An effective technique to increase the signal swing and reduce noise is to use fully-differential -circuits. However, design of a common-mode feedback (CMFB) circuit that stabilizes the common-mode output level is essential. In this paper, a general description is given to fully-differential amplifiers with their CMFB loops, then a new error amplifier that is just composed of transistors and stabilizes the DC output level is proposed. We designed a simple and efficient bias circuit that allows the stability and maximum input swing. Simulation result shows the enhanced phase margin and increased differential-mode input swing with a proposed error amplifier.

This research proposes a high-frequency circuit that can accurately predict the differential mode noise of single-phase inverters at the circuit design stage. Proposed single-phase inverter high frequency circuit in the work is a form in which harmonic impedance components are added to the basic single-phase inverter circuit configuration. For accurate noise prediction, parasitic components present in each part of the differential noise path were extracted. Impedance was extracted using a network analyzer and Q3D in the measurement range of 150 kHz to 30 MHz. A high-frequency circuit model was completed by applying the measured values. Simulations and experiments were conducted to confirm the validity of the high-frequency circuit. As a result, we were able to predict the resonance point of the differential mode voltage extracted as an experimental value with a high-frequency circuit model within an approximately 10% error. Through this outcome, we could verify that differential mode noise can be accurately predicted using the proposed model of the high-frequency circuit without a separate test bench for noise measurement.

In this paper, a dual-mode balanced filter with symmetric coupled composite right/left-handed transmission line is introduced. Unlike the other symmetric structure, this configuration has the ability to operate under both common- and differential-mode excitation. These properties are achievable through providing physical short circuit by means of ground vias at the center of each unit-cell along the symmetry plane of the structure. Because the CRLH unit-cells are operated under both common- and differential-mode excitation, we implemented a balanced filter using these properties. To validity these features, a five-cell four port coupled CRLH-TL is simulated, fabricated and measured and the obtained performances agree with the simulation results under both common- and differential-mode excitation.

This paper presents a novel balanced filter design based on a metamaterial structure applicable to differential-mode excitation. The metamaterial structure is based on a unit-cell which under a differential-mode excitation behaves like composite right/left-handed(CRLH) metamaterial with filter characteristics. In contrast, the metamaterial unit-cell is below cut-off under a common-mode excitation. Experimental results are used to verify the proposed metamaterial's differential-mode characteristics. The metamaterial is fabricated with a balanced filter design resulting in an operating frequency range of 960~1000 MHz with a insertion loss of 4.1 dB.

In this paper, a compact common mode filter using passive elements is designed and fabricated. To design a common mode filter with required frequency response, the equivalent circuits of the common mode filter in differential mode and common mode were analyzed. Compared with the former filter using a ${\lambda}/4$ resonator, the size of the proposed structure was reduced by 60 %. The fabricated common mode filter has a maximum differential mode insertion loss of 1.2 dB and a minimum common mode absorption efficiency of 78.2% in the CMA - bandwidth of 27.5 %.

This paper defined design constraints for the compound CVTs (continuously variable trans-missions) by combining power-circulation-mode CVTs and power-split-mode CVTs, which were proposed for connecting 2K-H I-type differential gear to V-belt-type CVU (Continuously Variable Unit). The design constraints are the necessary and sufficient conditions to avoid geometrical interferences among elements in the compound CVTs, and to guarantee smooth assembly between the power-circulation-mode CVT and power-split-mode CVT Two com-pound CVTs were designed and manufactured in accordance with the design constraints. With these compound CVTs, theoretical analysis and performance experiments were conducted. The results showed that the design constraints were valid and effective design method, and that the designed compound CVTs had the improved performance.

In this work, signal transmission properties of SATA connector have been improved using its differential impedance calculation and its design revision to closer impedance matching. Using 3 dimensional electromagnetic field simulator, the differential mode S-parameter was calculated to investigate its signal fidelity. The differential impedance is calculated from the equation of the odd mode impedance with inductance, capacitance, mutual inductance, and mutual capacitance. The differential impedance of SATA connector was calculated to be $107.3{\Omega}$ and did not meet the design specification with $100{\Omega}{\pm}5%$. In order to achieve its impedance range and improve its signal transmission properties, SATA connector's design has been revised with two different directions and analyzed through the calculation of differential impedance, differential reflection loss, and differential insertion loss.
