The second generation current conveyor CCII is introduced in this paper as a most versatile analog building block for realization of many other active circuits and applications. Short overview of interesting connections, using modular approach of design, with CCII are presented here, as well as two topologies of the conveyor, realized in CMOS technology, including their measured parameters.

Sorting is an important thing in which any items or products can be differentiated based on their size, height and color. In order to sort items, we need to be able to compare them, i.e., to determine whether the object coming through the conveyor is smaller, greater, or equal to the respected height. Here we are going to do a simple object sorting system using the Programmable Logic Controller...

In this paper, a solution is presented for a robotic manipulation problem in industrial settings. The problem is sensing objects on a conveyor belt, identifying the target, planning and tracking an interception trajectory between end effector and the target. Such a problem could be formulated as combining object recognition, tracking and interception. For this purpose, we integrated a vision sy...

Composites of wind speeds, equivalent potential temperature, mean sea level pressure, vertical velocity, and relative humidity have been produced for the 100 most intense extratropical cyclones in the Northern Hemisphere winter for the 40-yr ECMWF Re-Analysis (ERA-40) and the high resolution global environment model (HiGEM). Features of conceptual models of cyclone structure—the warm conveyor b...

In recent years, conveyor belt transport systems have taken on a new significance due to numerous research studies on innovative design solutions. The application of these new developed solutions leads to considerable reduction in operational costs of transport systems, while ensuring their high reliability and service life at the same time. Nonetheless, there are still areas that pose challeng...

In this brief, it is shown that two of the recently reported voltage mode and current mode current conveyor-based all-pass circuits can be generated from the well known single input op amp all-pass configuration. It is also found that two other voltage mode current conveyor-based all-pass circuits are related directly to the differential input op amp all-pass structure. Several new grounded cap...

It is well known that a °oating inductor circuit is realized from a grounded inductor circuit by replacing the operational ampli ̄er by a °oating operational transconductance ampli ̄er. This idea is extended to transform current conveyor grounded inductors to °oating inductors by replacing the current conveyor by the recently introduced °oating current conveyor. Several examples are considered an...

New nullor-based models are introduced to describe the behavior of the first generation current conveyor (CCI), second generation current conveyor (CCII), third generation current conveyor (CCIII), their inverting equivalents (ICCI(II)(III)), and/or their multiple output topologies (MO(I)CCI(II)(III)). These nullor equivalents include only grounded resistors to improve the formulation of equati...

background: cancer registries are important infrastructure for cancer control programs. however most developing countries lack population based cancer registry. in iran there cancer incidence is estimated based on pathology-based cancer registry. in this study we evaluated results of the nationwide pathology-based cancer registry in iran. materials and methods: we compared age-standardized inci...
