The computerized cardiac analysis system, which acquires and analyzes the electrical activation signal propagating along the surface of the heart, is indispensible equipment for the open heart surgery and electrical cardiac study. In this paper, the design requirement and the electrical circuit analysis are performed to construct the multi-channel cardiac activation pre-amplifier necessary for a signal conditioning circuit. The general 64 channel configuration is expanded into 128 channels to enhance the spatial resolution on the mapped surface of the heart. The 128 channels pre-amplifier consists of input circuit, differential amplifier, right leg driven circuit and isolation part. It has distinct features; high voltage protection, leakage current limitation, isolation and the maximization of common mode rejection ratio with respect to the half-cell potential difference due to different electrode materials. The final pre-amplifier circuit is assembled with 8 boards, each of which composing of 16 channels.

A variety of bioactive secondary metabolites have been reported from plant-associated microorganisms. Halophytes, plants that can only grow in hypersaline area, were reported to host beneficial microorganisms such as plant growth-promoting endophytes. The microorganisms have been reported to show notable mutualistic symbiosis with halophytes to help them survive in high saline condition. Finding out bioactive secondary metabolites as well as elucidation of relationship(s) between microbes and the host halophyte has been paid attention, because of their functional diversity. Novel microbes often have associated with novel natural products. In an effort to investigate natural compounds with interesting structures from fungi, we selected plants from a distinct environmental setting which could be a promising source. Several fungi were isolated from halophyte or medicinal plants. Some strains of the fungi were cultivated on a large scale and extracted with ethyl acetate, which were subjected to a series of chromatographic methods, leading to the isolation of tens of compounds. The isolated compounds were identified by analysis of spectroscopic methods such as 1D-, 2D-NMR, and MS. Details of isolation, structure determination, and biological activities will be discussed.

COMS On-board FDIR(Failure Detection, Isolation and Recovery) functions are implemented on the on-board software to satisfy the autonomy and failure tolerance requirements. This paper presents concepts of COMS Failure Management with hierarchical layers and addresses the characteristics of the FDIR layer from low level to high level. It is aimed at giving the reader the understanding how the COMS FDIR was designed and how works. It first recalls what are the system level applicable requirements, which are based on the COMS mission requirements. Then it describes the philosophy and structure of the FDIR and subsequently breaks it down into the several FDIR layers. It could be used as an important and useful reference of the information to design and develop an automatic FDIR mechanism in the future.

This paper presents a new PWM DC/DC converter with multi-output using single secondary winding, which has two output characteristics of the isolation and non-isolation simultaneously. The proposed converter topology is consisted of the only one switch and single secondary winding. The proposed converter, therefore, has advantages not only low cost but also high power density. Operating principal of the proposed converter topology with conventional ZVT (Zero-Voltage-Transition) is illustrated in detail and the validity of the converter is verified with several interesting simulation results.

This paper proposes an advanced circuit for the fingerprint sensor signal processing. We increased the voltage between ridge and valley by modifying the parasitic capacitance eliminating circuit of sensor plate. The analog comparator was designed for comparing the sensor signal voltage with the reference signal voltage. We also propose an effective isolation strategy for removing noise and signal coupling of each sensor pixel. The fingerprint sensor circuit was designed and simulated, and the layout was performed.

Recently, STI process is getting attention as a necessary technology for making high density of semiconductor by devices isolation method. However, it does have various problems caused by CMP process, such as torn oxide defects, nitride residues on oxide, damages of si active region, contaminations due to post-CMP cleaning, difficulty of accurate end point detection in CMP process, etc. In this work, the various defects induced by CMP process was introduced and the above mentioned Problems of CMP process was examined in detail. Finally, the guideline of future CMP process was presented to reduce the effects of these defects.

This paper proposes a metal contact RF MEMS switch which utilizes a see-saw mechanism to acquire a switching action. The switch was built on a quartz substrate and involves vertical deflection of the beam under an applied actuation voltage of 5.46 volts over a signal line. The see-saw mechanism relieves much of the operation voltage required to actuate the switch. The switch has a stiff beam eliminating any stray mechanical forces. The switch has an excellent isolation of −90.9 dB (compared to − 58 dB in conventional designs ), the insertion of −0.2 dB, and a wide bandwidth of 88 GHz (compared to 40 GHz in conventional design ) making the switch suitable for wide band applications.

The silicon vertical hall devices are fabricated using a modified bipolar process. It consists of the thin p-layer at Si-$SiO_2$, interface and n-epi layer without $n^+$buried layer to improve the sensitivity and influence of interface effects. Experimental samples are a sensor type I with and type H without p+isolation dam adjacent to the center current electrode. The experimental results for both type show a more high current-related sensitivity than the former's vertical hall devices. The sensitivity of type H and type I are about 150 V/AT and 340 V/AT, respectively. This sensor's behavior can be explained by the similar J-FET model.

A lumped parameter model is proposed for the analysis of dynamic behaviour of a Passive Hydraulic Engine Mount (PHEM), incorporating inertia track and throttle, which is characterized by effective and efficient vibration isolation behaviour in the range of both low and high frequencies. Most of the model parameters, including volume compliance of the throttle chamber, effective piston area, fluid inertia and resistance of inertia track and throttle are identified by an experimental approach. Numerical predictions are obtained through a finite element method for responses of dynamic stiffness of the rubber spring. The experiments are made for the purpose of PHEM validation. Comparison of numerical results with experimental observations has shown that the present PHEM achieves good performance for vibration isolation.
