Moving to higher transition frequencies, lower supply voltages and smaller dimensions are, nowadays, general trends in the semiconductor industry. While operating at lower supply voltages results in a low-power design, smaller dimensions allow the use of a large number of transistors, a high transition frequency (fT) is accepted as an almighty-good, opening a way to a design of the amplifiers w...

in this paper, a new high dynamic range digitally-controlled oscillator (dco) for all-dpll systems is proposed. the proposed dco is based on using a δς modulator as a digital-to-analog converter. using δς dac can provide a very high resolution (18-bit) control on the dco. the δς dac output is a 2-level pulse signal that needs to be filtered for cancelling the out of band shaped noise. the used ...

Entropy as a measure of uncertainty was used to represent the results of the wavelet technique in electrochemical noise analysis. The experimental signals were obtained by recording the electrochemical potential and current noise of 7075 aluminum alloy in 3.5% NaCl solution. The electrochemical potential and current noise were decomposed into 16 levels using Daubechies wavelets. Wavelet output ...

a complete procedure for the design of w-band low noise amplifier in mmic technology is presented. the design is based on a simultaneously power and noise matched technique. for implementing the method, scalable bilateral transistor model parameters should be first extracted. the model is also used for transmission line utilized in the amplifier circuit. in the presented method, input/output ma...

accuracy of inertial navigation system (ins) is limited by inertial sensors imperfections. before using inertial sensors signals in the data fusion algorithm, noise removal method should be performed, in which, wavelet decomposition method is used. in this method the raw data is decomposed into high and low frequency data sets. in this study, wavelet multi-level resolution analysis (wmra) techn...

background: noise can cause permanent or temporary hearing loss. high levels of noise may stimulate the vestibular system and thereby cause disturbances in the balancing mechanism. objective: to determine the effect of long-term exposure to occupational noise on the vestibular system. methods: a dizziness questionnaire was administered to 20 factory workers who were exposed to occupational nois...
