work explo...

Third generation (3G) packet switched WCDMA networks with high-speed downlink packet access (HSPDA) are currently being deployed worldwide to provide wireless broadband connectivity. When introducing HSDPA in 3G networks the end user experience and system capacity with voice over IP applications improve considerably. When later on adding also high-speed packet uplink access (HSUPA), the system ...

Low-copy-number molecules are involved in many functions in cells. The intrinsic fluctuations of these numbers can enable stochastic switching between multiple steady states, inducing phenotypic variability. Herein we present a theoretical and computational study based on Master Equations and Fokker-Planck and Langevin descriptions of stochastic switching for a genetic circuit of autoactivation...

This work is concerned about the design process of high performance integrated circuits in presence of noise produced by large high-speed digital circuits in the same die. In a more specific context, it deals with the early estimation of the substrate and simultaneous switching noise produced by digital circuits, its propagation and, in minor extent, its impact in the noise sensitive radio freq...
