Accurate equivalent circuit modeling using multi-circuit optimization has been perfomred for detemining small-signal model of AlGaAs/GaAs HBTs. Three equivalent circuits for a cutoff biasing and two active biasing at different curretns are optimized simultaneously to fit gheir S parameters under the physics-based constrain that current-dependent elements for one of active circuits are connected to those for another circit multiplied by the ratio of two currents. The cutoff mode circuit and the physical constrain give the advantage of extracting physically acceptable parameters, because the number of unknown variables. After this optimization, three ses of optimized model S-parameters agree well with their measured S-parameters from 0.045 GHz to 26.5GHz.

A vibration-based energy harvester and its equivalent circuit models have been reported. Most models predict voltage signals at harmonic excitation. However, vibrations in a natural environment are unpredictable in frequency and amplitude. In this paper, we propose a realistic equivalent circuit model of a frequency-up-converting impact-based piezoelectric energy harvester. It can describe the behavior of the harvester in a real environment where the frequency and the amplitude of the excitation vary arbitrarily. The simulation results of the model were compared with experimental data and showed good agreement. The proposed model can predict both the impact response and long term response in a non-harmonic excitation. The model is also very useful to analyze the performance of energy conversion circuitry with the harvester.

이 논문에서는 실리콘 기판 등가 회로 모델과 새로운 모델 파라미터 추출 방법을 보인다. 등가 회로 모델을 해석함으로써 회로 블록 사이의 기판 커플링 특성을 고찰하고, 커플링의 크기를 회로 동작 주파수와 특성 주파수(시스템의 폴과 제로 주파수)를 사용하여 분석함으로써 기판 커플링의 물리적 특성을 정량적으로 해석하였다. 제안된 등가회로 모델과 모델 파라미터 추출 방법의 정확성과 타당성을 실험적으로 검증하기 위하여 표준 CMOS 공정을 사용하여 다양한 거리와 기판 저항, 그리고 가드링 구조를 갖는 테스트 패턴을 설계, 제작하고 100 MHz-20 GHz 주파수 영역에서 측정하였다. 그리고 실리콘 기판 등가 회로 모델 을 사용하여 HSPICE를 사용하여 시뮬레이션하고 그 결과를 측정 결과와 비교함으로써 제안된 회로 모델과 파라미터 추출 방법의 정확성을 보였다. 따라서 등가 회로 모델과 파라미터 추출 방법은 정확한 혼성 신호 회로 디자인과 효과적인 시스템의 성능 검증에 유용하게 사용될 수 있다.

This paper implements a model of a double excited three-degree-of-freedom motor (3-DOF) coupled with a PI current controller for position control. The rotational trends of the rotor according to the applied steps are identified using a motion equation. The simulation model is a complete electrical and mechanical model of a 3-DOF motor, which mainly consists of mechanical torque equations, a nonlinear equivalent magnetic circuit, and a PI current controller. This machine is tested using the manufactured control board using the same conditions as in the simulation, where the experimental results also verify the accuracy of the simulation results.

We have suggested an equivalent circuit model for switching performance of bipolar spin transistor composed of a nonmagnetic metal film (N) sandwiched between two ferromagnetic metal films (F1 and F2). The 'ON' or 'OFF' operation of this equivalent circuit model is simulated by depending on the orientation of the magnetization of F1 and F2 rather than the strength of the external magnetic filed. Changing the coupling coefficient, turn number of two inductances, (L1:L2) like a transformer, and parallel variable resistance R4 connected to L2 at the collector region, we can explain the magnetic characteristics and the dependence of magneto resistance ratio on the orientation of spin-polarized electrons.

