This paper proposes a simple lumped circuit modeling approach for describing noncontact EMI coupling mechanisms in switching power converters. The resulting model assumes a minimum number of noise sources and contains essential coupling paths that allow easy physical interpretations. Essentially, all capacitive couplings are represented by an equivalent noise voltage source and six coupling imp...

A transimpedance ampli er with nominal performance of 355MHz bandwidth, 20.6k transresistance, total equivalent input current noise of 43.1nA rms, and power dissipation of 20.7mW is presented.

The fundamental limitations of photoacoustic microscopy for detecting optically absorbing molecules are investigated both theoretically and experimentally. We experimentally demonstrate noise-equivalent detection sensitivities of 160,000 methylene blue molecules (270 zeptomol or 2.7×10-19  mol) and 86,000 oxygenated hemoglobin molecules (140 zeptomol) using narrowband continuous-wave photoacous...

Background: The noise caused by traffic is an increasingly prominent feature of urban environments. However, limited studies have been focused on the assessment of exposure-response relationship between road traffic noise exposure and driving behaviors in Iran. The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence of the violations caused by road traffic noise exposure in Qazvin, Iran. Methods...

The power noise of a cw Nd:YAG laser system was measured at radio frequencies using the optical ac coupling technique. An additional mode cleaner in the setup allowed a high optical ac coupling amplification of 62.3. For the first time, to our knowledge, a sensitivity of 1.1×10⁻¹⁰ Hz(-1/2) relative power noise was achieved corresponding to an equivalent detected photocurrent of 32 A. High preci...

In wireless channel the noise has a zero mean. This channel property can be used in the enhancement of the noise performance in the digital receivers by oversampling the received signal and calculating the decision variable based on the time average of more than one sample of the received signal. The averaging process will reduce the effect of the noise in the decision variable that will approa...

-The optimization of the input MOSFET for charge amplifiers in deep submicron technologies is discussed. After a review of the traditional approach, the impact of properly modeling the equivalent series noise and gate capacitance of the MOSFET is presented. It is shown that the minimum channel length and the maximum available power are not always the best choice in terms of resolution. Also, in...
