Abstract:

Digital oscilloscope’s structure has analog signal acquisition circuit, which transforms signal’s amplitude to fit ADC dynamic range. This circuit is commonly called oscilloscope’s vertical or front-end amplifier. Difficulty in designing front-end amplifiers in GHz range largely affects higher frequency range oscilloscope’s price. This work is focused on designing a front-end amplifier using discrete and openly sold components. We propose a design for attenuator, buffer, variable gain circuits. Amplifier’s prototype is designed. Main characteristics of the amplifier were measured. Measured bandwidth is 3 GHz. Amplifier’s gain and attenuation can support vertical scale sensitivity range from 10 mV/div to 1 V/div. Step response distortion is under 10 %. SMD and PTH relay model attenuators were evaluated. In this paper we review oscilloscope’s front-end purpose and structure. We review amplifiers design and provide the results of experimental measurements.

Abstract:

This paper presents two new inductorless differential variable-gain transimpedance amplifiers (DVGTIA) with voltage bias controlled variable gain designed in TowerJazz’s 0.18 µm SiGe BiCMOS technology (using CMOS transistors only). Both consist of a modified differential cross-coupled regulated cascode preamplifier stage and a cascaded amplifier stage with bias-controlled gain-variation and third-order interleaving feedback. The designs have wide measured transimpedance gain ranges of 24.5–60.6 dBΩ and 27.8–62.8 dBΩ with bandwidth above 6.42 GHz and 5.22 GHz for DVGTIA designs 1 and 2 respectively. The core power consumptions are 30.7 mW and 27.5 mW from a 1.8 V supply and the input referred noise currents are 10.3 pA/√Hz and 21.7 pA/√Hz. The DVGTIA designs 1 and 2 have a dynamic range of 40.4 µA to 3 mA and 76.8 µA to 2.7 mA making both suitable for real photodetectors with an on-chip photodetector capacitive load of 250 fF. Both designs are compact with a core area of 100 µm × 85 µm.

Abstract:

This paper presents a methodology to design a wideband radio frequency variable gain amplifier (RF-VGA) in a low-cost SiGe BiCMOS 0.35 μm process. The circuit uses two Class A amplifiers based on second-generation controlled current conveyors (CCCII). The main feature of this circuit is the wideband input match along with a reduced NF (5.5–9.6 dB) and, to the authors’ knowledge, the lowest die footprint reported (62 × 44 μm2 area). The implementation of the RF-VGA based on CCCII allows a wideband input match without the need of passive elements. Due to the nature of the circuit, when the gain is increased, the power consumption is reduced. The architecture is suitable for designing wideband, low-power, and low-noise amplifiers. The proposed design achieves a tunable gain of 6.7–18 dB and a power consumption of 1.7 mA with a ±1.5 V DC supply. At maximum gain, the proposed RF-VGA covers from DC up to 1 GHz and can find application in software design radios (SDRs), the low frequency medical implant communication system (MICS) or industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) bands.

Abstract:

The first stage of the petawatt excimer laser project started at the P.N. Lebedev Physical Institute, implements a development of multiterawatt hybrid GARPUN-MTW laser facility for generation of ultra-high intensity subpicosecond ultraviolet (UV) laser pulses. Under this project, a multi-stage e-beam-pumped 100-J, 100-ns GARPUN KrF laser was upgraded with a femtosecond Ti:Sapphire front-end, to produce combined subpicosecond/nanosecond laser pulses with variable time delay. Attractive possibility to amplify simultaneously short and long pulses in the same large-scale KrF amplifiers is analyzed with regard to the fast-ignition, inertial confinement fusion problem. Detailed description of hybrid laser system is presented with synchronized KrF and Ti:Sapphire master oscillators. Based on gain and absorption measurements at GARPUN amplifier and numerical simulations with a quasi-stationary code, we are predicting that 1.6 J can be obtained in a short pulse at hybrid GARPUN-MTW Ti:Sapphire/KrF laser facility, combined with several tens of joules in nanosecond pulse. Amplified spontaneous emission, which is responsible for the pre-pulse formation on a target, was also investigated: its acceptable level can be provided by properly choosing staged gain or loading the amplifiers by quasi-steady laser radiation. Fluorescence and transient absorption spectra of Ar/Kr/F2 mixtures conventionally used in KrF amplifiers were recorded to find out the possibility for femtosecond pulse amplification at the broadband Kr2F (42Γ → 1,2 2Γ) transition, which benefits in 100 times higher saturation energy density than for KrF (B → X) transition.

