This brief presents a compact, single-stage hybrid power filter for AC/DC or DC/DC converters that simultaneously suppresses DM and CM noise currents through a passive current cancellation method. By integrating both DM and CM filtering functions into a single filter topology, the proposed design reduces the number of magnetic windings and simplifies construction compared to conventional multi-stage filters. Composed entirely of passive components, it avoids the complexity that active circuits usually entail, offering a reliable and efficient solution for industrial applications.

The nonlinear and time-varying characteristics of internal electronic circuits in battery systems pose challenges to the practical application of traditional state-of-charge (SOC) estimation methods. To address these challenges, we first propose a novel variational inference neural network (VINN), which combines deep neural networks with variational inference to enable accurate SOC estimation solely based on measured current, voltage, and temperature. Specifically, the proposed VINN employs an encoder to infer a latent SOC distribution from measurement inputs, and a decoder is used to reconstruct the inputs for computing the evidence lower bound (ELBO), which guides the network optimization. Meanwhile, a physics-informed loss is introduced by using Coulomb counting to derive the prior of SOC, ensuring consistency with the battery’s circuit behavior. Finally, experiments on realistic Panasonic 18650PF dataset demonstrate that VINN achieves superior estimation accuracy and generalization performance under both supervised and unsupervised settings compared to state-of-the-art methods.

This brief addresses the finite-time annular domain (FTAD) $H_{2}/H_{infty }$ filtering problem for linear stochastic Markovian jump systems (SMJSs) subject to Brownian motion and Poisson noise. By adopting the mode-dependent parameter approach and leveraging the reverse differential Gronwall inequality and the Itô-Levy formula, novel sufficient conditions ensuring the existence of such $H_{2}/H_{infty }$ filter are established. This condition is much less conservative, thus greatly extending the scope of solutions. Additionally, an algorithm is designed to determine the parameter ranges and show the relationship between $H_{2}$ and $H_{infty }$ performance metrics. Finally, a PWM-driven circuit is used to demonstrate the practicality of the proposed approach.

This work presents a new backoff efficiency enhancement technique for switched-capacitor power amplifiers (SCPA) that employs dynamic core size resizing enabled by a high-impedance (Hi-Z) control state. The SCPA unit cells’ size is the dynamically adjusted according to the instantaneous output power, which broadens the backoff efficiency peaking across a larger power backoff range and extend the saturated output power. The Hi-Z logic is designed so that disconnected capacitors do not remain floating. This is essential for ensuring correct capacitance ratios and impedance matching, and preventing distortion and reliability concerns due to voltage stresses and kickback effects. This concept was implemented in a voltage-mode Doherty SCPA prototype fabricated in 65 nm CMOS. The chip delivers 32% peak system efficiency (SE) at 25 dBm output power around 2.5 GHz and a 3 dB operational bandwidth of 1.7−2.8 GHz. Compared to a Class-B PA, SE improves by $1.3times $ and $1.83times $ at 3 dB and 7 dB backoff, respectively. It also achieves an error vector magnitude (EVM) of −37 dB at 14 dBm average output power for a 20 MHz OFDM Wi-Fi signal using piecewise digital predistortion.

For an inductive power transfer (IPT) system, stable power transfer is one of the most crucial abilities, but coupling variations can dramatically affect the system’s output. This brief proposes a reconfigurable detuned S-LCC compensated IPT system with two discrete frequencies to mitigate power fluctuations due to coupling variations. The original detuned S-LCC topology can operate in one stable region. With the change of the primary capacitor and frequency, the equivalent ac load can be altered, which will create a new stable region. Therefore, the expected coupling range of the detuned S-LCC topology can be extended. First, a detuned S-LCC IPT system with two discrete frequencies is presented, followed by an analysis of the working modes. Then, a detailed parameter design process and switching control are introduced. Finally, a 140-W prototype was constructed to verify the validity of the proposed method. The experimental results demonstrate that the output power fluctuation of the proposed IPT system is less than 5% and the lowest efficiency can be improved from 91.5%% to 94%, with the coupling coefficient varying from 0.27 to 0.63. The proposed method does not need complicated control or dedicated coil design, and it can implement stable power transfer significantly.

Envelope detectors in automatic gain control systems must achieve both low tracking latency and low output ripple for feedback stability. Conventional non-sampled envelope detectors intrinsically trade off latency and ripple. Maxima-sampling envelope detectors (MSEDs), which demodulate by sampling signal peaks, circumvent this latency-ripple trade-off, enabling control loops that remain stable over several frequency decades. However, MSED nonlinearity causes an intricate, previously uncharacterized interplay between input spectral properties and performance. This work analytically derives and numerically verifies input-dependent performance bounds for MSEDs. By formulating practical “rules-of-thumb” for mixed-signal circuit designers, we pave the way for the broader adoption of MSEDs.

The timestep-based inference process of spiking neural networks (SNNs) presents two challenges for neuromorphic chip design: 1) additional storage overhead for membrane potentials, and 2) significant power consumption resulting from repeated access to computational data. To address this challenge, this work proposes a timestep-parallel 4D neuromorphic computing array of size $N_{T}times N_{Z}times N_{X}times N_{Y}$ , simultaneously enabling parallel computing in temporal and spatial dimensions. The $N_{T}$ dimension supports timestep-parallel computing, the $N_{Z}$ dimension supports neuron-parallel computing, and the $N_{X}$ and $N_{Y}$ dimensions are used for synapse-parallel computing. The architecture facilitates flexible data reuse across different dimensions (with weights reuse along different timesteps and spikes reuse along different neurons), significantly reducing storage access. Meanwhile, it treats the membrane potential as a short-term computational variable that can be stored in a small buffer, thereby eliminating large-scale membrane potential storage overhead and access. The reduction in data access and storage costs is beneficial for lowering system power consumption and enhancing synaptic energy efficiency. Ultimately, the architecture is evaluated using a 28 nm process library and demonstrates a high computing power density of 1160 GSOP/s/mm2 and a high synaptic energy efficiency of 0.36 pJ/SOP, surpassing related state-of-the-art works. This work significantly reduces the hardware cost of neuromorphic computing and is expected to enhance the competitiveness of neuromorphic hardware in contemporary artificial intelligence applications.

Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) loudspeakers represent a promising solution to meet the growing demand for compact, portable consumer audio devices with integrated sound reproduction capabilities. In this context, the availability of accurate and computationally efficient Lumped-Element Models (LEMs) can greatly accelerate MEMS loudspeaker design and support the development of digital signal processing techniques aimed at enhancing audio performance. In this work, we propose a framework based on Automatic Differentiation (AD) to optimize the parameters of differentiable LEMs in a fully data-driven manner using standard gradient-based optimization methods. Specifically, we focus on tuning the parameters of an ad hoc linear equivalent circuit model for a commercially available MEMS loudspeaker intended for free-field applications.
