This paper is writing about developing magnet power supply. It is very important for power supply to obtain output current in high precision and high stability. As a switching noise and a power noise are the cause of disrupting the stability of output current, to remove these at the front end, low pass filter with 300Hz cutoff frequency is designed and placed. And also to minimize switching noise of the current into magnet and to stop abrupt fluctuations, output filter should be designed, when doing this, we design it by considering load has high value inductance. As power supply demands the stability of less than 5ppm, high precision 24bit(300nV/bit) analog digital converter is needed. As resolving power of 24bit(300nV/bit) analog digital converter is high, it is also very important to design the input stage of analog digital converter. To remove input noise, 4th order low pass filter is composed. Due to the limitation of clock, to minimize quantization error between 15bit DPWM and output of ADC having 24bit resolving power, ${\Sigma}-{\Delta}$ modulation is used and bit contracted DPWM is constituted. And before implementing, to maximize efficiency, simulink is used.

Oscillation-based testing of analog-to-digital converters represents a viable option for low-cost built-in self-testing in mixed-signal design. While numerous papers have addressed implementation issues, little attention has been paid to the measurement accuracy. In this letter, we highlight an inherent measurement uncertainty which has to be considered when deriving the parameters from the oscillation frequency.

In this paper, we designed 12Bit DAC(Digital to Analog Converter) that applied to multiple-valued logic system to Binary system. The proposed D/A Converter structure consists of the Binary to Quaternary Converter(BQC) and Quaternary to Analog Converter(QAC). The BQC converts the two input binary signals to the one Digit Quaternary output signal. The QAC converts the Quaternary input signal to the Analog output signal. The proposed DAC structure can implement voltage mode DAC that high resolution low power consumption with reduced chip area. And also, it has advantage of the easy expansion of resolution and fast settling time.

This study is for the contents of development to the hardware system and software driving algorithm to implement the frequency band of about 7KHz los pass digital filter which has the cut-off frequency of 392Hz by interfacing of a microprocessor with its peripheral analog-to-digital converter chip and digital-to-analog converter chip. The simplicity of digital filter design without difficulty and the implementation of programmed digital filter can be realized by providing the interfacing method to implement the law pass digital filter for the biological signals and the realization method of computer algorithm by a microprocessor.

In this study, voltammetry system for realizing high sensitivity nano-labeled sensor of detecting heavy metals was designed, and optimal system operating conditions were determined. High precision digital to analog converter (DAC) circuit was designed to control applied unit voltage at working electrode and analog to digital converter (ADC) circuit was designed to measure the current range of $0.1{\sim}1000{\mu}A$ at counter electrode. Main control unit (MCU) circuit for controlling voltammetry system with 150 MHz clock speed, main memory circuit for the mathematical operation processing of the measured current value and independent power circuit for analog/digital circuit parts to reduce various noise were designed. From result of voltammetry system operation, oxidation current peaks which are proportional to the concentrations of Zn, Cd and Pb ions were found at each oxidation potential with high precision.

A new ripple analog-to-digital converter (ADC) has been developed. It consists of two parallel ADCs and a switching network. The circuit operates on the analog input signal in two serial steps. First, a coarse conversion is made to determine the most significant bits by the first parallel ADC. The resultant bits control the switching network to connect a series resistor segment, within which the analog signal is contained, to the second parallel ADC. At second step, a fine conversion is made to determine the least significant bits by the second parallel ADC. The circuit requires 2(2\ulcorner\ulcorner1) comparators, 2(2\ulcorner\ulcorner resistors, and 2(2\ulcorner\ulcorner swithches for N-bit resolution.

The performance of a 1-bit DAC depends on that of the analog circuits. The mixed SC-CT (switched capacitor-continuous time) architecture is an effective design methodology for the analog circuits. This paper Proposes a new buffer scheme for the 1-bit digital-to-analog subconverter and a new SF-DSC(smoothing filter and differential-to-sig le converter) which performs both the smoothing filter and the differential-to-single convertor simultaneously.

This paper describes a 10-bit 10-MS/s asynchronous successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with a rail-to-rail input range. The proposed SAR ADC consists of a capacitor digital-analog converter (DAC), a SAR logic and a comparator. To reduce the frequency of an external clock, the internal clock which is asynchronously generated by the SAR logic and the comparator is used. The time-domain comparator with a offset calibration technique is used to achieve a high resolution. To reduce the power consumption and area, a split capacitor-based differential DAC is used. The designed asynchronous SAR ADC is fabricated by using a 0.18 um CMOS process, and the active area is $420{\times}140{\mu}m^2$. It consumes the power of 0.818 mW with a 1.8 V supply and the FoM is 91.8 fJ/conversion-step.

An optimized 4-stage 12-bit pipelined CMOS analog-to-digital converter (ADC) architecture is proposed to obtain high linearity and high yield. The ADC based on a multiplying digital-to-analog converter (MDAC) selectively employs a binary-weighted-capacitor (BWC) array in the front-end stage and a unit-capacitor (UC) array in the back-end stages to improve integral nonlinearity (INL) and differential nonlinearity (DNL) simultaneously whil maintaining high yield. A digital-domain nonlinear error calibration technique is applied in the first stage of the ADC to improve its accuracy to 12-bit level. The largest DNL error in the mid-point code of the ADC is reduced by avoiding a code-error symmetry observed in a conventional digitally calibrated ADC is reduced by avoiding a code-error symmetry observed in a conventional digitally calibrated ADC is simulated to prove the effectiveness of the proposed ADC architecture.

An image sensor has limited dynamic range while the human eye has logarithmic response over wide range of light intensity. Although the sensor gain can be set high to identify details in darker area on the image, this results in saturation in brighter area. The gamma correction is essential to fit the human eye response. However, the digital gamma correction degrades image quality especially for darker area on the image due to the limited ADC resolution and the dynamic range. This Paper proposes a CMOS image sensor (CIS) with a nonlinear analog-to-digital converter (AU) which performs analog gamma correction. The CIS with the proposed nonlinear analog-to-digital conversion scheme was fabricated with a $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS process. The analog gamma correction using the proposed nonlinear ADC CIS provides the 2.2dB peak-signal-to-noise-ratio(PSM) improved image qualify than conventional digital gamma correction. The PSNR of the image obtain from the digital gamma correction is 25.6dB while it is 27.8dB for analog gamma correction. The PSNR improvement over digital gamma correction is about $28.8\%$.
