Low-voltage wide gm adjustable range highly linear BiCMOS OTA
A low distortion low-voltage BiCMOS OTA with wide gm adjustment range and constant input range is presented. It is based on a highly linear voltage-to-current converter input stage merged with translinear loops that implement linear electronically programmable current mirrors. Experimental results are provided that confirm the characteristics of the proposed OTA with a single 1.7V supply, 1.2V ...
متن کاملAnalog Encoding Voltage—A Key to Ultra-Wide Dynamic Range and Low Power CMOS Image Sensor
Usually Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) sensors that autonomously adjust their integration time to fit intra-scene illumination levels use a separate digital memory unit. This memory contains the data needed for the dynamic range. Motivated by the demands for low power and chip area reduction, we propose a different implementation of the aforementioned WDR algorithm by replacing the external digital m...
متن کاملCompact 1D-silicon photonic crystal electro-optic modulator operating with ultra-low switching voltage and energy.
We demonstrate a small foot print (600 nm wide) 1D silicon photonic crystal electro-optic modulator operating with only a 50 mV swing voltage and 0.1 fJ/bit switching energy at GHz speeds, which are the lowest values ever reported for a silicon electro-optic modulator. A 3 dB extinction ratio is demonstrated with an ultra-low 50 mV swing voltage with a total device energy consumption of 42.8 fJ...
متن کاملAdaptive dynamic range camera with reflective liquid crystal
Wide dynamic range images (WDRIs) are needed for capturing scenes which include drastic lighting changes. This paper presents a method to widen the dynamic range of a camera by using a reflective liquid crystal. The system consists of a camera and a reflective liquid crystal placed in front of the camera. By controlling the attenuation ratio of the liquid crystal, scene radiance of each pixel i...
متن کاملUltra Wide Band Liquid Crystal Polymer Microstrip Elliptical Patch Antenna
A microstrip elliptical patch antenna was designed on liquid crystal polymer substrate for ultra wide band wireless communications. The proposed ultra wide band antenna simply consist of an elliptical patch with coaxial feeding and liquid crystal polymer substrate of 3.16 permittivity and 0.004 dielectric loss tangent placed on the ground plane. At operating frequencies of 4.5, 6, 8 GHz, the pr...
