In this paper, the transceiver for RFID reader using 13.56MHz as a carrier frequency and meeting International Standard ISO 14443 type A, 14443 type B and 15693 is presented. The receiver is composed of envelope detector, VGA(Variable Gain Amplifier), filter, comparator to recovery the received signal. The proposed automatic reference voltage generator, positive peak detector, negative peak detector, and data slicer circuit can adjust the decision level of reference voltage over the received signal amplitudes. The transmitter is designed to drive high voltage and current to meet the 15693 specification. By using inductor loading circuit which can swing more than power supply and drive large current even under low impedance condition, it can control modulation rate from 30 percent to 5 percent, 100 perccnt and drive the output currents from 5 mA to 240 mA depending on standards. The 13.56 MHZ RFID reader is implemented in $0.18\;{\mu}m$ CM08 technology at 3.3V single supply. The chip area excluding pads is $1.5mm\;{\times}\;1.5mm$.

In this paper a $6^{th}$ 1MHz~30MHz bandpass filter for Power line communication(PLC) modem receiver is designed using current mode synthesis method which is good to design the low-voltage and low-power filter. The designed bandpass filter is composed of cascade connecting between $3^{rd}$ Butterworth highpass filter and $3^{rd}$ Chebychev lowpass filter. As a core circuit in the current-mode filter, a current-mode integrator is designed with new architecture which can improve gain and unity gain frequency of the integrator. The gain and the unity gain frequency of the designed integrator is each 32.2dB and 247MHz. And the cutoff frequency of the designed $6^{th}$ bandpass filter can be controlled to 50MHz from 200KHz according to controlling voltage and the power consumption is 2.85mW with supply voltage, 1.8V. The designed bandpass filter was verified using a $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS parameter.

In this paper, an improved Norton amplifier is proposed and the problems caused by the current input in the Norton amplifier, which has advantages in current transmission, are analyzed. The output of the voltage follower consisting of an operational-amplifier with constant output voltage characteristics is used as an input terminal of the proposed circuit. It is configured to detect the power supply current passing through the voltage follower and extract the current from the input terminal. The performance of the improved Norton amplifier is verified at experiment according to the input current. The results are compared with conventional Norton amplifier. Consequently, the input offset voltage, which is a problem in the conventional Norton amplifier, was removed in the proposed circuit. In addition, the average error of the output voltage with respect to the input current was reduced to 4.755%. It is verified that the characteristics of the proposed circuit are improved.

This paper presents 6bit 250MS/s flash A/D converter which can be applied to wireless communication system. To solve the problem of large power consumption in flash A/D converter, control algorithm by input signal level is used in comparator stage. Also, input voltage range detector circuit is used in reference resistor array to minimize the dynamic power consumption in the comparator. Compared with the conventional A/D converter, the proposed A/D converter shows 4.3% increase of power consumption in analog and a seventh power consumption in digital, which leads to a half of power consumption in total. The A/D converter is implemented in a $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS 1-poly 6-metal technology. The measured results show 106mW power dissipation with 1.8V supply voltage. It shows 4.1bit ENOB at sampling frequency 250MHz and 30.27MHz input frequency.

We propose a low-power and high-speed client receiver for a mobile display digital interface (MDDI) newly in this paper. The low-power receiver is designed such that bias currents, sink and source currents, are insensitive to variations of power supply, process, temperature, and common-mode input voltage (VCM) and is able to operate at a rate of 450Mbps or above under the conditions of a power supply range of 3.0 to 3.6Vand a temperature range of -40 to 85$^{\circ}$C. And it is confirmed by a simulation result that the current dissipation is less than 500${\mu}$A. A test chip is manufactured with the Magna chip 0.35${\mu}$m CMOS process. When a test was done, the data receiver and data recovery circuits are functioning normally.

In this paper, a LNA(Low Noise Amplifier) has been developed, which is operating at L-band i.e., 1452∼1492 MHz for satellite DAB(Digital Audio Brcadcasting) receiver. The LNA is designed to improve input and output reflection coefficient and VSWR(Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) by balanced amplifier. The LNA consists of low noise amplification stage and gain amplification stage, which make a using of GaAs FET ATF-10136 and VNA-25 respectively, and is fabricated by hybrid method. To supply most suitable voltage and current, active bias circuit is designed Active biasing offers the advantage that variations in $V_P$ and $I_{DSS}$ will not necessitate a change in either the source or drain resistor value for a given bias condition. The active bias network automatically sets $V_{gs}$ for the desired drain voltage and drain current. The LNA is fabricated on FR-4 substrate with RF circuit and bias circuit, and integrated in aluminum housing. As a reults, the characteristics of the LNA implemented more than 32 dB in gain. 0.2 dB in gain flatness. lower than 0.95 dB in noise figure, 1.28 and 1.43 each input and output VSWR, and -13 dBm in $P_{1dB}$.

수중에서는 대기와는 달리 매질의 차이로 인하여 통신의 제약이 따르므로 초음파를 이용하여 정보를 송 수신한다. 수중통신을 하기 위해서는 초음파를 발생시키는 트랜스듀서와 신호를 증폭시키는 전력증폭기가 필요하다. 전력증폭기는 선형적인 출력이 보장되어야 하며, 수중에서의 연료문제로 인하여 높은 효율로 동작하여야한다. 하지만 출력의 선형성과 시스템의 효율은 Trade off의 관계이기 때문에 두 가지 모두를 만족시키는 연구가 요구된다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 Class B push-pull 증폭기를 사용하여 선형 출력 특성을 보장하며, 신호의 크기에 따라 증폭기의 인가전압을 가변하는 ET(Envelope Tracking) 기술을 적용하여 향상된 효율 특성을 갖는 넓은 대역폭의 전력증폭기를 설계하고 실험을 통해 특성을 확인하였다.

현재 가스절연개폐장치 예방진단에 가장 광범위하게 적용되는 것이 UHF 부분방전 진단법이다. 부분방전시 방사되는 전자파 에너지를 Sensor가 수신하여 전압위상도에 신호강도를 표시하고 전자파 도달시간을 이용하여 결함위치를 쉽게 파악할 수 있는 장점이 있는 반면 Noise 간섭에 취약하여 부분방전 진단결과의 신뢰성이 확보되지 못하는 문제점이 있어 본 연구에서는 가스절연개폐장치의 부분방전 진단시 Noise의 영향과 차폐개선을 통한 부분방전 측정의 새로운 해법을 제시하고자 한다.

본 논문에서는 $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS 공정을 이용하여 2.5 Gbps로 동작하는 광 송수신기를 설계하였다. 광 송수신기의 구성을 보자면, 전기 신호를 빛 신호로 전환하여 주는 레이저 다이오드(LD) 구동부와 레이저 다이오드에서 나오는 빛 신호를 수신하여 이를 다시 전기 신호로 바꿔주는 포토 다이오드(PD) 구동 부분으로 구성된다. LD 구동부는 LD의 문턱전류 이상을 공급하는 바이어스 부분과 신호레벨의 모듈레이션 전류를 공급하는 부분으로 구성된다. 디자인된 송신기는 바이어스 전류를 10 mA 정도 공급하여주며, 모듈레이션 전류를 15 mA 정도 공급한다. 수신기는 current decision 부분과 output buffer 부분으로 구성되어 PD로부터 나오는 전류를 다시 디지털 레벨의 전압신호로 바꾸어 주며 디자인된 수신기는 넓은 동작 영역을 가진다.
