In this paper, a lumped time-delay compensation scheme with 2-bit quantization resolution is proposed. A strip silicon waveguide is designed and used to compensate for the entire time-delays of the optical pulses after a soliton self-frequency shift (SSFS) module within a wavelength range of 1550 nm-1580 nm. A dispersion coefficient as high as -19800 ps/(km.nm) with +0.5 ps/(km.nm) variation is predicted for the strip waveguide. The simulation results show that the maximum supportable sampling rate (MSSR) is 50.45 GSa/s with full width at half maximum (FWHM) variation less than 2.52 ps, along with the 2-bit effective- number-of-bit and Gray code output.展开更多

Some works give the influence of the electric field on the junction capacitance. However, these works do not relate the quality of the p-n junction under the electic field. The present manuscript is about a theoretical modelling of the p-n junction capacitance behavior of the polycrystalline silicon solar cell under an integration of the external electrical field source. An external electrical source is integrated in a solar cell system. The electronic carriers charge generated in the solar cell crossed mainly the junction with the great strength external electrical field. In open circuit, this crossing of the electronic charge carriers causes the thermal heating of the p-n junction by Joule effect. The p-n junction capacitance plotted versus the junction dynamic velocity and the photo-voltage for different external electrical fields. The electric field causes the decrease of the photo-voltage mainly the open-circuit photo-voltage. The decrease of the photo-voltage translates the narrowing of the Space Charge Region (SCR). The average value of the external electric field used in this study is not sufficient to cause the breakdown of the p-n junction of the solar cell system under integration of the external electrical field production source. The increase of the electrical field causes rather the narrowing of the SCR. That can provide an improvement of the solar cell’s electrical outputs.展开更多
为了实现较高的电容检测范围,传统的采用SAR ADC的开关电容(Switched capacitor,SC)的电容数字转换器(Capacitance to digital converter,CDC)使用高压供电提高输出摆幅,而其为了保证噪声性能又采用大电流驱动,所以显著增加了系统功耗...为了实现较高的电容检测范围,传统的采用SAR ADC的开关电容(Switched capacitor,SC)的电容数字转换器(Capacitance to digital converter,CDC)使用高压供电提高输出摆幅,而其为了保证噪声性能又采用大电流驱动,所以显著增加了系统功耗。为了解决以上问题,提出了一种基于数字放大器的电容数字转换器,将CDAC阵列作为模拟输出承担高压。仅对CDAC阵列与传感电容采用高压(5 V)驱动,而其余部分仍采用低压(1 V)供电,使得CDC在达到高动态范围与高灵敏度的同时保持低功耗、低噪声。此外,针对噪声的优化,本文一方面通过在数字放大器内加入积分环路实现SAR ADC的一阶噪声整形,降低了系统的量化噪声,提高了CDC的有效位数;另一方面通过引入有源噪声抵消(Active noise cancellation technology,ANC)技术,降低了系统的混叠噪声,提高了系统的信噪比。展开更多
