  • This paper describes expandable 4 bit ALU IC using adiabatic and dynamic CMOS circuit technique. It was designed so that the integrated circuit may have the function which is equivalent to HC181 which is CMOS standard logic IC for the comparison, and it was fabricated using a standard 1.2${\mu}$ CMOS process. As the result, the IC has shown that it operates perfectly on all function modes. The power dissipation is 2 order lower than that of HC 181.

  • Recently, the hybrid system combining fuel cell and gas turbine has drawn much attention owing to its high efficiency and ultra low emission. It is now on the verge of world wide development and various system configurations have been proposed. A national project funded by Korean government has also been initiated to develop a pressurized hybrid system. This work aims at presenting design performance analysis for various possible system configurations as an initial step for the system development. Study focuses are given to major design options including the power ratio between gas turbine and fuel cell, reforming method (internal or external), reforming heat source (reforming burner, cathode hot air, fuel cell heat release) and steam supply method for reformer (anode gas recirculation, external steam generator). A wide variation in performance among different configurations has been predicted.

  • In this paper, we suggest the design of OP-AMP using MOSFET in the operation of sub-threshold condition as a basic unit of an IoT. The sub-threshold operation of MOSFET is useful for an ultra low power consumption of sensor network system in the IoT, because it cause the supply voltage to be reduced. From the simulation result using 0.35 um CMOS process, the supply voltage, VDD can be reduced with 0.6 V, open-loop gain of 43 dB and the power consumption was evaluated with about $1.3{\mu}W$ and the active size for an integration was measured with $64{\mu}m{\times}105{\mu}m$. It is expected that the proposed circuit is applied to the low power sensor network for IoT.

  • The sensors in a ubiquitous network are limited because of the low power and ultra light weight, so many studies have revolved around the sensor. This study improves the process of the registration and authorization and suggests a way to minimize discloser of privacy by using an alias. We introduce RA(Relay Agent) for the restrict function of sensor node, and improve anonymity for private information of each sensor node by assigning alias from SM(Service Manager) in procedure of registration and authentication. The privacy of sensor node is secure in procedure of registration, authentication, and communication between nodes. We could improve the level of security with the only partial increment of computation power of RA and SM without an increase in the amount of sensor nodes.

  • Conventional synchronous circuits in low power required systems such as sensor systems cannot only satisfy the timing requirement of the low voltage digital systems, but also they may generate wrong outputs under the influence of PVT variations and aging effects. Therefore, in the reliable ultra-low power design, asynchronous circuits have recently been reconsidered as a solution for scaling issues. However, it is not easy to totally replace synchronous circuits with asynchronous circuits in the digital systems, so the interfacing between the synchronous and asynchronous circuits is indispensable for the digital systems. This paper presents a new design for interfacing between asynchronous circuits and synchronous circuits, and the interface circuits are applied to a $4{\times}4$ multiplier logic designed using 0.11um technology.

  • In this paper, a new circuit topology of an ultra-wideband (UWB) 3.1-10.6GHz CMOS low noise amplifier is presented. The proposed UWB low noise amplifier is designed utilizing RC feedback and LC filter networks which can provide good input impedance matching. In this design, the current-reused topology is adopted to reduce the power consumption and the inductor-peaking technique is applied for the purpose of bandwidth extension. The performance results of this UWB low noise amplifier simulated in $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS process technology exhibit a power gain of 14-14.9dB, an input matching of better than -10.8dB, gain flatness of 0.9dB, and a noise figure of 2.7-3.3dB in the frequency range of 3.1-10.6GHz. In addition, the input IP3 is -5dBm and the power consumption is 12.5mW.

  • We consider the problem of low-sampling rate high-resolution channel estimation and timing for digital ultrawideband (UWB) receivers. We extend some of our recent results in sampling of certain classes of parametric non-bandlimited signals and develop a frequency domain method for channel estimation and synchronization in ultra-wideband systems, which uses sub-Nyquist uniform sampling and well-studied computational procedures. In particular, the proposed method can be used for identification of more realistic channel models, where different propagation paths undergo different frequency-selective fading. Moreover, we show that it is possible to obtain high-resolution estimates of all relevant channel parameters by sampling a received signal below the traditional Nyquist rate. Our approach leads to faster acquisition compared to current digital solutions, allows for slower A/D converters, and potentially reduces power consumption of digital UWB receivers significantly.

  • In concert with the growing emphasis placed on distributed power generation there will be a need, in the first decade of the 21th century, for a compact thermal energy system capable of providing the total energy needs of individual homes. A natural gas fueled co-generation micro-turbine with ultra low emission will meet this need. Market opportunities for a distributed micro turbine co-generation system are projected to increase dramatically. In this paper, It was determined that with current state of art component performance levels, metrallic materials, thermal efficiency goal of $28\%$ at sea level standard day conditions are attainable. Higher overall thermal efficiency of $78\%$ is attainable with micro-turbine combined with exhaust fired boilers.

  • The developent of ceramic combustor is being increased beca- use of the excellent physical properties of ceramic material, that is, high-resistant strength, high emissivity power and high corrosin-resistance. Ceramic combustor has been interested in the application of ultra-lean combustion for low NO$_{x}$ emission and gaseuos waste incineration with good combustion. This experimental study was conducted to investigate the combustion and emission characteristics of wall recess type ceramic combustor with equivalence ratio, mixture flow velocity and wall recess depth as parameters. The results in this study are as follows: 1. Wall recess played a important role to extend flame stability region. 2. The peak temperature of gas was peoportional to equivalence ratio, mixture flow velocity and wall recess depth. 3. The static pressure of mixing chamber and inlet temperature depended on the position of flame zone. 4. NO reduction was achieved by lean mixture without lower combustibility.y.
