Abslrucb-New CMOS differential logic circuits, callsd asynchronous latched CMOS differential logic (ALCDL) circuits, are proposed and analyzed. The ALCDL can implement a complex function in a single gate and achieve high operation speed without dc power dissipation. New CMOS differential latches, which can be used to prevent extra transitions and reduce the power dissipation, are also proposed....

Abstract This paper presents a comparative EMI susceptibility study of different integrated operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) topologies. We analyzed conventional well-known topologies based on the Miller OTA and folded cascode concepts with lower power consumption. The output dc voltage shifts induced by supply input common mode high frequency disturbances are presented. On top comp...

A simple circuit technique to realize differential voltage-to-frequency converter suitable for telemetry is presented. The realization method employs second-generation current conveyors in connection with Set-Reset latch to generate the oscillating output signal whose frequency is proportional to the difference between two input voltages. The converter gain can be easily adjusted through the va...

the harmonic in distribution systems becomes an important problem due to an increase in nonlinear loads. this paper presents a new approach based on a graph algorithm for optimum placement of passive harmonic filters in a multi-bus system, which suffers from harmonic current sources. the objective of this paper is to minimize the network loss, the cost of the filter and the total harmonic disto...

In this letter a useful CMOS fully-differential buffer topology is presented. The proposed solution, performing the common mode feedback (CMFB) operation, shows a rail-to-rail characteristic, so it is particularly suitable for low-voltage (± 0.75V) low-power (<400 μW) applications. The simulated results have shown excellent general performance, evaluated in terms of suitable figures of merit (F...

The stomatogastric ganglion of the crab, Cancer borealis, is modulated by >20 different substances, including numerous neuropeptides. One of these peptides, proctolin, activates an inward current that shows strong outward rectification (Golowasch and Marder, 1992). Decreasing the extracellular Ca(2+) concentration linearizes the current-voltage curve of the proctolin-induced current. We used vo...
