These parameters are acquired by use of impedance spectroscopy measurements at frequencies ranging from 10 k Hz to 1 MHz and the direct current(DC) bias voltages in a range from-2 V to +2 V at room temperature are used. The main electrical parameters and dielectric parameters,such as dielectric constant(ε"), dielectric loss(ε"), loss tangent(tan δ), the real and imaginary parts of electric modulus(M and M), and alternating current(AC) electrical conductivity(σ) are affected by changing voltage and frequency. The characterizations show that some main electrical parameters usually decrease with increasing frequency because charge carriers at surface states have not enough time to fallow an external AC signal at high frequencies, and all dielectric parameters strongly depend on the voltage and frequency especially in the depletion and accumulation regions. Consequently, it can be concluded that interfacial polarization and interface charges can easily follow AC signal at low frequencies.展开更多

The spatio-temporal evolution of the discharge, the ignition time and optical emission intensities of plasma species of the RF discharge burst were investigated under different time intervals between the pulsed voltage and RF voltage in the experiment. The results show that by increasing the time interval between the pulsed discharge and RF discharge burst from 5 μs to 20 μs, the ignition time of the RF discharge burst is increased from 1.6 μs to 2.0 μs, and the discharge spatial profile of RF discharge in the ignition phase changes from a double-hump shape to a bell-shape. The light emission intensity at 706 nm and 777 nm at different time intervals indicates that the RF discharge burst ignition of the depends on the number of residual plasma species generated in the pulsed discharges.展开更多

Exper...The perylene (C20H12) layer effect on the electrical and dielectric properties of Al/p-Si (MS) and Al/perylene/p-Si (MPS) diodes have been investigated and compared in the frequency range of 0.7 kHz-2 MHz. Experimental results show that C-V characteristics give an anomalous peak for two structures at low frequencies due to interface states (Nss) and series resistance (Rs). The increases in C and G/o3 at low frequencies confirm that the charges at interface can easily follow an ac signal and yield excess capacitance and conductance. The frequency-dependent dielectric constant (er) and dielectric loss (e') are subtracted using C and G/co data at 1.5 V. The eI and e" values are found to be strongly dependent on frequency and voltage, and their large values at low frequencies can be attributed to the excess polarization coming from charges at traps. Plots of ln(o'ac)-ln(w) for two structures have two linear regions, with slopes of 0.369 and 1.166 for MS, and of 0.077 and 1.061 for MPS, respectively. From the C 2-V characteristics, the doping acceptor atom concentration (NA) and barrier height (,~) for Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) 1.303 ~ 1015 cm-3, and 1.10 and I. 13 eV, respectively. of MS and MPS types are also obtained to be 1.484 ~ 1015展开更多

The physical mechanisms of excess carrier injection and HPM-induced latch-up are proposed. Analysis on upset characteristic under pulsed wave reveals increasing susceptibility under shorter-width pulsed wave which satisfies experimental data, and the dependence of upset threshold on pulse repetitive frequency(PRF) is believed to be due to the accumulation of excess carriers. Moreover, the trend that HPMinduced latch-up is more likely to happen in shallow-well device is proposed.Finally, the process of self-recovery which is ever-reported in experiment with its correlation with supply voltage and power level is elaborated, and the conclusions are consistent with reported experimental results.展开更多

This paper presents the probabilistic delay fault model (PDFM), which describes the probability of an error occurring as a function of the power supply voltage and the clock period in synchronous CMOS circuits. In a wide range of applica- tions (graphic, video, digital filtering, etc.), errors occurring with low probability and not remaining for a long time are acceptable. For combinational circuits which have long critical paths with low probability of excita- tion, a performance increase is achieved with a certain rate of errors determined by the PDFM compared with the traditional design which considers the worst case. The PDFM applied to array multipliers and ripple carry adders shows the agreement of the predicted probabilities with simulated delay histograms to support the practicality of using the PDFM to select power supply voltage and clock period in dynamic voltage fre- quency scaling circuits with tolerable error rates.展开更多

Recently, multicore has emerged to be an energy efficient architecture that exploits parallelisms in modern applications. However, as the number of cores on a single chip continues to increase, it has been a grand challenge on how to effectively manage the energy efficiency of multicore-based systems. In this paper, based on the voltage island and dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) techniques, we investigate the energy efficiency of block-partitioned multieore processors, where cores are grouped into blocks with the cores on one block sharing a DVFS- enabled power supply. Depending on the number of cores on each block, we study both symmetric and asymmetric block configurations. We develop a system-level power model (which can support various power management techniques) and derive both block- and system-wide energy-efficient frequencies for systems with block-partitioned multieore processors. Based on the power model, we prove that, for embarrassingly parallel applications, having all cores on a single block can achieve the same energy savings as that of the individual block configuration (where each core forms a single block and has its own power supply). However, for applications with limited degrees of parallelism, we show the superiority of the buddy-asymmetric block configuration, where the number of required blocks (and power supplies) is logarithmically related to the number of cores on the chip, in that it can achieve the same amount of energy savings as that of the individual block configuration. The energy efficiency of different block configurations is further evaluated through extensive simulations with both synthetic as well as a real life application.展开更多

