This paper describes a new design for a fault tolerant Hbridge dc-dc converter. Open circuit and short circuit fault tolerance is achieved using multilevel converter topology in combination with pulse width modulation control strategy allowing a large set of converter switching states to produce bidirectional power flows at any required output voltage. If two switches fail at particular instant...

A precision CMOS voltage reference circuit is very important for the design of the stable voltage down converter of the high density VLSIs. By using the active mode operation of the component MOS transistors a CMOS bandgap type reference voltage circuit was redesigned for the enhancement of the circuit stability against the internal noises. The voltage supply independence, temperature independe...

Abstract: In this study, a novel, non-isolated, cascade-type, single-switch, high step-up DC/DC converter was developed for green energy systems. An integrated coupled inductor and voltage lift circuit were applied to simplify the converter structure and satisfy the requirements of high efficiency and high voltage gain ratios.

The proposed multilevel DC-DC boost converter topology improves the conversion efficiency of traditional topology. The proposed boost converter topology is differing from the traditional topology by the addition of switched inductor circuit. The switched inductor improved the conv...

Nowadays, due to the increasing complexity of circuits and systems incorporating mixedsignal components, many designers recognise the advantages of, and in some cases the necessity for, mixed-signal modelling and simulation of the circuits and systems as a whole prior to, during and post production of the circuit or system. This is particularly so within the microelectronics (semiconductor) are...

The main purpose of this paper is to design a charge equalization circuit for series connected lead-acid batteries. The charger utilizes a three-level neutral point clamped (NPC) AC/DC converter with voltage balance control to charge the series connected rechargeable battery strings. This paper details the operation principles of the charge equalization circuit under different operation modes a...

This paper investigates a novel cyclic time-todigital converter (TDC) which employs triple-slope analog interpolation and time amplification techniques for digitizing the time interval between the rising edges of two input signals (Start and Stop). The proposed converter will be a 9-bit cyclic time-to-digital converter that does not use delay lines in its structure. Therefore, it has a low sens...

Residue Number System is a numerical system which arithmetic operations are performed parallelly. One of the main factors that affects the system’s performance is the complexity of reverse converter. It should be noted that the complexity of this part should not affect the earned speed of parallelly performed arithmetic unit. Therefore in this paper a high speed converter for moduli set {2n-1, ...
