In this paper, we propose a circuit that computes the area under a difference waveform and produces it's analog value as output. The transient waveforms pair from which the difference is computed is given as input to the circuit. The circuit is proposed as a hardware solution for a device testing technique called Transient Signal Analysis.

As far as the design of SPDs is concerned, the need exists for simplifying its circuit structure in fulfilment of the prerequisite condition of protective reliability. The circuit simplification for SPDs is of benefit to lower the cost of manufacture and reduce the size of chassis. Considering that the traditional SPD that has been extensively used on single-phase AC power supply lines requires...

A recent model of an internally or externally controlled ideal switch is described. General nonperiodical switching is considered. No limitations regarding the circuit structure and complexity are imposed. Application to variety of electronic circuits is demonstrated. Special attention is paid to electronic power circuits such as switched power supplies and converters.

A digital CMOS buffer circuit with a voltage transfer characteristic (VTC) with low threshold voltage detection, hysteresis, and high noise immunity is presented. The circuit is capable of restoring slow transition times and distorted input signals with a minimum delay penalty, offering at the same time high noise immunity to glitches induced either through capacitive coupling or from the power...

Introduction This detailed section contains an in-depth explanation of the numerous PWM functions, and how to maximize their usefulness. It covers a multitude of practical circuit design considerations, such as slope compensation, gate drive circuitry, external control functions, synchronization, and paralleling current mode controlled modules. Circuit diagrams and simplified equations for the ...

This paper presents a new structure to provide the ability for power sharing of two Z-source inverters. According to the operation principles of Z-source inverters, only one input source supplies the circuit, which is a limitation particularly for the stand alone systems feeded by limited output power such as photovoltaics and feul cells. Furthermore; if one source fails to supply,  the lo...

In today’s VLSI system design, power consumption is gaining more attention as compared to performance and area. This is due to battery life in portable devices and operating frequency of the design. Power consumption mainly consists of static power, dynamic power, leakage power and short circuit power. Dynamic power is dominant among all which depends on many factors viz. power supply, load cap...
