In this study, we propose a CMOS power amplifier (PA) using a bypass technique to enhance the efficiency in the low-power region. For the bypass structure, the common-gate (CG) transistor of the cascode structure of the driver stage is divided in two parallel branches. One of the CG transistors is designed to drive the power stage for high-power mode. The other CG transistor is designed to bypass the power stage for low-power mode. Owing to a turning-off of the power stage, the power consumption is decreased in low-power mode. The measured maximum output power is 20.35 dBm with a power added efficiency of 12.10%. At a measured output power of 11.52 dBm, the PAE is improved from 1.90% to 7.00% by bypassing the power stage. Based on the measurement results, we verified the functionality of the proposed bypass structure.

The thermal characteristics of a laser diode TO package has been analyzed using a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tool, and the thermal bypass structure was optimized. Comparison of device temperature and the estimated thermal resistance of the resultant structure showed that the bypass structure relieved the thermal bottleneck, and improved the thermal characteristics quite efficiently.

Infrared signal and exhaust gas temperature distribution with bypass ratio were measured using a micro turbojet engine. Micro turbojet engine was modified to simulate the turbofan engine behaviour. Core flow was simulated using the jet flow of the micro turbojet engine, and high-pressure air was supplied to its external duct to simulate bypass flow. The effects of bypass ratios (0.5, 1.0, and 1.4) were examined. The experimental results indicate that the infrared signal decreases as the bypass ratio increases. And also gas temperature decreases with bypass ratios. Additionally, Schlieren visualization of the exhaust gas plume was conducted. From the exhaust gas temperature distribution and Schlieren images, the structure of jet plume with various bypass ratios was understood.

Operating characteristics of a loop heat pipe (LHP) having a bypass line was investigated experimentally. The LHP had a sintered metal wick as a capillary structure and methanol as a working fluid. The sintered metal wick was made of stainless steel of which the average pore size was 5 ${\mu}m$and porosity of 47%. A bypass line of a small diameter was attached between the vapor escape passage and the liquid reservoir. The dimension of the flat evaporator was $50(L){\times}40(W){\times}30(H)$ mm and that of the condenser was $50(L){\times}40(W){\times}11(H)$ mm. Wall and pipe material of the LHP was stainless steel and heating area was 35(W) mm${\times}$35(L) mm. The inner diameters of vapor and liquid transport lines were 4.0 mm and 2.0 mm, and the lengths of the two lines were both 0.5 m. The LHP was tested for three different tilt angles of horizontal, favorite tilt, and adverse tilt. The thermal load range was up to 290 W at the condenser above evaporation position. Furthermore, the effect of a bypass line on the start-up transient as well as steady-state operation was presented and discussed.

This paper describes the design of asynchronous adders based on carry selection and carry bypass techniques. The designs are faster than existing asynchronous adders which are based on ripple carry technique. It is caused by reducing the carry transfer time by using carry selection and carry bypass techniques. Also, the design uses tree structure to reduce the completion sensing time. The proposed adders are designed with CMOS domino logic and experimented with HSPICE simulator. Experimental results show that the proposed adders can be faster about 50% in average cases than previous ripple carry adders.

With the increasing use of high-power laser diode bars (LDBs) and stacked LDBs, the issue of thermal control has become critical, as temperature is related to device efficiency and lifetime, as well as to beam quality. To improve the thermal resistance of an LDB set, we propose and analyze a bypass heat sink with a top canopy structure for an LDB set, instead of adopting a thick submount. The thermal bypassing in the top-canopy structure is efficient, as it avoids the cross-sectional thermal saturation that may exist in a thick submount. The efficient thickness range of the submount in a typical LDB set is guided by the thermal resistance as a function of thickness, and the simulated bypassing efficiency of a canopy is higher than a simple analytical prediction, especially for thinner canopies.

In accordance with the trend for high-speed multi-axes, and the increasing technical sophistication of machine tools, thermal deformation has become an important factor in the accuracy of machine tools. It was analyzed that thermal deformation error accounts for about 70% of all errors made with machine tools. For precise temperature control, both cooling and heating should be implemented. A hot gas bypass type cooling cycle method has a simplified structure and temperature control accuracy to with in ${\pm}0.1^{\circ}C$. In this study, the performances of oil cooler system, including temperature controllability according to hot gas floe and preset temperature sustainability according to temperature load, were tested. It is expected that this study will contribute to the development and performances of oil cooler system, which could minimize thermal errors and improve the quality of precision machine tools.

Until recently. the study about bypass diode has been limited to theoretical study. but, in this paper, We study on the relationship between structure of PV module and Bypassing point by simulation software(Pspice). We expected the design on the PV module has an effect on bypassing point. So, we designated the two kind of experiment with PV modules. One of the experiment is on the relationship between the number of rows and Bypassing point on the PV modules, the other experiment is on the relationship between the number of groups(two columns) on the PV modules.(around 50Wp, 100Wp, 150Wp, 200WP) As the result, the more increase the number of rows, bypassing point is faster. And the more increase the number of groups in more than 3 groups, bypassing point is faster more than case of increasing the rows.

A highly efficient multi-mode balanced power amplifier(PA) structure is proposed for W-CDMA handset applications. The proposed PA has 2-stage amplifier configuration and the stage-bypass and load impedance switching techniques were applied to enhance power efficiency at medium power level as well as low output power level. Using the two techniques, four highly efficient power modes were realized. To demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed structure, a GaAs HBT balanced PA module was designed, fabricated, and measured.
