A Novel Sampling Switch Suitable for Low-Voltage Analog-to-Digital Converters

A novel, highly linear sampling switch suitable for low-voltage operation is proposed. This switch not only eliminates the nonlinearity introduced by gate-source voltage variation, but also reduces the nonlinearity resuiting from threshold voltage variation, which has not been accomplished in earlier low-voltage sampling switches. This is achieved by adopting a replica transistor with the same threshold voltage as the sampling transistor. The effectiveness of this technique is demonstrated by a prototype design of a sampling switch in 0. 35μm. The proposed sampling switch achieves a spurious free dynamic range of 111dB for a 0. 2MHz, 1.2Vp-p input signal, sampled at a rate of 2MS/s,about 18dB over the Bootstrapped switch. Also, the on-resistance variation is reduced by 90%. This method is especially useful for low-voltage, high resolution ADCs, which is a hot topic today.

Quasi-Static Energy Recovery Logic with Single Power-Clock Supply

This paper presents a new quasi-static single-phase energy recovery logic （QSSERL）, which unlike any other existing adiabatic logic family,uses a single sinusoidal supply-clock without additional timing control volta- ges. This not only ensures lower energy dissipation, but also simplifies the clock design, which would be otherwise more complicated due to the signal synchronization requirement. It is demonstrated that QSSERL circuits operate as fast as conventional two-phase energy recovery logic counterparts. Simulation with an 8bit logarithmic look- ahead adder （LLA） using static CMOS,clocked CMOS adiabatic logic （CAL,an existing typical single-phase ener- gy recovery logic）,and QSSERL,under 128 randomly generated input vectors,shows that the power consumption of the QSSERL adder is only 45% of that of the conventional static CMOS counterpart at 10MHz, and the QS- SERL adder achieves better energy efficiency than CAL when the input frequency finput is larger than 2MHz.

Modeling and Simulation of Photoelectronic Lambda Bipolar Transistor

Based on the region model of lambda bipolar transistor ( LBT), a dividing region theory model of PLBT is set up,simulated and verified. Firstly, the principal operations of different kinds of photoelectronic lambda bipolar transistor ( PLBT) are characterized by a simple circuit model. Through mathematical analysis of the equivalent circuit, the typical characteristics curve is divided into positive resistance, peak, negative resistance and cutoff regions. Secondly, by analyzing and simulating this model, the ratio of MOSFET width to channel length, threshold voltage and common emitter gain are discovered as the main structure parameters that determine the characteristic curves of PLBT. And peak region width, peak current value, negative resistance value and valley voltage value of PLBT can be changed conveniently according to the actual demands by modifying these parameters. Finally comparisons of the characteristics of the fabricated devices and the simu- lation results are made, which show that the analytical results are in agreement with the observed devices characteristics.

Path transition of the western boundary current with a gap due to mesoscale eddies: a 1.5-layer, wind-driven experiment

Using a 1.5 layer nonlinear shallow-water reduced-gravity model, we executed numerical simulations to investigate the possibility of a western boundary current (WBC) path transition due to mesoscale eddies based on the background of the Kuroshio intrusion into the South China Sea (SCS) from the Luzon Strait. Because the WBC existed different current states with respect to different wind stress control parameters, we chose three steady WBC states (loop current, eddy shedding and leaping) as the background flow field and simulated the path transition of the WBC due to mesoscale eddies. Our simulations indicated that either an anticyclonic or cyclonic eddy can lead to path transition of the WBC with different modes. The simulation results also show that the mesoscale eddies can lead to path transition of the WBC from loop and eddy shedding state to leaping state because of the hysteresis effect. The leaping state is relatively stable compared with the mesoscale eddies. Moreover, an anticyclonic eddy is more effective in producing the WBC path transition for the path transition than a cyclonic eddy. Our results may help to explain some phenomena observed regarding the path transition of the Kuroshio due to the mesoscale eddies at the Luzon Strait.

This paper will be a milestone for extended paper based on the proposed mathematical modelling and applying it to identify, classify and localize with simulation model.

Numerical analysis on thermal regime in double-loop channel inductor

In order to investigate the temperature distribution, a three-dimensional finite element model （FEM） was developed to simulate the temperature regime in the channels of double-loop inductor, and the simulated results were compared with experimental data from low load trials of a 400 kW inductor. The results of numerical simulations, such as the temperature and Joule heating rate, show reasonable correlation with experimental data. The results indicate that Joule heating rate and the temperature reach the maximum at the comers and the minimum at the centre of the cross-section area. The temperature difference between the inlet and outlet is in an inverse proportion to mass transport. Joule heating rate and the temperature are directly proportional to power frequency. It is concluded that mass transport and power frequency play a critical role in determining the temperature regime and Joule heating rate, the relative permeability of the magnetic core shows no significant influence on temperature regime and Joule heating rate, when the relative permeability varies from 5 000 to 10 000.

An Efficient Approach for the Numerical Identification of R and L Parameters of High Frequency Multi-winding Transformers

In this paper, equivalent circuits for high frequency multi-winding magnetic components are derived from finite element （FE） computations. Lumped parameter models are first presented, based on previously published work. All parameters of these circuits can be interpreted as the results of open and short-circuit tests on the transformer. Based on this consideration, numerical procedures are then proposed to derive frequency-dependent lumped parameters from FE simulations. By using an adequate formulation, parameters are directly obtained from the FE model degrees of freedom, without performing any volume integration in post-processing, which can be source of numerical errors. In this contribution, attention is paid on the modeling of magnetic coupling using inductances, and dissipative effects （winding and core losses） using resistances. The impact of conductor eddy currents on the circuit parameters is moreover studied in details. Instead of an analysis of the impact conductor eddy currents may have on the circuit parameters is moreover carried through.
