The conventional way to implement a bidirectional converter with boost/buck has been to use two general purpose PWM ICs with a single supply voltage. In this case, when one direction mode is in operation, the other is disabled and the output of the error amplifier of the disabled IC may be saturated to a maximum value or zero. Therefore, during mode transition, a circuit which can disable the switching operation for a certain time interval is required making it impossible to get a seamless transition. In this paper, the limitations of the conventional 42V/14V bi-directional DC/DC converter implemented with general current mode PWM ICs with a single supply voltage are reviewed and a new current mode PWM controller circuit with a dual voltage system is proposed. The validity of the proposed circuit is investigated through simulation. and experiments.

DC/DC스위칭 전력 컨버터는 임의의 직류전원을 부하가 요구하는 형태의 직류전원으로 변환시킨다. DC/DC 컨버터는 PWM-IC를 이용하여 주기적으로 입력측에서 출력측으로 전달되는 에너지를 제어하는 기능을 수행하는데, PWM-IC(펄스폭 변조-집적회로), MOSFET(산화물-반도체 전계 효과 트랜지스터), 인덕터, 콘덴서, 저항 등으로 구성되어 있다. 방사선의 영향으로 DC/DC 컨버터의 PWM-IC 를 구성하는 비교기(comparator)와 연산증폭기(OP-Amp.) 등 전자소자의 열화 효과(radiation effects)가 발생되는데, PWM-IC 동작에서 SPICE 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통해 펄스의 상실, 펄스폭의 변화, 그리고 출력파형의 변화를 연구하는데 있다.

This paper proposes a new automatic compensation network (ACN) for a system-on-chip (SoC) transceiver. We built a 5 GHz low noise amplifier (LNA) with an on-chip ACN using 0.18 ${\mu}m$ SiGe technology. This network is extremely useful for today's radio frequency (RF) integrated circuit devices in a complete RF transceiver environment. The network comprises an RF design-for-testability (DFT) circuit, capacitor mirror banks, and a digital signal processor. The RF DFT circuit consists of a test amplifier and RF peak detectors. The RF DFT circuit helps the network to provide DC output voltages, which makes the compensation network automatic. The proposed technique utilizes output DC voltage measurements and these measured values are translated into the LNA specifications such as input impedance, gain, and noise figure using the developed mathematical equations. The ACN automatically adjusts the performance of the 5 GHz LNA with the processor in the SoC transceiver when the LNA goes out of the normal range of operation. The ACN compensates abnormal operation due to unusual thermal variation or unusual process variation. The ACN is simple, inexpensive and suitable for a complete RF transceiver environment.

In this paper, the linearization technique for CMOS low-noise amplifier (LNA) using the derivative superposition method through the multiple gated transistors configuration is presented. LNA based on 0.13um RF CMOS process has been implemented with a modified cascode configuration using multiple gated common source transistors to fulfill a high linearity. Compared with a conventional cascode type LNA, the third order input intercept point (IIP3) per DC power consumption (IIP3/DC) is improved by 3.85 dB. The LNA achieved 2.5-dBm IIP3 with 13.4-dB gain, 3.6 dB NF at 2.4 GHz consuming 8.56 mA from a 1.5-V supply.

Map building is the most important thing for the mobile robots navigation. It requires specific vision system such as CCD camera, range finding system, and many other things. Laser range finder has highly collimated beams can be obtained easily, thus achieving lateral resolution. Laser Diode is used for a continuous laser source. The Automatic Current Control Circuit and the Bias-T is used for mix AC signal with DC bias. This signal is used for driving Laser Diode. The main idea of the calculating distance is detecting phase shift between reference signal and detected signal by photo detector. For the signal processing, the Lock-in amplifier system is addressed in this paper. We used a diffused reflected beam to detect phase shift in this system. But this beam is minuteness signal so it can be easily buried in nose. Lock-in amplifier is used to measure the amplitude and phase of signals which are buried in noise.

The electronystagmography(ENG) means to measure and record CRP(Corneal-Retinal Potential) whenever the eyeball is moved by using a skin electrode stuck to the hi-temporal and the difference of CRP. Both the horizontal and vertical movement are known according to the position of the stuck skin electrode. In this paper, the variable time-constances to record the eyeball signal of the conventional EOG(Electro-Oculograph) Amplifier is chosen. The shorter the time-constance is, the worse the distortion of a signal is. But the unbalanced impedance of the electrode stuck on the hi-temporal is reduced. Also, the longer the time-constance is, the less the distortion of it signal is. But it is sensitive to the change of base line according to the unbalanced impedance. In order to solve these problems, an DC-Amplifier, the distortion of the eyeball signal is globally used. By solving unbalanced impedance problem of EOG amplifier, the distortion ratio of EOG amplifier is improved.
