An Autozeroing Amplifier Using Pfet Hot-electron Injection

We have developed an ampliier which removes its "ooset" as a natural part of its operation by modifying the charge on a oating gate. The charge on the oating gate is adapted by a combination of electron tunneling and hot-electron injection , resulting in a nonlinear high-pass lter with a cutoo frequency less than 1 Hz. We show experimental data from this autozeroing ampliier for various input w...

Using Hot Carrier Injection for Embedded Non-volatile Memory

Since the invention of NAND Flash memory in the 1980’s, non-volatile memory (NVM) has touched all aspects of our daily life. Applications for NVM is growing everyday from handy data storage devices like a USB Flash Drive to High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) and its high-bandwidth digital content protection (HDCP) encryption algorithms to firmware storage in a variety of digital device...

Adaptive Control of Three – Tank – System Using Polynomial Methods

Adaptive control of a three – tank system laboratory model is presented. The objective laboratory model is a two input – two output (TITO) nonlinear system. It is based on experience with authentic industrial control applications. Two control algorithms utilizing polynomial theory and pole – placement were applied and compared. The first one is based on the traditional 1DOF (one – degree of fre...
