In this paper, we discuss a symbol clock extraction scheme based on maximizing the band-edge component of the transmitted signal frequency spectrum for applications to 51.84Mbps VDSL system which uses a 16-QAM. The major characteristics of the digital PLL are examined. In addition, we suggest an efficient design method of a sinusoidal look-up table which is used for NCO.

In this paper, SI(Signal Integrity) characteristic of the 4-layer PCB(Printed Circuit Boards) with a through-hole via was analyzed by impedance mismatching between the through-hole via and the transmission line, and deterioration of clock pulse response characteristic due to the P/G plane resonances which are generated between the power and the ground plane. The minimized impedance mismatching between the through-hole via and the transmission line for the improving of SI characteristic is confirmed by the TDR(Time Domain Reflector) simulation and lumped element modeling of the through-hole via. And the cancellation method of P/G plane resonances for improvement of the SI characteristic is represented by simulation result.

This paper describes a design methodology for the CMOS current source which can be implemented in standard memory process. The proposed techniques provide a good characteristic against the power-supply variation by utilizing a self-bias circuit and the reduction of the first-order component of the temperature variation through the new temperature compensation technique and include a new current-sensing start-up circuit enabling a robust operation against the voltage noise generated during the operation of the chip. In addition to the circuit-design technology, techniques where the proposed CMOS current-reference circuit can be applied to the clocking circuits of a very high-speed DRAM are presented. The feasibility of the suggested design methodology for the CMOS current reference is demonstrated by both the analytical method and the circuit simulation.

A speech recognition chip that can recognize a small vocabulary as a word-level has been designed. It is composed of EPD(Start and End-point detection) block, LPC block, DTW block and external memory interface block. It is made of 126,938 gates on 4x4mm2 area with a CMOS 0.35um TLM process. The speed of the chip varies from 5MHz to 60MHz because of its specific hardware designed for the purpose. It can compare 100,000 voices as a small vocabulary which has approximately 50∼60 frames at the clock of 5MHz and also up to 1,200,000 voices at the clock of 60MHz.

This paper proposed a low EMI spread spectrum clock generator (SSCG) using discontinuous frequency modulation technique. The proposed SSCG is designed for triangular frequency modulation with high modulation depth. When the maximum time interval error (MTIE) of the SSCG is higher than given limit, the output frequency of SSCG is divided by two and used for reducing the time interval error (TIE). This discontinuous frequency modulation technique can effectively reduce the EMI within given limit. The simulated EMI of proposed SSCG was reduced by 18.5dB than that of conventional methods.

In this paper, tunable 4th order SC(switched capacitor) bandpass ${\sigma}-{\Delta}$(Sigma-Delta) modulator with advanced architecture that can adjust the IF by two coefficient values is proposed for data conversion in the wireless communication. Its architecture can optionally adjust all the 4th order noise transfer function in comparison with the conventional architecture. In order to adjust the IF, the conventional architecture needs the four variable coefficients values, basic clocks and eight clocks. On the other hand, the proposed architecture can adjust the IF by two variable coefficient values and basic clocks only.

Recently, the development of passive optical networks (PON) for FTTH (Fiber-To-The-Home) have been actively conducted. In PON, a burst-mode transceiver is one of key modules. In this paper, we have made the protype module of a 155.52 Mpbs optical burst-mode transceiver with commercially available chips and then have measured the performance. Also, a new method of burst-mode clock recovery have been proposed. The burst-mode clock recovery implemented by using CPLD(Complex Programmable Logic Device) has coupled with the above burst-mode transceiver and has been tasted.

We proposed and implemented new DDC system which overcomes the difficulties including lack of flexibility of modifications of frequency which is the problem of previous frequence oscillator and synchronization. New DDC system can create frequence in two decimal points. Moreover, due to its usage in adjusting to frequence clock which is required by many consumers, laser distance instrument can reduce its error; thus, implementation of system is capable of high precision distance measurement can be performed.

In the distance measurement system the time-to-digital conversion circuit used measures the distance using the time interval between the start signal and the stop signal. The time interval is generally converted to digital information using a counter circuit considering the response speed. Therefore, a clock signal with a high frequency is required to improve precision, and a clock signal with a high frequency is also required to measure fine distances. In this paper, a counter circuit was designed to increase the accuracy of distance measurement while using the same frequency. The circuit design was performed using a 0.18㎛ CMOS process technology, and the operation of the designed circuit was confirmed through HSPICE simulation. As a result of the simulation, it is possible to obtain an improvement of four times the precision compared to the case of using a general counter circuit.

Modular multiplication is a key operation for point scalar multiplication of ECC, and is the most important factor affecting the performance of ECC processor. This paper describes a design of a 256-bit modular multiplier that adopts 3-way Toom-Cook multiplication algorithm and modified fast reduction algorithm. One 90-bit multiplier and three 264-bit adders were used to optimize the hardware size and the number of clock cycles required. The modular multiplier was verified by implementing it using Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC device and the modular multiplication operation takes 15 clock cycles.
