In this work, an InGaP/GaAsSb/GaAs DHBT with carbon doping up to 4E19/cm GaAsSb base was studied. A current gain of 115 at the collector current density of 25KA/cm2 was achieved for the Rbs of about 530ohm/sq. Over 100mV turn-on voltage and knee voltage reduction and 2/3 offset voltage were obtained for the GaAsSb based HBT compared with the standard InGaP/GaAs SHBT. The DC gain of the device i...

In this paper, a novel high step-up DC-DC converter is proposed for sustainable energy system. The proposed converter uses coupled inductor and switched-capacitor technique. The capacitors are charged in parallel and are discharged in series by the coupled-inductor to achieve high stepup voltage gain with appropriate duty ratio. Besides, the voltage stress on the main switch are reduced with a ...

This paper proposes a module of a high gain and high swing 2-stage amplifier. It is suitable for building a general operational amplifier in a modular fashion with various optional performances. The proposed module alone offers opened-loop voltage gain up to 124 dB and GBW of 10 MHz without loading conditions.

In this paper an analytic approach to estimate the nonlinearity of radix-4 pipelined analog-to-digital converters due to the circuit non-idealities is presented. Output voltage of each stage is modeled as sum of the ideal output voltage and non-ideal output voltage (error voltage), in which non-ideal output voltage is created by capacitor mismatch, comparator offset, input offset, and finite ga...

A new high step-up converter is projected for a photovoltaic system. An asymmetrical interleaved high step-up converter achieves high step up gain through a voltage multiplier module. The voltage multiplier module is organised by a conventional boost converter and coupled inductors. A conventional boost converter is incorporated to achieve a considerably higher voltage conversion ratio. This co...

In this paper, very high frequency (VHF) current and voltage biquadratic lowpass filters implemented directly by the linear wideband finite-gain current and voltage amplifiers, respectively, are proposed and analyzed. A new Q-enhancement circuit which consists of a finite-gain wideband tunable voltage amplifier and a Miller capacitor is also proposed. It can increase the maximum-gain frequency ...

The renewable energy sources such as PV modules, fuel cells or energy storage devices such as super capacitors or batteries deliver output voltage at the range of around 12 to 70 VDC. In order to connect them to the grid the voltage level should be adjusted according to the electrical network standards in the countries. First of all the voltage should be stepped up to sufficient level at which ...
