This paper presents a transformer less ac/dc converter which can be used in voltages between 90230 Vrms. Instead of a transformer, this topology consists of a buck dc/dc converter and a buck boost dc/dc converter. By the absence of transformer, reduce the complexity of converter and it is cost effective. Buck dc/dc converter keeps o/p voltage below the line voltage; limit the leakage current. B...

Abstract A 5-bit MMIC serial to parallel converter has been designed in Gallium Arsenide. It is intended to be used together with a 5-bit True Time Delay (TTD) circuit, but it can easily be expanded into an arbitrary number of bits. The circuit has been designed with a logic style called DCFL, and a 0.20 μm process (ED02AH) from OMMIC has been used to fabricate the circuit. The chip size of thi...
