A novel digital instrumentation amplifier(DIA) converting universal signal inputs into 5V voltage-output for industry standard sensor signal processing was designed. The circuit consists of a commercial instrumentation amplifier, seven analog switches, two voltage references of 1.0V and -10.0V, and four resistors. The converting principle is the circuit reconstruction by switches for resistor values and reference voltages according to input signals. The simulation result shows that the DIA has a good output voltage characteristics of 0~5V for the input voltage of 0V~5V, 1V~5V, -10V~+10V, and 4mA~20mA. The nonlinearity error was less than 0.1% for the four type signal inputs.

This paper proposes new phase error compensation method of RVDT encoder in the FFT domain. Phase errors are measured with a small combination of compensation resistors and the changes of first order coefficients of FFT for each resistor are obtained. It is found that the coefficient change is inversely proportional to the inserted resistor. The proposed method takes less time and the size of the table is smaller than previous time domain approaches. In addition, the location of the compensation resistor can be found through axis transformation of the coefficients. Finally, the peak-to-peak phase error was improved to 0.57 which is two times better than previous one.

Self-excited induction generators (SEIG) are gaining importance as compared to conventional generators due to their capability toconvert wind energy into electrical energy for a wide range of variation in operating speed. The performance of such a generator depends upon the load, rotor speed and excitation capacitance. Therefore, depending upon the operating conditions, the output voltage and frequency of this machine goes on changing and this imposes a restriction on its usage. In order to maintain constant voltage and frequency, it need controllers, which make the circuit complicated and also increases the overall cost of power generation. This paper presents a simple controller to regulate the output voltage and frequency of SEIG for variation in its operating conditions due to any change in load, rotor speed and excitation capacitance (R, N, C) and their combination. The controller presented is simple in design, user friendly and is also less expensive, as the elements used in the controller are only resistors, inductors and capacitors. A block of SEIG for steady state operation is also modeled and presented in this paper. SEIG, Controller and other components are modeled and simulated using Matlab/Simulink.

TiNxOy/TiNx multilayer thin films with a high resistance (~ k$Omega$) were deposited on SiO2/Si substrates at room temperature by sputtering. The TiNx thin films show island and smooth surface morphology in samples prepared by dc and rf magnetron sputtering, respectively. TiNxOy/TiNx multilayer has been developed to control temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) by the incorporation of TiNx layer (positive TCR) inserted into TiNxOy layers(negative TCR). Electrical and structural properties of sputtered TiNxOy/TiNx multilayer films were investigated as a function of annealing temperature. In order to achieve a stable high resistivity, multilayer films were annealed at various temperatures in oxygen ambient. Samples annealed at 700 oC for 1 min exhibit a good TCR value and a stable high resistivity.

All the resistors in the active RC filter networks cab be replaced by the switched capaciters, The swiftched capacitor is much bet tar than a resistor in temperature and linearity characteristics, and the former can be fabricated on the much smaller silicon area than the latter. In this paper, it is given the generaliged design method of the active SC filter from the active RC filter using Bilinear Z-transformatirm. SC filtering techniques using Bilinear Z-transform enable us to realize the FDNR and Gyrator filters which could not be realized by the exsisting designs 1 and to utilize the processing of signals at much higher frequencies than the conventional design method. Experiments show that the response of the active SC filter is similiar to that of its prototype active RC filler.

This paper presents a CMOS multi-mode baseband filter architecture to support PDC/GSM/EDGE/WCDMA and its new automatic tuning method. 5-th order Chebyshev low pass filter is designed for implementing the baseband channel-select filter. Capacitors and resistors were shared efficiently between modes to minimize the area. And, the new cut-off frequency tuning method is proposed to compensate the process variation. This method can reduce the area and the noise level due to MOS switches.

The key advantage of LTCC(low temperature co-fired ceramics) technology is the ability to integrate passive components such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors. More compact circuits with an increased scale of integration are needed with the development for advanced telecommunication system such as IMT-2000. LTCC technology can be obtained by removing these elements from the substrate surface to inside of ceramic body. And it can miniaturize the wireless phone through integration of planar patch antenna, duplexer, band pass filter, bias line, circuit of impedance matching and RF choke etc. Futhermore, with the multilayer chip process and its outstanding electrical material characteristics, LTCC is predestined for highly-integrated, cost effective wide band applications. This paper focuses on the general description of LTCC MCM technologies and the fabrication of the multilayer VCO module.

The impulse between launch vehicle and atmosphere can generate a lot of noise and vibration during the process of launching a satellite. Structurally, the electronic equipment of a satellite consists of an aluminum case containing PCB. Each PCB has resistors and IC. Noise and vibration of the wide frequency band are transferred to the inside of fairing, subsequently creating vibration of the electronic equipment of the satellite. In this situation, random vibration can cause malfunctioning of the electronic equipment of the device. Furthermore, when the frequency of random vibration meets with natural frequency of PCB, fatigue fracture may occur in the part of solder joint. The launching environment, thus, needs to be carefully considered when designing the electronic equipment of a satellite. In general, the safety of the electronic equipment is supposed to be related to the natural frequency, shapes of mode and dynamic deflection of PCB in the electronic equipment. Structural vibration analysis of PCB and its electronic components can be performed using either FEM or vibration test. In this study, the natural frequency and dynamic deflection of PCB are measured by FEM, and the safety of the electronic components of PCB is evaluated according to the results. This study presents a unique method for finite element modeling and analysis of PCB and its electronic components. The results of FEA are verified by vibration test. The method proposed herein may be applicable to various designs ranging from the electronic equipments of a satellite to home electronics.

The object of this study is to develop a mathematical model of the hemodialysis system including the mechanism of solute kinetics, water exchange and also cardiovascular dynamics. The cardiovascular system model used in this study simulates the short-term transient and steady-state hemodynamic responses such as hypotension and disequilibrium syndrome (which are main complications to hemodialysis patients) during hemodialysis. It consists of a 12 lumped-parameter representation of the cardiovascular circulation connected to set-point models of the arterial baroreflexes, a kinetic model (hemodialysis system model) with 3 compartmental body fluids and 2 compartmental solutes. We formulate mathematically this model in terms of an electric analog model. All resistors and most capacitors are assumed to be linear. The control mechanisms are mediated by the information detected from arterial pressoreceptors, and they work on systemic arterial resistance, heart rate, and systemic venous unstressed volume. The hemodialysis model includes the dynamics of urea, creatinine, sodium and potassium in the intracellular and extracellular pools as well as fluid balance equations for the intracellular, interstitial, and plasma volumes. Model parameters are largely based on literature values. We have presented the results on the simulations performed by changing some model parameters with respect to their basal values. In each case, the percentage changes of each compartmental pressure, heart rate (HR), total systemic resistance (TSR), ventricular compliance, zero pressure filling volume and solute concentration profiles are represented during hemodialysis.

In this paper, we designed the 3-axis isotropic electric-field measurement probe using resistor-loaded short dipole with lumped chip resistors. The designed probe shows good isotropic characteristics as well as wideband and low sensitivity. The isotropic characteristics of ${\pm}0.39dB$ from 100 kHz to the 3 GHz band were derived and the reception sensitivity was 0.1 V/m. The frequency response is within 3 dB of the whole section, especially ${\pm}1.3dB$ from 150 kHz to 3 GHz, which is superior to the conventional electric field probe with short dipoles.
