1. First, wire up the circuit as shown in the diagram above, with the resistor, inductor, and capacitor connected in series to one another and the signal generator. Use the output of the Science Workshop 750 as the signal generator. 2. Start with the following values for resistance, inductance, and capacitance: • R = 500 Ω; L = 100 mH = 0.1 H; C = 1 μF = 1 x 10 F 3. Throughout the experiment yo...

In order to miniaturize a very low-level dc current amplifier and to speed up its output response speed, we proposed to employ the switched-capacitor circuit (SCC) as its negative feedback circuit, instead of the conventionally used high-ohmage resistor. However, in the case of using SCC, the output waveform had unnecessary components. To decrease the effect of these components and to speed up ...

Most existing power  converters and industrial motor drive systems draw non-sinusoidal currents from the supply. Non-sinusoidal currents contained harm harmonics disturb the power supply which it causes serious concern for reliability. Other equipments that use the same power supply are adversely affected. This paper suggests the operation and performance of a new modified AC/DC converter that ...

Micromachined gyroscope always contains two groups of capacitors, one is the driving capacitor, which is used to drive the micromachined gyroscope, to make sure the gyroscope could oscillate along the driving direction. The other is so called the sensing capacitor, which used to detect the displacement along the sensing direction, in order to detect the input angle velocity. Since there are som...

In this work a low power, low voltage and high gain operational amplifier is proposed. For this purpose a negative resistance structure is used in parallel with output to improve the achievable gain. Because of using self cascode transistors in the output, the proposed structure remains approximately constant in a relatively large output voltage swing causing an invariable gain. To evaluate the...

It is shown that self-heating of electrolytic capacitors causes the output current of a capacitor bank to increase with successive shots even though the charge voltage is held constant. Self heating of only 10 °C can cause a near tripling in the gas output of the gas puffing valves commonly used in spheromak research. By using metallized polypropylene film capacitors instead of electrolytic cap...

The series capacitor buck converter is a dc-dc converter topology that uniquely merges a switched capacitor circuit and a multiphase buck converter. Many of the challenges faced by conventional buck converters are overcome by this converter topology. This enables efficient, high frequency operation and significantly smaller solution size. The series capacitor buck converter has beneficial chara...

A novel high step-up DC-DC converter with coupled-inductor and switched-capacitor techniques is proposed in this paper. The capacitors are charged in parallel and are discharged in series by the coupled inductor, stacking on the output capacitor. Thus, the proposed converter can achieve high step-up voltage gain with appropriate duty ratio. Besides, the voltage spike on the main switch can be c...

Design of a high speed capacitive digital-to-analog converter (SC DAC) is presented for 65 nm CMOS technology. SC pipeline architecture is used followed by an output driver. For GHz frequency operation with output voltage swing suitable for wireless applications (300 mVpp) the DAC performance is shown to be limited by the clock feed-through and settling effects in the SC array rather than by th...
