A design study of phase detectors for the 2.5 Gb/s CDR circuit using a standard 0.18-${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS process has been performed. The targeted CDR is based on the phase-locked loop and thus it consists of a phase detector, a charge pump, a LPF, and a VCO. For high frequency operation of 2.5 Gb/s, phase detector and charge pump, which accurately compare phase errors to reduce clock jitter, are critical for designing a reliable CDR circuit. As a phase detector, the Hogge phase detector is selected but two transistors are added to improve the performance of the D-F/F. The charge pump was also designed to be placed indirectly input and output.

Bottom gate and top gate field-effect transistor based carbon nanotube(CNT) were fabricated by CMOS process. Carbon nanotube directly grown by thermal chemical vapor deposition(CVD) using Ethylene ($C_2H_4$) gas at $700^{\circ}C$. The growth properties of CNTs on the device were analyzed by SEM and AFM. The electrical transport characteristics of CNT FET were investigated by I-V measurement. Transport through the nanotubes is dominated by holes at room temperature. By varying the gate voltage, bottom gate and top gate field-effect transistor successfully modulated the conductance of FET device.

The design and analysis of analog circuit application on CMOS technology are a challenge in deep sub-micrometer process. This paper is a study on the performance value of Double Gate (DG) Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) with Gate Stack and the channel engineering Single Halo (SH), Double Halo (DH). Four different structures have been analysed keeping channel length constant. The short channel parameters and different sub-threshold analog figures of merit (FOMs) are analysed. This work extensively provides the device structures which may be applicable for high speed switching and low power consumption application.

In this paper V-I(Voltage to Current) converter using the series composite transistor is presented. Due to the series composite transistor employs operating in the saturation region and triode region, the proposed circuit has wide input range at low voltage. The designed V-I converter has simulated by HSPICE using 0.6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ n-well CMOS process with a $\pm$2.5V supply voltage. Simulation results show that the THD can be 0.81% at 4 $V_{p-p}$ differential input voltage when frequency of input signal is 10MHz.z.

We designed a phase locked loop (PLL), which is applicable to microprocessor clock generation application. The designed PLL has a new simple phase frequency detector (PFD) which eliminate dead-zone and has a good high frequency characteristic. The lock-in range of the designed PLL is 50 MHz ~ 150 MHz at 3.3v power supply voltage. The design is carried out using a 0.6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ triple metal CMOS process. The area of the layout is 0.35mm by 0.42mm with 359 transistors.

In this paper, we propose a wide range PLL(Phase Locked Loop) for 64X CD-ROMs & l0X DVD-ROMs. The frequency locking range of the Proposed PLL is 75MHz~370MHz. To reduce jitters caused by large VCO gain and supply voltage noise, a new V-I converter and a differential delay cell are used in 3-stage ring VCO, respectively. The new V-I converter has a 0.6V ~ 2.5V wide input range. In addition, we propose a new charge pump which has perfect current matching characteristics for the sourcing/sinking current. This new charge pump improves the locking time and the locking range of the PLL. This Chip is implemented in 0.25${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS process. It consumes 55㎽ in worst case with a single 2.5V power supply.

In this paper, a novel 108-bit conditional sum adder(CSA) with Energy Economized Pass-transistor Logic(EEPL) is proposed. A new architecture is adopted, in order to obtain a high speed operation, which is composed of seven modularized 16-bit CMS's and two separated carry generation block. Further a design technique based on EEPL is proposed to reduce the power consumption. With 0.65${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ single poly, triple metal, 3.3V CMOS process, its operating speed is about 4.95㎱ and the power consumption is reduced in comparison with that of the conventional adder.

This paper presents an 125MHz, 128-phase phase-locked loop using interpolation technique for digital timing recovery. To reduce the power consumption and chip area, phase interpolation was performed over only selected windows, instead of overall period. Four clocks were used for phase interpolation to avoid the output jitter increase due to the interpolation clock (clock used for phase interpolation) switching. Also, the output clock was fed back to finite-state machine (FSM) where the multiplexer selection signals are generated to eliminate the possible output glitches. The PLL implemented in a $0.25\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS process and dissipates 80mW at 2.5V supply and occupies $0.84\textrm{mm}^2.

Today, the obstacle detection system has massive size and restrictive detection range. To solve these problems, this paper proposes the capacitance variation detector using the variated capacitance value as a result of the obstacle approaching. If obstacle approaches, the capacitance value of capacitance sensor is increased and the operating frequency of oscillator is decreased. Then this changed frequency appears to the output of the mixer that operate down conversion. The capacitance variation detector is produced by Hynix$0.35{\mu}$ CMOS process. In experiment result, the frequency of final output is 6.81 MHz at no obstacle and 31.45 MHz at approaching obstacle. In conclusion, proposed capacitance variation detector has small size, low power consumption and easiness to set up anywhere. So it is expected to substitute the obstacle detector.

This paper presents a vision based autonomous inspection system for welding quality control of a RV sinking seat. In order to overcome the precision error that arises from a visible inspection by an operator in the manufacturing process of a RV sinking seat, the machine vision based welding quality control system is proposed. It consists of the CMOS camera and the NI vision system. The geometry of the welding bead, which is the welding quality criteria, is measured by using the captured image with a median filter applied on it. The image processing software for the system was developed using the NI LabVIEW software. The proposed welding quality inspection system for RV sinking seat was verified using experimentation.