Abstract:

This paper reports a reconfigurable wideband passive mixer for direct conversion multimode multi-standard receivers. Different from the traditional current-commutating passive mixers, transconductor stage of this design is variable. And the TIA stage is a second-order low-pass transimpedance amplifiers based on Tow-Thomas biquad topology, working as a current mode filter. The mixer is controlled by a 4-bit control word to realize the flexible gain and variable intermediate frequency bandwidth. Other characteristics such as power consumption, NF, and linearity is also reconfigurable according to different communication standard. Circuit is implementing in 0.18μm CMOS technology. Post-simulation results show that, with the radio frequency ranges from 700 MHz to 2.6 GHz, it provides four voltage conversion gains (10/16/22/28dB) and three-3 dB intermediate frequency bandwidth (5/7.5/10MHz). Under the maximum gain, the double sideband NF of the mixer is 8.4 dB. And under the minimum gain, IIP3 is 13 dBm. The chip occupies an area of 0.248 mm2 and drains a current of 8.5mA from a 1.8 V supply when the mixer has highest gain.

Abstract:

In this paper, we report optical characteristics of an organic single crystal oligomer 5,5⁗-diphenyl-2,2′:5′,2″:5″,2‴:5‴,2⁗-quinquethiophene (P5T). P5T crystal is a thiophene/phenylene co-oligomer that possesses better charge mobility as well as photoluminescence quantum efficiency (PLQE) as compared to other organic materials. Stimulated emission in P5T is investigated via amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) measurements within broad pump energies ranging from 35.26 to 163.34 µJ/cm2. An Nd-YAG femtosecond-tunable pulsed laser is used as a pump energy source for the ASE measurements of P5T crystals at an excitation wavelength of 445 nm. The ASE spectra exhibit optical amplification in P5T crystals at a 625 nm peak wavelength with a lower threshold energy density (Eth) ≈ 52.64 μJ/cm2. P5T also demonstrates higher optical gain with a value of 72 cm−1, that is calculated by using the variable stripe-length method. The value of PLQE is measured to be 68.24% for P5T. This study proposes potential applications of P5T single crystals in organic solid state lasers, photodetectors, and optical amplifiers.

Abstract:

A highly reconfigurable open-loop analog baseband circuitry with programmable gain, bandwidth and filter order are proposed for integrated linear frequency modulated continuous wave (LFMCW) radar receivers in this paper. This analog baseband chain allocates noise, gain and channel selection specifications to different stages, for the sake of noise and linearity tradeoffs, by introducing a multi-stage open-loop cascaded amplifier/filter topology. The topology includes a course gain tuning pre-amplifier, a folded Gilbert variable gain amplifier (VGA) with a symmetrical dB-linear voltage generator and a 10-bit R-2R DAC for fine gain tuning, a level shifter, a programmable Gm-C low pass filter, a DC offset cancellation circuit, two fixed gain amplifiers with bandwidth extension and a novel buffer amplifier with active peaking for testing purposes. The noise figure is reduced with the help of a low noise pre-amplifier stage, while the linearity is enhanced with a power-efficient buffer and a novel high linearity Gm-C filter. Specifically, the Gm-C filter improves its linearity specification with no increase in power consumption, thanks to an alteration of the trans-conductor/capacitor connection style, instead of pursuing high linearity but power-hungry class-AB trans-conductors. In addition, the logarithmic bandwidth tuning technique is adopted for capacitor array size minimization. The linear-in-dB and DAC gain control topology facilitates the analog baseband gain tuning accuracy and stability, which also provides an efficient access to digital baseband automatic gain control. The analog baseband chip is fabricated using 130-nm SiGe BiCMOS technology. With a power consumption of 5.9~8.8 mW, the implemented circuit achieves a tunable gain range of −30~27 dB (DAC linear gain step guaranteed), a programmable −3 dB bandwidth of 18/19/20/21/22/23/24/25 MHz, a filter order of 3/6 and a gain resolution of better than 0.07 dB.

