a log-domain current-mode true rms-to-dc converter based on a novel synthesis of a simplified current-mode low pass filter and a two-quadrant squarer/divider is presented. the circuit employs floating gate mos (fg-mos) transistors operating in weak inversion region. the converter features low power(<1.5uw), low supply voltage (0.9v), two quadrant input current, immunity from body effect, low ci...

this paper presents a comprehensive case study on electro-mechanical analysis of mems[1] variable capacitors. using the fundamental mechanical and electrical equations, static and dynamic behaviors of the device are studied. the analysis is done for three different modes, namely: dc (static mode), small signal ac and large signal regime. a complete set of equations defining dynamic behavior of ...

This paper investigates the dynamic behavior of Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) process for two types of power supplies –inverter and rectifier- for short circuit transfer mode. The large ripples on the rectifier power source are able to perturb the metal transfer mode. In this experimental work some operating points in the short circuit mode have been selected using an automatic pipeline welding ...

In this paper a novel very high performance current mirror is presented. It favorably benefits from such excellent parameters as: Ultra high output resistance (36.9GΩ), extremely low input resistance (0.0058Ω), low output (~0.18V) and low input voltage (~0.18V) operation, very low power consumption (20μW), very low offset current (1pA), ultra wide current dynamic range (150dB), and ultra high a...

residue number system (rns) is a carry-free and non-weighed integer system. in this paper an improved three-moduli set  in reverse converter based on crt algorithm is proposed. crt algorithm can perform a better delay and hardware implementation in modules via other algorithms. this moduli is based on p that covers a wide range on modules and supports the whole range of its modules in dynamic r...

In this paper we have analyzed the advantages of using dynamic circuits over static circuits with result oriented example for NAND operation. The different aspects covered under this discussion include power, speed, area, input Capacitance and timing delays calculation. We have also covered the problem of increase in dynamic power dissipation at the dynamic and the output node in dynamic circui...

Dynamic logic style is used in high performance circuit designs because of its faster speed and lesser transistor requirement as compared to static CMOS logic style. Dynamic logic has inherent disadvantages like less noise immunity and high power consumption. In this paper we have proposed a novel circuit technique for implementing dynamic gate. The proposed circuit has very less power dissipat...

The aim of this paper is to provide new insights about the circuitry and the role of the dorsal column nuclei (DCN) in processing somatosensory information. The presence of glycinergic cells, a second type of DCN interneurons in addition to well-known GABAergic interneurons, opens the door to more complex interactions between cuneate cells as well as to a new hypothesis about the computational ...
