Semiconductor Research Corporation: Taking Moore's Law Into the Next Century

F ar from Silicon Valley, amid the green and rolling hills of North Carolina, is an organization that propels the multibillion dollar semiconductor industry. It's one of the few organizations to get fierce competitors like Intel, Motorola, Texas Instruments, and IBM to the same table, let alone cooperate. These companies and many others contribute fees of about $37 million annually to fund futu...

Taking the lead in research into postoperative cognitive dysfunction.

IN this issue of the Journal, Dr. Monk et al. explore the effects of surgery and anesthesia on cognitive function in both the short and medium-term postoperative period; these articles follow up investigations conducted previously by the International Study Group on Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction (ISPOCD). Using the ISPOCD measures of outcome, Monk et al. have confirmed the risk factors fo...

An Adaptive Nonlinear Controller for Speed Sensorless PMSM Taking the Iron Loss Resistance into Account (RESEARCH NOTE)

In this paper, an adaptive nonlinear controller is designed for rotor Surface Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (SPMSM) drive on the basis of Input-Output Feedback Control (IOFC), and Recursive Least Square (RLS) method. The RLS estimator detects the motor electromechanical parameters, including the motor iron loss resistance online. Moreover, a Sliding-Mode (SM) observer is developed for onli...