Abstract:

The Kerwin-Huelsman Newcomb (KHN) biquad is the natural choice for use as a ‘universal’ filter building block out of the several existing 3-amplifier biquadratic filter sections based on the two integrator loop or state variable realization of 2nd order systems. A modified version of the KHN biquad, which is electronically tunable almost linearly over a decade range of center frequency, is presented. For electronic tunability, instead of the direct use of a FET as a voltage variable resistance to control the time constants of the integrators, a novel approach of using voltage-controlled variable-gain amplifiers at the inputs of both the integrators and one immediately after the input signal has been suggested. The circuit is suitable for use as a tunable universal filtering module and can be easily digitally programmed.Comparative treatment of general tuning methods of active filters, and some methods of electronic tuning of active filters are discussed. A brief description of tuning algorithms of active filters is also given.

Abstract:

This paper presents a novel multi-channel type RF source module with solid-state power amplifiers for plasma generators. The proposed module is consisted of a DC control part, RF source generation part, and power amplification part. A 2-stage power amplifier (PA) is combined with a gallium arsenide hetero bipolar transistor (GaAs HBT) as a drive PA and a gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor (GaN HEMT) as a main PA, respectively. By employing 8 channels, the proposed module secures better area coverage on the wafer during semiconductor processes such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD), etching and so on. Additionally, each channel can be maintained at a constant output power because they have a gain factor tunable by a variable gain amplifier (VGA). For that reason, it is possible to have uniform plasma density on the wafer. The operating sequence is controllable by an external DC control port. Moreover, copper–tungsten (CuW) heat spreaders were applied to prevent RF performance degradation from heat generated by the high power amplifier (HPA), and a water jacket was implemented at the bottom of the power amplification part for liquid cooling. Drawing upon the measurement results, the output power at each channel was over 43 dBm (20 W) and the drain efficiency was more than 50% at 2.4 GHz.

The DDOFA was first introduced in Ref. 1 and was used to realize different analog circuits like integrators, filters and variable gain amplifiers. New CMOS realizations for the DDOFA are introduced in this literature. Furthermore the DDOFA is modified to realize a fully differential current conveyor (FDCC). Novel CMOS realizations of the FDCC are presented. The FDCC is used to realize second-order band pass–low-pass filter. Performance comparisons between the different realizations of the DDOFA and FDCC are given in this literature.

We focus on the oscillatory aspects of neural components and their roles in neural system functionality such as adaptability. This study provides an implementation of adaptive control by using a network system consisting of oscillators and capacitive couplers. The functionality of oscillators alone is fairly limited, but capacitive couplers change interaction between oscillators, enabling logical operations, absolute function, gain variable amplifiers, and adaptive control. We provide basic functional networks of oscillators and capacitive couplers and demonstrate adaptive control implementation based on these functions.

Abstract:

We designed and developed a 24 GHz surveillance FMCW (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) radar with a software-reconfigurable baseband. The developed radar system consists of transceiver, two selectable transmit antennas, eight parallel receive antennas, and a back-end module for data logging and to control the transceiver. The architecture of the developed radar system can support various waveforms, gain control of receive amplifiers, and allow the selection of two transmit antennas. To do this, we implemented the transceiver using a frequency synthesizer device and a two-step VGA (Variable Gain Amplifier) along with switch-controlled transmit antennas. To support high speed implementation features along with good flexibility, we developed a back-end module based on a FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) with a parallel architecture for the real-time data logging of the beat signals received from a multichannel 24 GHz transceiver. To verify the feasibility of the developed radar system, signal processing algorithms were implemented on a host PC. All measurements were carried out in an anechoic chamber to extract a 3D range-Doppler-angle map and target detections. We expect that the developed software-reconfigurable radar system will be useful in various surveillance applications.

