In this paper, we consider a repetitive routing problem which we find on a printed circuit board assembly line. There are m different printed circuit boards to be processed. As an automated manipulator embeds electronic parts in a printed circuit board from above, n identical pins from underneath protect it against overbending. A dedicated pin configuration is designed for each printed circuit ...

A Boolean circuit is a directed acyclic graph with some designated input gates of fan-in zero and one designated output gate of fan-out zero in which all non-input nodes are labeled with or, and, or not. All or and and gates have fan-in two, and all not gates fan-in one. We assume that the gates of a Boolean circuit are arranged in layers; each layer consists of gates whose inputs come only fro...

A new biquadratic universal filter configuration realizing second-order low-pass, band-pass, and high-pass fiters using single current conveyor is proposed. Using this configuration high-pass, low-pass and band-pass fiters can be realized with little modifications. The circuit employs a secondgeneration current conveyor (CCII+), and only four passive components. Since the current conveyor is a ...

T h e programming circuit o f look-up table based FPGAS consists of two shift registers, a control circuit and a configuration m e m o r y ( S R A M ) cell array.

This paper presents a new simple configuration to realize the voltage-controlled floating resistor, which is suitable for integrated circuit implementation. The proposed resistor is composed of three main components: MOS transistor operating in the non-saturation region, DDCC, and MOS voltage divider. The MOS transistor operating in the non-saturation region is used to configure a floating line...

A Novel circuit configuration for realizing multi-output four-terminal floating nullor in biopolar monolithic integrated circuit form is described. The circuit is simple and based on the use of an improved translinear cell type circuit, which provide wide bandwidth and dynamic range. The characteristics of this circuit are confirmed by HSPICE simulation results. The performance of the FTFN-base...
