This paper presents the $3^{rd}$ 4bit sigma delta modulator with the block and timing diagrams of DWA(Data Weighted Averaging) to optimize a operating time. In the modulator, the proposed DWA structure has a stable operation and timing margin so as to remove three latches and another clock. Because the modulator with proposed DWA structure improve timing margin about 23%. It can increase sampling frequency up to 244MHz. Through the MATLAB modeling, the optimized coefficients are obtained to design the modulator. The fully differential SC integrators, DAC, switch, quantizer, and DWA are designed by considering the nonideal characteristics. The designed $3^{rd}$ order 4bit modulator has a power consumption of 40mW and SNR(signal to noise ratio) of 77.2dB under 1.2V supply and 64MHz sampling frequency.

The SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) has been rapidly acknowledged as a world wide transmission standard replacing the existing PDH infrastructure. A bit stuffing is used for synchronization between a PDH signal and a SDH node, and a pointer justification is used for synchronization between one SDH node and the other SDH node. During above processes - a bit stuffing and a pointer processing -, a stuffing jitter and a pointer Jitter are produced and the generated jitter can cause transmission error. In this study, a stuffing jitter and a pointer jitter are modeled and analyzed. A Sigma-Delta modulation is described and an advanced jitter reduction technique using a Sigma-Delta modulation technique in the Synchronizer, Pointer Processor and Desynchronizer is provided.

A low power(9 mW) highly-digitized 2.4 GHz receiver for sensor network applications(IEEE 802.15.4 LR-WPAN) is realized by a $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process. We adopted a novel receiver architecture adding an intermediate frequency (IF) level detection scheme to a low-power complex fifth-order continuous-time(CT) bandpass L:tl modulator in order to digitalize the receiver. By the continuous-time bandpass architecture, the proposed $\Sigma\Delta$ modulator requires no additional anti-aliasing filter in front of the modulator. Using the IF detector, the achieved dynamic range(DR) of the over-all system is 95 dB at a sampling rate of 64 MHz. This modulator has a bandwidth of 2 MHz centered at 2 MHz. The power consumption of this receiver is 9.0 mW with a 1.8 V power supply.

The PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) control signals have a drawback in that their power spectrum tends to be concentrated around the switching frequency and the resulting harmonic spikes cause an EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) and switching losses in semiconductors, etc. The SDM (Sigma-Delta Modulation) is a type of switching modulation used to reduce these harmonic spikes, and several SDM schemes are investigated in this paper. In the DSDM (Dithered SDM), the SDSDM (Space-Dithered SDM) and TDSDM (Time-Dithered SDM), the signals are classified by the location of their random dither additions. In these schemes, the switching frequency is spread by a random dither generator placed on the input or the output parts. Experimental results are presented where the advantages of the new proposed CDSDM (Combined Dithered SDM) are confirmed by applying to a buck converter.

This paper is concerned with the asymptotic behavior of solutions of the second-order nonlinear perturbed dynamic equation $$(r(t)x^{\Delta}(t))^{\Delta}\;+\;F(t,\;x^{\sigma}))=G(t,\;x^{\sigma},\;(x^{\Delta})^{\sigma})$$ on a time scale $\mathbb{T}$. By using a new technique we establish some sufficient conditions which ensure that every solution oscillates or converges to zero. Our results improve the known oscillation results on the literature for the perturbed dynamic equations on time scales. Some examples illustrating our main results are given.

This study was carried out to evaluate the vertical stress properties in sandy soil according to changes of loading type in soil bin compacted three layers. The following conclusions and comparisons have been made based on careful analysis from theoretical and experimental methods. : When sandy soil subjected to cycle-loading, compression of foundation and diffusion of vertical stress increment(${\Delta}{\sigma}_2$) were influenced by magnitude of loading plate. When sandy soil subjected to reloading after removing of pre-loading, the distribution of ${\Delta}{\sigma}_2$ depth at one time of loading plate width was different from its distribution at more deep point cause of load hysteresis, so in case of design of structure, the effect of ${\Delta}{\sigma}_2$ as depth must be considered. The increment of vertical stress will be different as loading condition and foundation depth, the loading condition must be considered in case of structure design.

Oversampling modulators based on high-order sigma-delta modulation provide an effective means of achieving high-resolution A/D conversion in a VLSI technology. Because high-order noise shaping great]y reduces the quantization noise in the signal band. This paper introduces a third-order cascaded sigma-delta modulator that is stable for large input level. Modulator was simulated 3.3V single power supply voltage in 0.65$\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS technology. It achieves 80㏈ SNR for a 20㎑ input signal bandwidth. A lock frequency is 3㎒ that is 80 oversampling ratio.