Abstract:

Communication usually applies feedback loop–based filters and amplifiers to ensure undistorted delivery of messages. Such an amplifier acts during Drosophila melanogaster midoogenesis, when oskar messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) anchoring depends on its own locally translated protein product. We find that the motor regulator Klar β mediates a gain-control process that prevents saturation-based distortions in this positive feedback loop. We demonstrate that, like oskar mRNA, Klar β localizes to the posterior pole of oocytes in a kinesin-1–dependent manner. By live imaging and semiquantitative fluorescent in situ hybridization, we show that Klar β restrains oskar ribonucleoprotein motility and decreases the posterior-ward translocation of oskar mRNA, thereby adapting the rate of oskar delivery to the output of the anchoring machinery. This negative regulatory effect of Klar is particularly important for overriding temperature-induced changes in motility. We conclude that by preventing defects in oskar anchoring, this mechanism contributes to the developmental robustness of a poikilothermic organism living in a variable temperature environment.

Abstract:

X-ray measurement equipment is designed which utilizes a pair of photodiode detectors. The equipment is designed which utilizes a pair of photodiode detectors units which receive X-rays through filters with different attenuation coefficients for X-rays. The photodiode detector units preferably includes two pairs of photodiode detectors arranged symmetrically in four quadrants with the diodes in each detector unit in diagonally opposite quadrants. The outputs of the detector units are passed to variable gain amplifiers, gains of which are adjusted to bring the output voltages within a desired range, and the outputs of the amplifiers are integrated by integrators. After a selected period of time, the integration is stopped and the output voltages of the integrators are held and transmitted to an analog-to-digital converter. The ratio of the two output signals from a pair of photodiode detectors represents the kVp value of the X-ray machine and another pair of photodiode detectors used to measure the relative current in milliamps (mA) and exposure time of the x-ray unit.In this study, the equipment have been made for measuring the characteristics of X-Ray with an accuracy of kVp (kV), I (mA) is 5% and the 2% T.

Abstract:

We present a low-power CMOS active-resistance-capacitance (active-RC) complex bandpass filter (BPF) with tunable gain, bandwidth, center frequency, quality factor, and passband flatness for Bluetooth applications. A transfer function analysis for a cross-coupled Tow-Thomas biquad structure is presented to prove that the flatness profile of the passband gain can be effectively controlled by independently tuning two cross-coupling resistors. The proposed biquad-based complex BPF was employed to realize a fourth-order baseband analog processor for a low intermediate frequency (low-IF) RF receiver. The baseband analog processor was composed of two complex biquad filters and three first-order variable-gain amplifiers. It was fabricated in a 65-nm RF CMOS and achieved wide tuning capabilities, such as a gain of −15.6 to 50.6 dB, a bandwidth of 1.4–3.9 MHz, a center frequency of 1.5–4.1 MHz, and a passband flatness of −1 to 1 dB. It also achieved an image rejection ratio of 40.3–53.3 dB across the entire gain tuning range. It consumed 1.4 mA from a 1 V supply and occupied an area of 0.19 mm2 on the silicon substrate. The implementation results prove that the proposed complex BPF was able to effectively enhance the signal processing performances through the flexible and wide-range tunability of the passband flatness, as well as that of the gain, bandwidth, center frequency, and quality factor.

Abstract:

We present an X-band bi-directional transmit/receive module (TRM) for a phased array system utilized in radar-based sensor systems. The proposed module, comprising a 6-bit phase shifter, a 6-bit digital step attenuator, and bi-directional gain amplifiers, is fabricated using 65-nm CMOS technology. By constructing passive networks in the phase-shifter and the variable attenuator, the implemented TRM provides amplitude and phase control with 360° phase coverage and 5.625° as the minimum step size while the attenuation range varies from 0 to 31.5 dB with a step size of 0.5 dB. The fabricated T/R module in all of the phase shift states had RMS phase errors of less than 4° and an RMS amplitude error of less than 0.93 dB at 9–11 GHz. The output 1dB gain compression point (OP1dB) of the chip was 5.13 dBm at 10 GHz. The circuit occupies 3.92 × 2.44 mm2 of the chip area and consumes 170 mW of DC power.

