A low-voltage, low-power four-quadrant analog multiplier with optimized current-efficiency is presented. Its core corresponds to a pseudodifferential cascode, gain-boosting triodetransconductor. According to a low-voltage 1.2μm CMOS n-well process, operand differential-amplitudes are 1.0Vpp and 0.32Vpp for a 1.3V-supply. Common-mode voltages are properly chosen to maximize current-efficiency to...

The power quality in electrical energy systems is very important and harmonic is the vital criterion. Traditionally Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) have been used for the harmonic distortion analysis and in the literature harmonic estimations have been made using different methods. As an alternative method, this paper suggested using Support Vector Machine (SVM...

The voltage and current THD values of the symmetric inverter operated by fundamental switching frequency are closer to the IEEE 519 standard. Some additional filter circuit is required to minimize the THD values within the specified limits. However symmetric multilevel inverter requires more number of components and driver circuits. Asymmetric multilevel inverter is proposed in this chapter to ...

OBJECTIVE A less-invasive method has been developed that may provide an alternative to monitor cardiac output from arterial pressure: beat-to-beat values of cardiac output can be obtained by pressure recording analytical method (PRAM). The purpose of this study was to assess the reliability of cardiac output determination by PRAM in cardiac surgery. METHODS Cardiac output was measured in 28 p...