文摘This paper presents a comprehensive review of near-threshold wide-voltage designs on memory,resilient logic designs,low voltage Radio Frequency(RF)circuits,and timing analysis.With the prosperous development of wearable applications,low power consumption has become one of the primary challenges for IC designs.To improve the power efficiency,the prefer scheme is to operate at an ultra low voltage of Near Threshold Voltage(NTV).For the performance variation and degradation,a self-adaptive margin assignment technique is proposed in the low voltage.The proposed technique tracks the circuit states in real time and dynamically allocates voltage margins,reducing the minimum supply voltage and achieving higher energy efficiency.The self-adaptive margin assignment technique can be used in Static Random Access Memory(SRAM),digital circuits,and analog/RF circuits.Based on the self-adaptive margin assignment technique,the minimum voltage in the 40 nm CMOS process is reduced to 0.6 V or even lower,and the energy efficiency is increased by 3–4 times.
文摘Sampled SPWM is an excellent VVVF method of motor speed control, meanwhile the harmonic components of the output wave impairs its applications in practice. A designated harmonic suppression technology is presented for sampled SPWM, which is an improved algorithm for the harmonic suppression in high voltage and high frequency spectrum. As the technology is applied in whole speed adjusting range, the voltage can be conveniently controlled and high frequency harmonic of SP WM is also improved.
文摘This work considers the problem of decentralized control of inverter-based ac micro-grid in different operation modes.The main objectives are to(i)design decentralized frequency and voltage controllers,to gather with power sharing,without information exchange between microsources(ii)design passive dynamic controllers which ensure stability of the entire microgrid system(iii)capture nonlinear,interconnected and large-scale dynamic of the micro-grid system with meshed topology as a port-Hamiltonian formulation(iv)expand the property of shifted-energy function in the context of decentralized control of ac micro-grid(v)analysis of system stability in large signal point of view.More precisely,to deal with nonlinear,interconnected and large-scale structure of micro-grid systems,the port-Hamiltonian formulation is used to capture the dynamic of micro-grid components including microsource,distribution line and load dynamics as well as interconnection controllers.Furthermore,to deal with large signal stability problem of the microgrid system in the grid-connected and islanded conditions,the shifted-Hamiltonian energy function is served as a storage function to ensure incremental passivity and stability of the microgrid system.Moreover,it is shown that the aggregating of the microgrid dynamic and the decentralized controller dynamics satisfies the incremental passivity.Finally,the effectiveness of the proposed controllers is evaluated through simulation studies.The different scenarios including grid-connected and islanded modes as well as transition between both modes are simulated.The simulation conforms that the decentralized control dynamics are suited to achieve the desired objective of frequency synchronization,voltage control and power sharing in the grid-connected and islanded modes.The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.
文摘The proposed system uses an algorithm that works on the admittance of the system,for estimating the reference values of generated currents for an off-grid wind power harnessing unit(WPHU).The controller controls the voltage and maintains the frequency within the limits while working with both linear and nonlinear loads for varying wind speeds.The admittance algorithm is simple and easy to implement and works very efficiently to generate the triggering signals for the controller of the WPHU.The wind power harnessing unit comprising of a squirrel cage induction generator,a star-delta transformer,a battery storage system and the control unit are modeled using Matlab/Simulink R2019.An isolated transformer with a star-delta configuration connects the load and the generator circuit with the controller to reduce the dc bus voltage and mitigate current in the neutral line.The response of the system during the dynamic loading depends on the best possible compensator proportional-integral(PI)gains.The antlion optimization algorithm is compared with particle swarm optimization and grey wolf optimization and is found to have the advantages of good convergence,high efficiency and fast calculating speed.It is therefore used to extract the optimal values of frequency and voltage PI gains.The simulation results of the control algorithm for the WPHU are validated in a real-time environment in a dSpace1104 laboratory set up.This algorithm is proven to have a quick response,maintain the required frequency,suppress the current harmonics,regulate voltage,help in balancing the load and compensating for the neutral current.

文摘Decreasing the power supply voltage in dynamic voltage frequency scaling to save power con- sumption may introduce extra delays in CMOS circuits, which may cause errors. This paper presents the probabilistic delay fault model (PDFM), which describes the probability of an error occurring as a function of the power supply voltage and the clock period in synchronous CMOS circuits. In a wide range of applica- tions (graphic, video, digital filtering, etc.), errors occurring with low probability and not remaining for a long time are acceptable. For combinational circuits which have long critical paths with low probability of excita- tion, a performance increase is achieved with a certain rate of errors determined by the PDFM compared with the traditional design which considers the worst case. The PDFM applied to array multipliers and ripple carry adders shows the agreement of the predicted probabilities with simulated delay histograms to support the practicality of using the PDFM to select power supply voltage and clock period in dynamic voltage fre- quency scaling circuits with tolerable error rates.

文摘Due to the increasing power consumption in modern computing systems, energy management has become an important research area in the last decade. Recently, multicore has emerged to be an energy efficient architecture that exploits parallelisms in modern applications. However, as the number of cores on a single chip continues to increase, it has been a grand challenge on how to effectively manage the energy efficiency of multicore-based systems. In this paper, based on the voltage island and dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) techniques, we investigate the energy efficiency of block-partitioned multieore processors, where cores are grouped into blocks with the cores on one block sharing a DVFS- enabled power supply. Depending on the number of cores on each block, we study both symmetric and asymmetric block configurations. We develop a system-level power model (which can support various power management techniques) and derive both block- and system-wide energy-efficient frequencies for systems with block-partitioned multieore processors. Based on the power model, we prove that, for embarrassingly parallel applications, having all cores on a single block can achieve the same energy savings as that of the individual block configuration (where each core forms a single block and has its own power supply). However, for applications with limited degrees of parallelism, we show the superiority of the buddy-asymmetric block configuration, where the number of required blocks (and power supplies) is logarithmically related to the number of cores on the chip, in that it can achieve the same amount of energy savings as that of the individual block configuration. The energy efficiency of different block configurations is further evaluated through extensive simulations with both synthetic as well as a real life application.
