Compared with the traditional design, this circuit provides a compensation signal whose slope varies from different duty cycles at - 40-85℃ ,and reduces the negative effect of slope compensation on the system's load capacity and transient response. A current mode PWM Boost DC-DC converter employing this slope compensation circuit is implemented in a UMC 0.6μm-BCD process. The results indicate that the circuit works well and effectively,and the load capacity is increased by 20%. The chip area of the piecewise linear slope compensation circuit is 0.01mm^2 ,which consumes only 8μA quiescent current,and the efficiency ranges up to 93%.展开更多

According to the proposed model, to obtain good performance, the doping profile in the total drift region of a RESURF LDMOS with a field plate should be piecewise linearly graded. The breakdown voltage of the proposed RESURF LDMOS with a piecewise linearly graded doping drift region is improved by 58. 8%, and the specific on-resistance is reduced by 87. 4% compared with conventional LDMOS. These results are verified by the two-dimensional process simulator Tsuprem-4 and the device simulator Medici.展开更多

The scheme is based on the shooting technique with the traditional numerical Poincare mapping and its Jacobian replaced by the piecewise analytic ones. Thus, the scheme gets rid of the requirement of the current schemes for an assumed order of the oscillator trajectory passing through different linear regions. The numerical examples in the paper demonstrate that the new scheme, compared with the current schemes, enables one to cope with more complicated dynamics of harmonically forced piecewise linear oscillators.展开更多

A PLRC-FDTD formulation for magnetized plasma which incorporates both anisotropy and frequency dispersion at the same time is presented, enabled the transient analysis of magnetized plasma media. The technique is illustrated by numerical simulations the reflection and transmission coefficients through a magnetized plasma layer. The results show that the PLRC-FDTD method has significantly improved the accuracy over the original RC method.展开更多

A new family of twice continuously differentiable piecewise smooth functions are used to smooth the objective function of uncon- strained SVMs. The three-order piecewise smooth support vector machine (TPWSSVMd) is proposed. The piecewise functions can get higher and higher approximation accuracy as required with the increase of parameter d. The global convergence proof of TPWSSVMd is given with the rough set theory. TPWSSVMd can efficiently handle large scale and high dimensional problems. Nu- merical results demonstrate TPWSSVMa has better classification performance and learning efficiency than other competitive base- lines.展开更多
