Single-bit second-order delta-sigma modulators are commonly used in high-resolution ADCs. This type of modulator requires high-resolution test stimulus, which is difficult to generate. This paper proposes a novel and robust technique to determine the performance of the modulator by characterizing its key parameters using a pseudo-random pattern sequence. This technique is suitable for BIST appl...

This reaserch aims at functionalizing magnetic mesoporous silica with methacrylic acid-3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (Fe3O4@MCM-41@MAA-APTES) applied for removal of methylene blue from aqueous solution. Several variables (such as pH, dye concentration, adsorbent amount and contact time) have been investigated. Under optimum conditions, maximum capacity of 87.71 mg g-1 of MB was obtained for the ...

background: the presence of even a very small quantity of dye in water bodies is undesirable and affects the water bodies. dye removal from industrial waste water is significant; hence in this study, a material that is an economical waste product was employed to test its acid dye removing capacity from aqueous solution. methods: in this study, batch mode experiments were performed in the sorpti...

the performance of msu-s and its forms modified with phosphotungstic acid (hpw) and nickel (ni) for the desulfurization and denitrogenation of model diesel fuel were studied. according to the results of the characteristic tests (n2 adsorption-desorption, xrd, sem, and nh3-tpd), heteropoly acid incorporation causes higher acidity along with a negligible loss of structural aspects, while ni impre...

The present study was carried out to investigate the adsorption and leaching behavior of Cu2+, Zn2+ and Pb2+ by sediments collected from the western banks of three different sectors along River Nile at Aswan governorate, Egypt. The feasibility of sediments for the removal of Cu2+, Zn2+ and Pb2+ from aqueous solutions was tested under the effect of three conditions (pH, initial metal concentrati...

Neutral starch microspheres (NSMs) were synthesized by an inverse microemulsion technology with epichlorohydrin as a crosslinker and soluble starch as starting material. Anionic starch microspheres (ASMs) were prepared from NSMs by the secondary polymerization with chloroacetic acid as the anionic etherifying agent. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (...
