This paper describes the new types of ngative differential resistance (NDR) IC applications which use a monolithic quantum-effect device technology based on the RTD/HBT heterostructure design. As a digital IC, a low-power/high-speed MOBILE (MOnostable-BIstable transition Logic Element)-based D-flip flop IC operating in a non-return-to-zero (NRZ) mode is proposed and developed. The fabricated NRZ MOBILE D-flip flop shows high speed operation up to 34 Gb/s which is the highest speed to our knowledge as a MOBILE NRZ D-flip flop, implemented by the RTD/HBT technology. As an analog IC, a 14.75 GHz RTD/HBT differential-mode voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) with extremely low power consumption and good phase noise characteristics is designed and fabricated. The VCO shows the low dc power consumption of 0.62 mW and good F.O.M of -185 dBc/Hz. Moreover, a high-speed CML-type multi-functional logic, which operates different logic function such as inverter, NAND, NOR, AND and OR in a circuit, is proposed and designed. The operation of the proposed CML-type multi-functional logic gate is simulated up to 30 Gb/s. These results indicate the potential of the RTD based ICs for high speed digital/analog applications.

Development of high performance LTPS TFTs contributed to open up new SOP technology with various digital circuits integrated in display panels. This work introduces the current mode logic(CML) gate design method with which one can replace slow CMOS logic gates. The CML inverter exhibited small logic swing, fast response with high power consumption. But the power consumption became compatible with CMOS gates at higher clock speed. Due to small current values in CML, layout area is smaller than the CMOS counterpart even though CML uses larger number of devices. CML exhibited higher noise immunity thanks to its non-inverting and inverting outputs. Multi-input NAND/AND and NOR/OR gates were implemented by the same circuit architecture with different input confirugation. Same holds for MUX and XNOR/XOR CML gates. We concluded that the CML gates can be designed with few simple circuits and they can improve power consumption, chip area, and speed of operation.

This study is about spin half add operations in 𝓑₂ and 𝓑₃. The burden of technological structures has increased due to the increase in the use of today's technological applications or the processes in the digital systems used. This has increased the importance of fast transactions and storage areas. For this, less transactions, more gain and storage space are foreseen. We have handle tit (triple digit) system instead of bit (binary digit). 729 is reached in 3⁶ in 𝓑₃ while 256 is reached with 2⁸ in 𝓑₂. The volume and number of transactions are shortened in 𝓑₃. The limited storage space at the maximum level is storaged. The logic connectors and the complement of an element in 𝓑₂ and the course of the connectors and the complements of the elements in 𝓑₃ are examined. "Carry" calculations in calculating addition and "borrow" in calculating difference are given in 𝓑₃. The logic structure 𝓑₂ is seen to embedded in the logic structure 𝓑₃. This situation enriches the logic structure. Some theorems and lemmas and properties in logic structure 𝓑₂ are extended to logic structure 𝓑₃.

ICs(Integrated circuits) for nuclear power plant exposed to radiation environment occur malfunctions and data errors by the TID(Total ionizing dose) effects among radiation-damage phenomenons. In order to protect ICs from the TID effects, this paper proposes a radiation-hardening of the logic circuit(D-latch) which used for the data synchronization and the clock division in the ICs design. The radiation-hardening technology in the logic device(NAND) that constitutes the proposed RH(Radiation-hardened) D-latch is structurally more advantageous than the conventional technologies in that it keeps the device characteristics of the commercial process. Because of this, the unit cell based design of the RH logic device is possible, which makes it easier to design RH ICs, including digital logic circuits, and reduce the time and cost required in RH circuit design. In this paper, we design and modeling the structure of RH D-latch based on commercial $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS process using Silvaco's TCAD 3D tool. As a result of verifying the radiation characteristics by applying the radiation-damage M&S (Modeling&Simulation) technique, we have confirmed the radiation-damage of the standard D-latch and the RH performance of the proposed D-latch by the TID effects.

In this paper, the self-organizing fuzzy logic controller is developed for water level control of steam generator. In comparison with conventional fuzzy logic controllers, this controller performs control task with no control rules at initial and creates control rules as control behavior goes on, and also modifies its control structure when uncertain disturbance is suspected. Selected parameters in the fuzzy logic controller are updated on-line by the gradient descent loaming algorithm based on the performance cost function. This control algorithm is applied to water level control of steam generator model developed by Lee, et al. The computer simulation results confirm good performance of this control algorithm in all power ranges. This control algorithm can be expected to be used for automatic control of feedwater control system in the nuclear power plant with digital instrumentation and control systems.

In this paper, a new asymmetric public key cryptography based on the modified RSA algorithm is proposed by using logic-based optical processing. The proposed asymmetric public key algorithm is realized into an optical schematic, where AND, OR and XOR logic operations are implemented by using free space digital optics architecture. Schematically, the proposed optical configuration has an advantage of generating the public keys simultaneously. Another advantage is that the suggested optical setup can also be used for message encryption and decryption by simply replacing data inputs of SLMs in the optical configuration. The last merit is that the optical configuration has a 2-D array data format which can increase the key length easily. This can provide longer 2-D key length resulting in a higher security cryptosystem than the conventional 1-D key length cryptosystem. Results of numerical simulation and differential cryptanalysis are presented to verify that the proposed method shows the effectiveness in the optical asymmetric cryptographic system.

In this paper, a boiler control system for thermal power plant is configured. The boiler control system for thermal power plant is largely composed of an ABC(Automatic Boiler Control) system and a MBC(Mill Burner Control) system. ABC system controls analog process values, so almost all analog control logic is dealt with in ABC system. On the other hand, MBC system relates to sequence control logic such as MFT logic, Furnace Purge, Safety related logic. Advanced control systems made from advanced countries deal with an ABC system and MBC system in a distributed control system. In this paper, we adopt a DCS as an ABC system and adopt a PLC system as a MBC system to configure a boiler control system for thermal power plant using domestic control system. Finally the validity of the configured boiler control system is shown via simulation using digital simulator for boiler system in thermal power plant.

Reconfigurable computing is a new computing paradigm which has more potential in terms of performance and flexibility. Reconfigurable computing systems are opening a new era in digital signal processing such as multimedia, communication and consumer electronics because they can filter data rapidly and excel at pattern recognition, image process- ing and encryption. Although many reconfigurable computing systems use a conventional programmable device, they carry several serious problems to be solved. This paper proposes a logic block architecture of programmable device suit-able for the reconfigurable computing. Compared to conventional logic blocks, our logic block can improve implementation density, efficiency and speed.

A new method of digital image analysis technique for medical images of cancer cell is presented. This paper deals with the cancer cell discrimination. The object images were the Thyroid Gland cell images that were diagnosed as normal and abnormal. This paper proposes a new discrimination method based on fuzzy logic algorithm. The focus of this paper is an automatic discrimination of cells into normal and abnormal of medical images by dominant feature parameters method with fuzzy algorithm. As a consequence of using fuzzy logic algorithm, the nucleus were successfully diagnosed as normal and abnormal. As for the experimental result, average recognition rate of 64.66% was obtained by applying single parameter of 16 feature parameters at a time. The discrimination rate of 93.08% was obtained by proposed method.
