The feedback voltage detection structure is proposed to alleviate overshoot and undershoot caused by the removal of the existing external output capacitor. Conventional LDO regulators suffer from overshoot and undershoot caused by imbalances in the power supply voltage. Therefore, the proposed LDO is designed to have a more improved transient response to form a new control path while maintaining only the feedback path of the conventional LDO regulator. A new control path detects overshoot and undershoot events in the output stage. Accordingly, the operation speed of the pass element is improved by charging and discharging the current of the gate node of the pass element. LDO regulators with feedback voltage sensing architecture operate over an input voltage range of 3.3V to 4.5V and have a load current of up to 200mA at an output voltage of 3V. According to the simulation result, when the load current is 200mA, it is 73mV under the undershoot condition and 61mV under the overshoot condition.

Against environmental stresses, many bacteria utilize the alternate sigma factor RpoS that induces transcription of the specific set of genes helpful in promoting bacterial survival. Intracellular levels of RpoS are determined mainly by its turnover through proteolysis of ClpXP protease. Delivery of RpoS to ClpXP strictly requires the adaptor protein RssB. The two-component-type response regulator RssB constantly interacts with RpoS, but diverse environmental changes inhibit this interaction through modification of RssB activity, which increases RpoS levels in bacteria. This review discusses and summarizes recent findings on regulatory factors in RssB-RpoS interactions, including IraD, IraM, IraP anti-adaptor proteins of RssB and phosphorylation of N-terminal receiver domain of RssB. New information shows that the coordinated regulation of RssB activity in controlling RpoS turnover confers efficient bacterial defense against stresses.

This paper proposes a low-dropout voltage regulator(LDO) using self-cascode structure. The self-cascode structure was optimized by adjusting the channel length of the source-side MOSFET and applying a forward voltage to the body of the drain-side MOSFET. The self-cascode of the input differential stage of the error amplifier is optimized to give higher transconductance, but the self-cascode of the output stage is optimized to give higher output resistance, The proposed LDO using self-cascode structure was designed by a $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS technology and simulated using SPECTRE. The load regulation of the proposed LDO regulator was 0.03V/A, whereas that of the conventional LDO was 0.29V/A. The line regulation of the proposed LDO regulator was 2.23mV/V, which is approximately three times improvement compared to that of the conventional LDO. The transient response of the proposed LDO regulator was 625ns, which is 346ns faster than that of the conventional LDO.

Miller feedback compensation is introduced in a low dropout regulator (LDO) in order to obtain a capacitor-free regulator and improve the fast transient response. The conventional LDO has a limited bandwidth because of the large-size output capacitor and parasitic gate capacitance in the power MOSFET. In order to obtain a stable frequency response without the output capacitor, LDO is designed with resistor-capacitor (R-C) compensation and this is achieved with a connection between the gain-stage and the power MOS. An R-C compensator is suggested to provide a pole and zero to improve the stability. The proposed LDO is designed with the 0.35 μm CMOS process. Simulation testing shows that the phase margin in the Bode plot indicates a stable response, which is over 100^o. In the load regulation, the transient time is within 55 μs when the load current changes from 0.1 to 1 mA.

The DevSR two-component system is a major regulatory system involved in redox sensing in Mycobacterium smegmatis. The DevSR system consists of the DevS histidine kinase and its cognate DevR response regulator. When exposed to hypoxic conditions, the DevS histidine kinase is activated to phosphorylate the DevR response regulator, leading to the transcriptional activation of the DevR regulation. The ligand-binding state of the heme embedded in the N-terminal GAF domain of DevS determines the kinase activity of DevS. In this study, we demonstrated that the redox-responsive cysteine (C547) in the C-terminal kinase domain is involved in the redox-dependent control of DevS kinase activity. The formation of an intersubunit disulfide bond between the C547 residues in the presence of $O_2$ led to inactivation of DevS kinase activity. The reduction of the oxidized DevS with reductants such as $\beta$-mercaptoethanol and dithiothreitol resulted in the restoration of DevS kinase activity. It was demonstrated in vivo by complementation test that the substitution of C547 to alanine partially impaired the sensory function of DevS in M. smegmatis.

This article proposes the study and simulation of an RST regulator based on a double fed induction machine. The RST polynomial controller can improve the double fed induction machine performance in terms of overshoot, rapidity, cancellation of disturbance, and capacity to maintain a high level of performance. A control law is synthesized using an RST controller. Simulation results indicate that the proposed regulator has better performance response to speed variation, sensitivity to perturbation, and robustness. The designed control algorithm is tested on a simulation matlab code.

The bidirectional boost-buck chopper type AC voltage regulator is presented in this paper. The main characteristic of the AC chopper is the fact that it generates an output AC voltage larger or lower than the input AC one, depending of the instantaneous duty-cycle. Boost-buck chopper type AC voltage regulator, derived from the DC chopper modulated method, is a kind of direct AC-AC voltage converter and has many advantages: such as fast response speed, low harmonics and high power factor. It adopts high switching frequency AC chopper technique and can do wide range step less AC voltage regulation.

The development of an accurate and energy saving pneumatic regulator that may be applied to a variety of practical pressure control applications is described in this paper. A novel modified pulse width modulation(MPWM) valve pulsing algorithm allows the pneumatic regulator to become energy saying system. A comparison between the system response of conventional PWM algorithm and that of the modified PWM(MPWM) algorithm shows that control performance is almost the same, but energy saving is greatly improved by adopting this new MPWM algorithm. The effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm are demonstrated through experiments with various reference trajectories.