This paper presents the modeling of Single Electron Transistor (SET) based on Physical model of a device and its equivalent circuit. The physical model is derived from Schrodinger equation. The wave function of the electrode is calculated using Hartree-Fock method and the quantum dot calculation is obtained from WKB approximation. The resulting wave functions are used to compute tunneling rates. From the tunneling rate the current is calculated. The equivalent circuit model discuss about the effect of capacitance on tunneling probability and free energy change. The parameters of equivalent circuit are extracted and optimized using genetic algorithm. The effect of tunneling probability, temperature variation effect on tunneling rate, coulomb blockade effect and current voltage characteristics are discussed.

This paper describes the development of a low-power electrocardiogram (ECG) touch sensor intended for the use with two dry metal electrodes. An equivalent ECG extraction circuit model encountered in a ground-free two-electrode configuration is investigated for an optimal sensor read-out circuit design criteria. From the equivalent circuit model, (1) maximum sensor resolution is derived based on the electrode's background thermal noise, which originates from high electrode-skin contact impedance, together with the input referred noise of instrumentation amplifier (IA), (2) 60 Hz electrostatic coupling from mains and motion artifact are also considered to determine minimum requirement of common mode rejection ratio (CMRR) and input impedance of IA. A dedicated ECG read-out front end incorporating chopping scheme is introduced to provide an input referred circuit noise of 1.3 ${\mu}V_{rms}$ over 0.5 Hz ~ 200 Hz, CMRR of IA > 100 dB, sensor resolution of 7 bits, and dissipating only 36 ${\mu}W$. Together with 8 bits synchronous successive approximation register (SAR) ADC, the sensor IC chip is implemented in 0.18 ${\mu}m$ CMOS technology and integrated on a 5 cm $\times$ 8 cm PCB with two copper patterned electrodes. With the help of proposed touch sensor, ECG signal containing QRS complex and P, T waves are successfully extracted by simply touching the electrodes with two thumbs.

A novel analytic solution has been derived for the bird-cage receiver coil of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system, which is widely used in 3-dimensional medical imaging, by transforming the coil into an equivalent circuit model by using a transmission matrix-based circuit analysis. The bird-cage coil composed of N legs is divided into a cell for which input impedance is to be analyzed and the remaining N-1 cells, and then a transmission matrix corresponding to the N-1 cells is converted into a circuit to transform the 3-dimensional bird-cage coil into the 2-dimensional equivalent circuit model, which is suitable to derive the analytic solution for the input impedance. The proposed method derives directly the analytic solution for the input impedance at an arbitrary point of the coil unlike the conventional analytic solution of a bird-cage coil, so that it can be used not only for resonance frequency calculations but also for various coil characteristics analyses. Since the analytic solution agreed well with the results of computational simulations, it can be useful for the impedance matching of a coil and the analysis and the design of a multi-tune bird-cage coil.

A signal line potential variation due to the delta-I noise was physically investigated in CMOS integrated circuits. An equivalent circuit for the noise analysis was presented. The signal line was modeled as segmented RC-lumped circuits with the ground noise. Then the equivalent circuit was mathematically analyzed. Therebvy a new signal line potential variation model due to the switching mosie was developed. Th emodel was verified with 0.35.mu.m CMOS deivce model parameters. The model has an excellent agreement with HSPICE simulation. Thus the proposed model can be dirctly employed in the industry to design the high-performance integrted circuit design as well as integrated circuit package design.

The circuit modeling of interdigitated capacitors fabricated by high-k low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) sheets was investigated. The s-parameters of each test structure were measured from 50 MHz to 10 GHz, and the modeling was performed using these measured sparameters up to the first resonant frequency. Each test structure was divided into appropriate building blocks. The equivalent circuit of each building block was composed based on the partial element equivalent circuit (PEEC) method. Modeling was executed to optimize the parameters in the equivalent circuit of each building block. The validity of the extracted parameters was verified by the predictive modeling for the test structures with different geometry. After that, Monte Carlo analysis and sensitivity analysis were performed based on the extracted parameters. The modeling methodology can allow a device designer to improve the yield and to save time and cost for the design and manufacturing of devices.
