Design of active inductor-based butterworth and chebyshev microwave bandpass filters in standard 0.18µm-CMOS technology
Get PDFIn this paper we propose a synthesis of microwave active filters having Butterworth and Chebyshev responses in the frequency range 1GHz-2GHz. The filter fundamental block, used to build an active inductor, consists of CMOS-based Operational Transconductance Amplifier (OTA) circuits. These amplifiers are made out of simple current mirror using MOS transistors. The simulation procedure has been carried out through PSPICE software showing good performances regarding scattering parameters in terms insertion losses, of out-of-band rejection and phase
Design and software characterization of finFET based full adders
Get PDFAdder is the most important arithmetic block that are used in all processors. Most of the logical circuits till today were designed using Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFET’s). In order to reduce chip area, leakage power and to increase switching speed, MOSFET’s were continuously scaled down. Further scaling below 45nm, MOSFET’s suffers from Short Channel Effects (SCE’s) which leads to degraded performance of the device. Here the Performance of 28T and 16T MOSFET based 1-bit full adder cell is characterized and compared with FinFET based 28T and 16T 1-bit full adders at various technology nodes using HSPICE software. Results show that FinFET based full adder design gives better performance in terms of speed, power and reliability compared to MOSFET based full adder designs. Hence FinFET are promising candidates and better replacement for MOSFET

An Ultra Low Power CMOS Sigma Delta ADC Modulator for System-on-chip (SoC) Temperature Sensor for Aerospace Applications
Get PDFIn the current paper, an accurate with low power consumed sigma delta (ΣΔ) analog to digital converter has been designed for the aerospace applications. The sigma delta ADC has been designed in such a way that it works fine with consumption of low power and high accuracy in the system on chip (SoC) temperature sensor where the analog output from the temperature sensor unit will be the fed to the analog to digital converter. To check the robustness, different parameters with variation has been analyzed. The high gain operational amplifier plays a vital role in the circuits design. Hence, a 30 MHz operational amplifier has also been proposed whose unity gain bandwidth (UGB) has been observed of about 30 MHz, 51.1dB dc gain and slew rate (SR) of about 27.9 V/ μsec. For the proper operation of the circuit, a power supply of +1.3V to -1.3V is used. The proposed sigma delta ADC modulator is showing better results over previously designed modulator in terms of power consumption, error and performance. The design and simulation have been tested with the help of cadence analog design environment with UMC 90nm CMOS process technology
Universal Automobile Headlight Control Module for High Beam Adaptation during Night Vision Travel an Embedded Design Approach
Get PDFRoad accidents during night travel increases day by day and vision impairment due to high beam contributes to the majority of the total fatalities. Headlights of vehicles pose a great danger during night driving. [1] The drivers of most vehicles use high/bright beam while driving at night. This causes a discomfort to the person travelling from the opposite direction. The driver experiences a sudden glare caused due to the high intense headlight beam from the other vehicle coming towards him from the opposite direction. We are expected to dim the headlight to avoid this glare. This glare causes a temporary blindness to a person resulting in road accidents during the night. To avoid such incidents, an embedded prototype of Automatic Headlight adaptor module is proposed. This embedded module automatically switches the high beam to low beam and returns backs to high beam, thus reducing the sudden glare effect. It also eliminates the requirement of manual switching by the driver to switch back to low beam Universal Headlight adaptor module is a unique solution to achieve the above objective, the headlight intensity of the incoming vehicles causing the glare is automatically attenuated to low beam wirelessly by the nearby vehicles affected by high beam. The interconnected modules at every vehicle independently takes the decision on the head light control of the source vehicle causing the glare by evaluating various parameters like vehicle speed, current GPS location, direction of vehicle etc
Impacts of Embedded Generation on Distribution Network Behavior
Get PDFThis paper explores the impacts of multiple embedded generators penetration on distribution system behavior. For this rationale, a IEEE-13 bus distribution feeder was modeled and investigates by assimilating different types of embedded generation (EG) sources. Different scenarios were implemented in which WIND, SOFC FUEL CELL, SOLAR and MICRO TURBINE plants were modeled with high variability of load and generation to observe their impacts on system’s protection, unsymmetrical faults also consider observing impacts effectively. To eradicate the impacts on distribution system with presence of EG’s and distribution system undergone in the event of faults, in this paper primarily reverse power due to EG integration is estimated and sensed with reverse power relay, Further two types of Superconducting Fault Current Limiters Passive resonance CB (PRCB) SFCL and Inverse current injection CB (I-CB are proposed and results are compared for amended solution in mitigating fault current magnitude and over voltages, Finally penetrations levels are computed mathematically and All the modeling and simulations were carried out using MATLAB SIMULINK tool
A Novel Face Recognition Algorithm Using Gabor - based KPCA
Get PDFThe Gabor wavelets are used to extract facial features, and then a doubly nonlinear mapping kernel PCA (DKPCA) is proposed to perform feature transformation and face recognition. The conventional kernel PCA nonlinearly maps an input image into a high-dimensional feature space in order to make the mapped features linearly separable. However, this method does not consider the structural characteristics of the face images, and it is difficult to determine which nonlinear mapping is more effective for face recognition. In this work, a new method of nonlinear mapping, which is performed in the original feature space, is defined. The proposed nonlinear mapping not only considers the statistical properties of the input features, but also adopts an Eigen mask to emphasize those important facial feature points The proposed algorithm is evaluated based on the Yale database, the AR database, the ORL database and the YaleB database
Metal-Embedded SU-8 Slab Techniques for Low-Resistance Micromachined Inductors
Get PDFThis work presents new fabrication technique for micro power-inductors by using metal-embedded SU-8 slab techniques. This techniques used X-ray lithography to fabricate high aspect-ratio LIGA-like micro-structures in form of embedded structure in SU-8 slab and applied for inductor’s winding fabrication with aspect-ratio of 10. Thishigh-aspect ratiostructure can provide very low resistance winding but preserve small form factor and low profile. Inductors were designed as pot-core structures with8 μm-thick permalloy core and 250 μm-thick copper winding. 4-types of inductors were fabricated including 3, 5, 10 and 16 turns in the area of 1.8 mm2 to 9.5 mm2. All inductors have overall heights of 370 μm, measured inductance value in a range of 70 nH to 1.3 μH at 1 MHz and DC resistance value of 30 mΩ to 336 mΩ for 3 turns to 16 turns respectively. From this result, high aspect-ratio inductors show good results including low-resistance, high inductance, and a small form factor as expected.
