[ 1 ] - A Simple General-purpose I-V Model for All Operating Modes of Deep Submicron MOSFETs

A simple general-purpose I-V model for all operating modes of deep-submicron MOSFETs is presented. Considering the most dominant short channel effects with simple equations including few extra parameters, a reasonable trade-off between simplicity and accuracy is established. To further improve the accuracy, model parameters are optimized over various channel widths and full range of operating v...

[ 2 ] - The Influence of DC-Link Voltage on Commutation Torque Ripple of Brushless DC Motors with Two-Segment Pulse-width Modulation Control Method

The commutation process causes current ripple to be generated in the drive system of brushless DC (BLDC) motor. This, in turn, leads to output torque ripple. Mechanical vibration and acoustic noise are its influences which are undesirable phenomenon in some applications. A new method is presented in this paper which reduces torque ripple and commutation period in the entire range of motor speed...

[ 3 ] - Improving Linearity of CMOS Variable-gain Amplifier Using Third-order Intermodulation Cancellation Mechanism and Intermodulation Distortion Sinking Techniques

This paper presents an improved linearity variable-gain amplifier (VGA) in 0.18-µm CMOS technology. The lineari­ty improvement is resulted from employing a new combinational technique, which utilizes third-order-intermodulation (IM3) cancellation mechanism using second-order-intermodul­ation (­IM2) injection, and intermodulation distortion (IMD) sinking techniques. The proposed VGA gain cell co...

[ 4 ] - Low Settling Time All Digital DLL For VHF Application

Settling time is one of the most important parameter in design of DLLs. In this paper we propose a new high speed with low settling time Delay Locked Loop (DLL) in which a digital signal processor (DSP) is used instead of using phase-frequency detector, charge pump and loop filter in conventional DLL. To have better settling time, PRP conjugate gradient algorithm is used to optimize delay of ea...

[ 5 ] - Using a Novel Concept of Potential Pixel Energy for Object Tracking

Abstract   In this paper, we propose a new method for kernel based object tracking which tracks the complete non rigid object. Definition the union image blob and mapping it to a new representation which we named as potential pixels matrix are the main part of tracking algorithm. The union image blob is constructed by expanding the previous object region based on the histogram feature. The pote...

[ 6 ] - Dual Phase Detector Based Delay Locked Loop for High Speed Applications

In this paper a new architecture for delay locked loops will be presented.  One of problems in phase-frequency detectors (PFD) is static phase offset or reset path delay. The proposed structure decreases the jitter resulted from PFD by switching two PFDs. In this new architecture, a conventional PFD is used before locking of DLL to decrease the amount of phase difference between input and outpu...

[ 7 ] - Statistical Background Modeling Based on Velocity and Orientation of Moving Objects

Background modeling is an important step in moving object detection and tracking. In this paper, we propose a new statistical approach in which, a sequence of frames are selected according to velocity and direction of some moving objects and then an initial background is modeled, based on the detection of gray pixel's value changes. To have used this sequence of frames, no estimator or distribu...

[ 8 ] - Fast Mux-based Adder with Low Delay and Low PDP

Adders, as one of the major components of digital computing systems, have a strong influence on their performance. There are various types of adders, each of which uses a different algorithm to do addition with a certain delay. In addition to low computational delay, minimizing power consumption is also a main priority in adder circuit design. In this paper, the proposed adder is divided into s...
