In this paper, an Analog Flat Panel interface(AFPI) which supports for UXGa(Ultar extended Graphics Array)-Compatible TFT LCD Driver is designed. The Proposed AFPI is composed of 8-b ADC, Automatic Gain Control(AGC), Low-Jitter PLL. In order to obtain a high speed and low power consumption, an efficient architecture of 8-bit ADC is proposed, whose FR(Folding Rate) is 8, NFB(Number of Folding Block) is 2, and IR (Interpolating Rate) is 16. We can get high SNDR by adopting distributed track and hold circuits. Also a programmable AGC which is possible to control gain and clamp, and a low-jitter PLL are proposed. The chip has been fabricated with 0.25${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ 1-poly S-metal n-well CMOS technology. The effective chip area is 3.6mm $\times$ 3.2mm and it dissipates about 602㎽ at 2.5V power supply. The INL and DNL are within $\pm$ 1LSB. The measured SNDR is about 43㏈, when the input frequency is 10MHz at 200MHz clock frequency.

This study aims to present the need to supplement the driver's license renewal test for elderly drivers. In Korea, the proportion of elderly drivers is increasing as the elderly population increases rapidly. Overall the traffic accident rate is decreasing but the traffic accident and death rate from traffic accidents are increasing in older drivers. In this study the assessments and education conducted when renewing the driver's license for elderly drivers conducted in Korea were conducted to find out the necessary tests compared to the current situation of foreign countries. Although it is appropriate to evaluate the three key functional areas of vision, cognition, motor and somatosensory, we currently evaluate visual acurity in vison area. While MMSE-K and Clock drawing tests are not recognizable for mild cognitive impairment in cognitive areas. The motor and somato sensory function to perform driving are not evaluated at all. Therefore for safe driving of older drivers, the test to be conducted during renewal of the driver's license will need to supplement that the visual field and contrast sensitivity in vision area, cognitive function from mild cognitive impairments, and the endurance, functional range of motion and proprioception in motor function area.

In this paper, we propose interface circuits for reducing power consumption and EMI when sequences of data from LCD controller to LCD driver IC by transmitting two bit data during one clock period. The proposed circuits are operated in current mode, which is different from conventional voltage-mode signaling techniques, and also employ threshold technique of Modified-LVDS(Low Voltage Differential Signaling) method. We have simulated the proposed circuits using H-SPICE tool for performance analysis of the proposed method. The simulation results show that the proposed circuits provide a faster transmission speed and stronger noise immunity than the conventional LVDS circuits. It might be suitable for the real-time transmission of huge image data in LCD system.

A novel linear switched termination active cross-coupled low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) transceiver operating at 1.5 GHz clock frequency is presented. On the transmitter side, an active cross-coupled linear output driver and a switched termination scheme are applied to achieve high speed with low current. On the receiver side, a shared pre-amplifier scheme is employed to reduce power consumption. The proposed LVDS transceiver implemented in an 80 nm CMOS process is successfully demonstrated to provide a data rate of 6 Gbps/pin, an output data window of 147 ps peak-to-peak, and a data swing of 196 mV. The power consumption is measured to be 4.2 mW/pin at 1.2 V.

This paper describes 1.2-V 5-Gb/s scalable low voltage signaling(SLVS) differential transmitter(TX) with a digital impedance calibration and equalizer. The proposed transmitter consists of a phase-locked loop(PLL) with 4-phase output clock, a 4-to-1 serializer, a regulator, an output driver, and an equalizer driver for improvement of the signal integrity. A pseudo random bit sequence generator is implemented for a built-in self-test. The proposed SLVS transmitter provides the output differential swing level from 80mV to 500mV. The proposed SLVS transmitter is implemented by using a 65-nm CMOS with a 1.2-V supply. The measured peak-to-peak time jitter of the implemented SLVS TX is about 46.67 ps at the data rate of 5Gb/s. Its power consumption is 1.88 mW/Gb/s.

A 40-MS/sec 10-bit pipelined analog to digital converter (ADC) with a 1.2 Vpp differential input signal is proposed. The implemented pipelined ADC consists of eight stages of 1.5 bit/stage, one stage of 2 bit/stage, a digital error correction block, band-gap reference circuit & reference driver, and clock generator. The 1.5 bit/stage consists of a sub-ADC, digital to analog (DAC), and gain stage, and the 2.0 bit/stage consists of only a 2-bit sub-ADC. A bootstrapped switch with a constant resistance is proposed to improve the linearity of the input switch. It reduces the maximum VGS variation of the conventional bootstrapped switch by 67%. The proposed bootstrapped switch is used in the first 1.5 bit/stage instead of a sample-hold amplifier (SHA). This results in the reduction of the hardware and power consumption. It also increases the input bandwidth and dynamic performance. A reference voltage for the ADC is driven by using an on-chip reference driver without an external reference. A digital error correction with a redundancy is also used to compensate for analog noise such as an input offset voltage of a comparator and a gain error of a gain stage. The proposed pipelined ADC is implemented by using a 0.18-${\mu}m$ 1- poly 5-metal CMOS process with a 1.8 V supply. The total area including a power decoupling capacitor and the power consumption are 0.95 $mm^2$ and 51.5 mW, respectively. The signal-to-noise and distortion ratio (SNDR) is 56.15 dB at the Nyquist frequency, resulting in an effective number of bits (ENOB) of 9.03 bits.

Recently, machine learning algorithms, especially deep learning-based algorithms, have been receiving attention due to its high classification performance. Among the algorithms, Convolutional Neural Network(CNN) is known to be efficient for image processing tasks used for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems(ADAS). However, it is difficult to achieve real-time processing for CNN in vehicle embedded software environment due to the repeated operations contained in each layer of CNN. In this paper, we propose a hardware accelerator which enhances the execution time of CNN by parallelizing the repeated operations such as convolution. Xilinx ZC706 evaluation board is used to verify the performance of the proposed accelerator. For $36{\times}36$ input images, the hardware execution time of CNN is 2.812ms in 100MHz clock frequency and shows that our hardware can be executed in real-time.

The purpose of this study is to develop a parking behavior model in prior step for solv-ing parking problems in Pusan C. B. D. The results of this study are as follows; In the C. B. D of Pusan the peak parking time is between 2 and 3 o'clock P. M., and the average parking duration is 237 minutes. It means the use of parking lots is very ineffi-cient. Hence in order to shorten the parking duration, it is very urgent for drivers to chan-ge parking attitude. The walking distance from the parking lots to his destination is below 300∼500m, so the establishment of parking areas and the arrangement of parking lots in C. B. D should be planned on the base of the above walking distance. The model distinguishing between legal and illegal parking behaviors is derived from the binary decision model. The selected model has the correlation rate, η2=0.505 which is relatively high value This result shows that the detetminating judgement on the legal and illegal parking behavior is influenced mutually such factors as driver's occupation parking purpose monthly income distance to his destination averaged parking duration and age.
