A design optimization method is presented which utilizes automatic optimization capabilities within TCAD frameworks. This method is applied to doping profile optimizations of ultra-low-power CMOS transistors with 0.25 and 0.1 μm gate lengths. Two different performance goals are utilized, to maximize the drive current of an NMOS transistor and to minimize the gate delay time of a CMOS inverter s...

 This paper presents the development of a control scheme for a multilevel diode-clamped converter connected in a series-parallel fashion to the electrical system such that it can compensate for deviations in utility voltage (sag, surge, and unbalance) and act as a harmonic and/or reactive current source for a load. New carrier-based multilevel pulse width modulation (PWM) techniques are identi...

A new CMOS current controlled ring oscillator is investigated. It is based on a 3 stage ring oscillator. Each stage uses a simple NMOS for switching a current source to charge a capacitor and discharging it thereby generating a ramp output. Its oscillation frequency depends on the current source. This simple circuit can have a wide tuning range but has some non-linearity problem. A modification...

Abstract-A new control approach for three-phase gridconnected inverters is presented. The inverter stage is a standard three-phase half bridge. During each 60° of line cycle, the three-phase half bridge can be de-coupled into parallel-connected a dual-buck inverter. Based on Onecycle control, a Unified Constant-frequency Integration controller (UCI) is proposed for the dual-buck inverter. The c...

Abstract— According to the rules of quantum mechanics there is a non-vanishing probability of for an electron to tunnel through a thin insulating barrier or a thin capacitor which is not possible according to the laws of classical physics. Tunneling of electron through a thin insulating barrier or tunnel junction is a random event and the magnitude of current flowing due to the tunneling of ele...