Abstract:

Biological gain mechanisms regulate the sensitivity and dynamics of signaling pathways at the systemic, cellular, and molecular levels. In the sympathetic nervous system, gain in sensory-motor feedback loops is essential for homeostatic regulation of blood pressure and body temperature. This study shows how synaptic convergence and plasticity can interact to generate synaptic gain in autonomic ganglia and thereby enhance homeostatic control. Using a conductance-based computational model of an idealized sympathetic neuron, we simulated the postganglionic response to noisy patterns of presynaptic activity and found that a threefold amplification in postsynaptic spike output can arise in ganglia, depending on the number and strength of nicotinic synapses, the presynaptic firing rate, the extent of presynaptic facilitation, and the expression of muscarinic and peptidergic excitation. The simulations also showed that postsynaptic refractory periods serve to limit synaptic gain and alter postsynaptic spike timing. Synaptic gain was measured by stimulating dissociated bullfrog sympathetic neurons with 1–10 virtual synapses using a dynamic clamp. As in simulations, the threshold synaptic conductance for nicotinic excitation of firing was typically 10–15 nS, and synaptic gain increased with higher levels of nicotinic convergence. Unlike the model, gain in neurons sometimes declined during stimulation. This postsynaptic effect was partially blocked by 10 μM Cd2+, which inhibits voltage-dependent calcium currents. These results support a general model in which the circuit variations observed in parasympathetic and sympathetic ganglia, as well as other neural relays, can enable functional subsets of neurons to behave either as 1:1 relays, variable amplifiers, or switches.

Abstract:

In the practice by microwave power transistor amplifiers developing, the variable load method is usually used to determine the impedances of matching circuits in the complex conjugate matching mode. This solution involves the use of expensive equipment - coaxial impedance tuners and contact devices for mounting transistors in low impedance strip lines. An even more complicated and expensive way is the concept of X- parameters, based on the use of unique measuring equipment - a non-linear vector network analyzer, and a simulator for non-linear circuits design. The article proposes an alternative solution adapted to the operation of the transistor in real conditions and allowing to design the output stages of microwave power amplifiers using analysis and optimization of linear electrical circuits. The essence of the proposed solution is to automate the measurement of non-linear S-parameters of high-power microwave transistors in a contact device with tunable strip matching circuits for various DC supply voltage, frequency and input power mode in case of continuous or pulse input signal. The nonlinear S-parameters of the contact device are measured using the method of spatially remote variable load in the frequency range, in which the line conditioning and the maximum output power are achieved. The minimum of the reflected wave amplitude and the maximum gain are reached using movable strip matching transformers. The S-parameters measured in the coaxial line are automatically recalculated to the physical boundaries of the transistor by registering the positions of the input and output strip transformers.

Abstract:

Abstract Electroencephalography (EEG) is a sensitive and weak biosignal that varies from person to person. It is easily affected by noise and artifacts. Hence, maintaining the signal integrity to design an EEG acquisition system is crucial. This article proposes an analog design for acquiring EEG signals. The proposed design consists of eight blocks: (1) a radio-frequency interference filter and electro-static discharge protection, (2) a preamplifier and second-order high-pass filter with feedback topology and an unblocking mechanism, (3) a driven right leg circuit, (4) two-stage main and variable amplifiers, (5) an eight-order anti-aliasing filter, (6) a six-order 50-Hz notch filter (optional), (7) an opto-isolator circuit, and (8) an isolated power supply. The maximum gain of the design is approximately 94 dB, and its bandwidth ranges from approximately 0.18 to 120 Hz. The depth of the 50-Hz notch filter is −35 dB. Using this filter is optional because it causes EEG integrity problems in frequencies ranging from 40 to 60 Hz.
