Previous studies have shown that deep cerebellar nuclei (DCN)-lesioned mice develop conditioned responses (CR) on delay eyeblink conditioning when a salient tone conditioned stimulus (CS) is used, which suggests that the cerebellum potentially plays a role in more complicated cognitive functions. In the present study, we examined the role of DCN in tone frequency discrimination in the delay eye...

introduction: topiramate is a newly anti-convulsant drug, which acts as nmda glutamate receptor antagonist as well as the gabab receptor agonist. it is used for physical dependence to opioids as well as cocaine, nicotine, alcohol and ecstasy dependence. in the present study attempts were made to further identification of the effects of topiramate on the acquisition and expression of morphine-in...

Following acquisition of conditioned suppression of barpresses to a visual conditiondd stimulus (CS), rats were subjected to a particular variety of differentiation training procedures. An auditory conditioned inhibitor (CI), which preceded and accompanied the CS on some trials, signaled that inescapable shock will not be given on that trial. When the CI acquired the capacity to attenuate marke...

A linear radio frequency (RF) harvesting model is commonly assumed in recent simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) research, i.e., RF harvested power is assumed a scaled version of the input (received) power. However, rectifiers typically used in the microwave and radio frequency identification (RFID) industry are non-linear devices; thus, RF harvesting efficiency is not ...

In this paper we present the design and analysis of a distributed regenerative frequency divider (DRFD) based on a novel distributed single-balanced mixer. Artificial transmission lines are incorporated in the distributed single balanced mixer to absorb the parasitic capacitances. The circuit is realized in a 0.18 μm standard CMOS process. It shows a division by two for an input frequency of 40...
