We proposed a new two-stage operational amplifier that increases the slew rate by adding some simple circuitry to the conventional structure. The proposed circuit is simulated by HSPICE and the slew rate of the proposed circuit is improved more than 10 times than that of conventional one in slewing state without considerable increments in area and power consumption.

This paper described a replica-delay adaptive lock-acquisition scheme for high-speed DLLs. The proposed scheme provides the fast and correct locking cycle that is variable according to the magnitude of the arbitrary replica delay (fixed delay). The scheme guarantees the wide operation range and the fast lock-aquisition time. It has been confirmed by HSPICE simulations in a 0.35${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS process.

In this paper, a new CMOS fully integrated frequency-to-digital converter is proposed. The operation of the proposed circuit is based on a pulse-shrinking delay element. In the proposed circuit, a resolution of the converted digital output can be easily improved by increasing the number of the pulse-shrinking element. Also the input frequency range can be easily changed through controlling bias voltage in the pulse-shrinking element. The simulation of the designed circuit carried out by HSPICE using the CMOS 0.35${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ process technology.

A low-power design technique for lithium-ion Battery-Protection Integrated Circuit (BPIC) for multi cell configuration is proposed. The hardware sharing scheme with more precisely divided operating states in the detection range could reduce the power consumption significantly, especially during the normal state. The usefulness of the proposed scheme was confirmed through HSPICE simulations.

This paper proposes a phase-locked loop (PLL) that achieves one-cycle lock acquisition by employing the lock-acquisition circuit (LAC). The LAC produces the initial analog voltage ( v$_{c}$ ) that corresponds to the input frequency. When the transfer curve of the LAC matches that of the voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), one-cycle locking can be possible. By HSPICE simulations, the proposed LAC is proved to be applicable to any kinds of PLL [1][2][3].].

This paper proposed a guideline for selecting the arithmetic circuit architecture. The guideline incorpo-rates the new concept of PDSP (power-delay-size product) and the weighting method. HSPICE simulations havc been performed to several full adders in order to prove the validity of the proposed guideline. We applied this guideline to select an optimized FA (full adder) architecture and successfully implemented the DAC's digital blocks.

The proposed clock generator lowers the operating frequency in a system core though it keeps data bandwidth high because it has a multiphase clocking architecture. Moreover. it has a dual loop which is comprised of an inner analog phase generation loop and outer digital phase control loop. It has both advantages of DLL's wide operating range and DLL's low jitter The proposed design has been demonstrated in terms of the concept and Hspice simulation. All circuits were designed using a 0.25${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS process and simulated with 2.5 V power supply.

This paper presents a simple method for estimating the maximum crosstalk noise of on-chip grobal wires. For the derivation of the maximum crosstalk expression we have modeled wires using lumped-elements that are composed of R, L and C. We have also used experimental constant to reduce the modeling error. The accuracy of the proposed method is verified by comparing against the HSPICE simulation results under the present process parameters and environmental conditions. The results of the proposed method can be used as an estimator in design-aid tools.

In this paper, an improved integer-N frequency synthesizer that can be synthesized into smaller channel space than input signal frequency is presented. The proposed frequency synthesizer also has an characteristics of fast phase locking time. The frequency synthesizer performed in the manner that it divides various outputs of different phases in VCO by means of dividers that have different control signals respectively and then add the divided signal. In order to confirm the characteristics of proposed frequency synthesizer, behavioral and SPICE simulations are performed using C-language and HSPICE respectively.

It is essential to estimate an effective inductance in a ground plane of muliti-layer IC package system in order to determine the simultaneous switching noise of the package. A new method to estimate the effective ground inductance in multi-layer IC package is presented. With the estimated ground plane inductance values, maximum switching noise variations according to the number of simultaneously switching drivers are investigated by developing a new SSN model. These results are verified by performing HSPICE simulation with the 0.35${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS technology.
