The fact that there exists a core sinusoidal oscillator at the heart of Saito’s double-screw hysteresis chaotic oscillator is demonstrated. By applying Bruton’s transformation to the active linear part of the circuit, which is shown to be a classical LC-R negative resistor sinusoidal oscillator, an inductorless realization based on a frequency-dependent negative resistor (FDNR) is obtained. The...

This thesis contributes to the computer-aided design (CAD) of spiral inductors and LC resonators with spiral inductors exploiting full-wave electromagnetic (EM) analysis. The spiral inductor is widely used in radio frequency integrated circuits (RF ICs), such as low noise amplifiers (LNA) and voltage controlled oscillators (VCO). The design of spiral inductors has a direct influence on the perf...

A high-speed multi-phase oscillator based on self-timed ring is proposed. Self-timed rings (STR) are promising approach for designing highspeed serial links and clock generators. Indeed, the architecture of STR allows us to achieve high frequencies with multiphase outputs and their oscillation frequency is not only depending on the number of stages but also on the initial state of the ring. Mor...

The paper presents a method for design of LC cross-coupled oscillators based on open-loop technique and its practical application leading to a high frequency CMOS oscillator prototype. Thanks to the proposed approach, main circuit parameters as loaded quality factor (responsible for phase noise performance of LC oscillator) and steady-state oscillation amplitude can be extracted, without the ne...

In 2004, Kim and Chan (KC) reported a decrease in the period of torsional oscillators (TO) containing samples of solid (4)He, as the temperature was lowered below 0.2 K [Kim E, Chan MHW (2004) Science 305(5692):1941-1944]. These unexpected results constituted the first experimental evidence that the long-predicted supersolid state of solid (4)He may exist in nature. The KC results were quickly ...

This paper describes the design and optimization of voltage controlled oscillators with quadrature outputs. Systematic design of fully integrated LC-VCOs with a high inductance tank leads to a cross-coupled double core LC-VCO as the optimal solution in terms of power consumption. Futhermore, a novel fully differential frequency tuning concept is introduced to ease high integration. The concepts...

Enhancement of heat and mass transfer and decrease of energy dissipation are great necessities of the evolution of fluid flow devices. Utilizing oscillatory or pulsatile fluid flow for periodic disturbing of velocity and thermal boundary layers is one of the methods with exciting results. Passive methods of generating oscillatory flow are preferred to active methods because of simplicity, no ne...

the prediction of the joint angle position, especially during tremor bursts, can be useful for detecting, tracking, and forecasting tremors. thus, this research proposes a new model for predicting the wrist joint position during rhythmic bursts and inter‑burst intervals. since a tremor is an approximately rhythmic and roughly sinusoidal movement, neural oscillators have been selected to underli...

This article is about mixed-mode multiphase sinusoidal oscillators that are made up of differential voltage current conveyor transconductance amplifier (DVCCTA) and use all the grounded passive components. The proposed provide a single DVCCTA, resistor capacitor for each phase which suitable integrated circuit implementation. In addition, outputs generate currents voltages simultaneously. signa...
