In view of the superiority of memristors in strengthening dynamical complexity and the significant application potiential of multiscroll chaos, this paper attempts to introduce two memristors with scalable memductances into simple seed chaotic system for designing multiscroll memristive chaotic system (MMCS). The designed MMCS yields hidden grid multiscroll chaotic attractors with any number of scrolls expanding along with the internal variables of memristors. By varying the parameters, the multiscroll attractors can be broken into coexisting attractors with different numbers and scrolls dependent on parameters, and their oscillation amplitudes can be increased (or decreased) without changing the chaotic features. Dynamical analysis and circuit implementation are given to reveal the complexity and feasibility of the MMCS. The fixed-time synchronization (FxTS) is studied by using adaptive controller and the sufficient condition for FxTS is established via Lyapunov stability theory (LST). A multilevel secure communication scheme based on the FxTS of MMCS is designed and the experimental tests on the image, audio and data secure communication verify its effectiveness, which to some extent shows the application availability of MMCS.

In order to accurately locate the open-circuit fault of power tube for three-phase PWM rectifier under the grid-voltage sensorless control strategy, an open-circuit fault diagnosis algorithm based on phase angle partitions of the current and voltage is proposed. To improve dynamic response for the system, predictive current control is implemented. The real-time change rate of the grid-current phase angle is utilized to determine whether a fault occurs. Based on the zero value platform in the grid-side distortion current generated by open-circuit faults, the corresponding phase angles for the grid current and the grid voltage are partitioned to locate the fault tubes. In a grid voltage sensorless control system, the grid voltage information obtained by the voltage observer and phase-locked loop can be susceptible to distortion or interference. To enhance the accuracy of phase-locked angle, a double generalized second-order integrator is used. The proposed open-circuit fault detection method can realize rapid diagnosis and location for single and double power tubes under grid-voltage sensorless predictive current control. Finally, experimental results are presented to verify the feasibility of the diagnosis method.

The in-memory computation (IMC) is a potential technique to improve the speed and energy efficiency of data-intensive designs. However, the scalability of IMC to large systems is hindered by the non-linearities of analog multiply-and-accumulate (MAC) operations and process variation, which impacts the precision of high bit-width MAC operations. In this paper, we present an IMC architecture that is capable of performing multi-bit MAC operations with improved speed, linearity, and computational accuracy. To improve the speed/linearity of the IMC-MAC operations, the image and weight data are applied by using the pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) and thermometric techniques, respectively. Although the PAM technique improves the speed of the IMC-MAC operations, it has linearity issues that need to be addressed. Based on the detailed linearity analysis of the IMC-MAC circuit, we proposed two approaches to improve the linearity and the signal margin (SM) of the IMC architecture. The proposed configurable current steering thermometric digital-to-analog converter (CST-DAC) array is employed to provide the PAM signals with various dynamic ranges and non-linear gaps that are required to improve the linearity/SM. The proposed combined PAM and thermometric IMC (PT-IMC) architecture is designed and fabricated in the TSMC 180-nm CMOS process. The post-silicon calibration of the design point mitigates the process-variation issues and provides the maximum SM (close to the simulation results). Furthermore, the proposed PT-IMC architecture performs MNIST/CIFAR-10 data set classification with an accuracy of 98%/88%. In addition, the PT-IMC architecture achieves a peak throughput of 12.41 GOPS, a normalized energy efficiency of 30.64 TOPS/W, a normalized figure-of-merit (FOM) of 3039, a loss in the SM of 8.3% with respect to the ideal SM, and a computational error of 0.41%.

This paper introduces a time-to-voltage converter-based maximum power point tracking (TVCB-MPPT) for harvesting photovoltaic energy into a super-capacitor using a single solar cell. In the proposed design, a time-to-voltage converter is used to achieve a fast and accurate tracking of the maximum power point (MPP) without using a time-averaging/time-integrating function as used in the conventional time-based MPPT design. Moreover, with the continuous monitoring of the MPP, the proposed converter responds immediately and maximizes the extracted energy under varying irradiance conditions as compared to the conventional intermittent MPPT topologies. The addition of the cold-start operation and the over-voltage protection increase the robustness and energy-autonomy of the overall system. The proposed TVCB-MPPT converter is fabricated in a 180 nm CMOS process. In the measured result, a fast online MPP tracking time of $440~mu $
