SummaryNanopore ion channels are a promising solution for certain molecular structure analyses. Large arrays of nanopore channels and their associated readout circuits are used in many molecular studies such as DNA sequencing. Readout circuits must meet challenging performance criteria such as low noise operation, low power consumption, in‐channel digitization capability, and high linearity. Previously, sigma–delta modulators have been presented to address these criteria; however, their specifications show drifts with temperature. In this paper, an approach is presented to keep modulator performance constant with temperature variations. For this purpose, the sigma–delta modulator's feedforward and feedback branches are modified so that their gain coefficient remains constant over a certain temperature range. With large sensors arrays, solutions employing high bias currents in the feedback paths are not suitable due to power consumption limitations. Here, the design gives the possibility of switching low current levels in the feedback paths without affecting the ENOB. The proposed temperature compensation solution shows good performance when temperature is swept from 27°C to 100°C. Over the mentioned temperature range, the gain and bandwidth of the modulator show a change of less than 0.4%. It is further shown that for a 10 kHz input current signal with an amplitude of 600 pA, the ENOB and power consumption are 12.9 and 4.6 mW, respectively.

SummaryA novel, high voltage gain, non‐isolated, non‐coupled DC‐DC converter is proposed for applications such as PV systems, HEV, aerospace, and so forth. The proposed converter consists of two active switches in parallel, which are turned on and off simultaneously, two inductors in parallel and switched capacitors arrangements. During charging, both the inductor comes in parallel with voltage source and effectively reduces the ripple current and inductor size. These factors attribute to the lower power loss and low cost. The voltage stress of the switches is at least 5 times lower than the output voltage, which allows the use of low switches. The voltage stresses of the diodes are also at least 2.5 times lower than the output voltage, which enables to use low forward voltage drop diodes, and hence, the total power loss due to diode will be further reduced. Lower capacitors' stress also results in reduced parasitics. The detailed steady‐state analysis of the proposed converter and its comparison with the existing converters are presented. The efficiency of the proposed converter is highest. The hardware prototype of 325 W is implemented to boost the voltage by 18 times, and results are presented. The closed‐loop analysis of the proposed converter is also carried out. The maximum efficiency of the proposed converter is reported 96% for 100 W and 93% for 300 W.
摘要 针对光伏系统、混合动力汽车、航空航天等应用，提出了一种新型、高电压增益、非隔离、非耦合 DC-DC 转换器。拟议的转换器由两个并联的有源开关（同时打开和关闭）、两个并联的电感器和开关电容器组成。在充电过程中，两个电感器都与电压源并联，从而有效降低了纹波电流和电感器尺寸。这些因素都有助于降低功率损耗和成本。开关的电压应力至少比输出电压低 5 倍，因此可以使用低开关。二极管的电压应力也至少比输出电压低 2.5 倍，因此可以使用低正向压降二极管，从而进一步降低二极管造成的总功率损耗。较低的电容器应力也会减少寄生效应。本文详细介绍了拟议转换器的稳态分析及其与现有转换器的比较。建议的转换器效率最高。实现了 325 W 的硬件原型，将电压提升了 18 倍，并给出了结果。此外，还对拟议的转换器进行了闭环分析。据报告，100 W 和 300 W 转换器的最高效率分别为 96% 和 93%。

Dynamic vision sensor (DVS) imaging quality is significantly affected by pixel noise and temporal contrast (TC), which is inversely proportional to sensitivity. To reduce the noise event rate and improve sensitivity in bright‐light conditions in the DVS pixel circuit, this paper proposes improvements to the conventional DVS pixel circuit. The proposed DVS pixel circuit adopts stacked medium‐threshold transistors instead of a single high‐threshold transistor in the photoreceptor and introduces a threshold switching circuit. Compared with the conventional DVS pixel circuit, this design increases event threshold normalized by root mean square (RMS) noise voltage, reducing the dim‐light noise bandwidth. Additionally, it achieves higher sensitivity in bright‐light conditions compared with dim‐light conditions. The proposed DVS pixel circuit is implemented in a 110‐nm complementary metal‐oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process. Post‐simulation results show that, for photocurrents between 5 fA and 100 pA, the proposed DVS pixel circuit achieves a 35 Hz peak event rate at 15% TC, which is reduced to 3.1% of the conventional structure. For photocurrents exceeding 30 pA, the proposed structure can switch TC from 15% to 5%, maintaining a noise event rate below 0.1 Hz.

The paper explores the investigation of an inverse Class‐E amplifier featuring a series output filter across various switch‐off duty ratios D. Analysis of different duty ratios as a design parameter reveals their impact on peak switch voltage, output power capability, and maximum operating frequency. Notably, it is demonstrated that adjusting the D ratio affects these parameters, with specific emphasis on achieving a maximum normalized switch voltage lower than 2 and an output power capability exceeding 0.1 for D = 0.7. Furthermore, the paper considers both parasitic shunt capacitance and series inductor in the load network, a departure from previous works that solely focused on the series inductor. The proposed circuit is highlighted for its ease of implementation compared with conventional reactance compensation circuits employing parallel resonant circuits, which are challenging to form directly. An innovative approach is introduced to showcase the broadband performance of the inverse Class‐E amplifier. The measured drain efficiency and output power versus input power at 430 MHz are 82% and 45.3 dBm, respectively. A similar performance can be achieved within the frequency range of 380–600 MHz by proper tuning at saturated power. The measurement results demonstrate a maximum high power‐added efficiency (PAE) of 79% and drain efficiency of 82% within this frequency range, accompanied by a gain exceeding 12.0 dB and output power surpassing 44 dBm.
本文探讨了对具有串联输出滤波器的反向 E 类放大器在不同关断占空比 D 下的研究。将不同占空比作为设计参数进行分析，可以发现其对峰值开关电压、输出功率能力和最大工作频率的影响。值得注意的是，本文证明了调整 D 比对这些参数的影响，特别强调了在 D = 0.7 时实现低于 2 的最大归一化开关电压和超过 0.1 的输出功率能力。此外，本文还考虑了负载网络中的寄生并联电容和串联电感，这与之前仅关注串联电感的研究有所不同。与采用并联谐振电路的传统电抗补偿电路相比，本文提出的电路更易于实现，因为直接形成并联谐振电路具有挑战性。为展示反向 E 类放大器的宽带性能，介绍了一种创新方法。在 430 MHz 频率下，测得的漏极效率和输出功率与输入功率之比分别为 82% 和 45.3 dBm。通过在饱和功率下进行适当调谐，在 380-600 MHz 频率范围内也能实现类似的性能。测量结果表明，在这一频率范围内，功率附加效率（PAE）最高可达 79%，漏极效率最高可达 82%，增益超过 12.0 dB，输出功率超过 44 dBm。

A power tracking method based on improved variable‐step perturbation observation approach has been proposed in this paper. This method is aimed at addressing the detuning issues caused by capacitor parameter drift in MCR‐WPT systems based on S‐S compensation circuits. Compared with traditional tuning methods, the proposed method has fast response, high accuracy, low complexity, and less prone to over‐tracking. Firstly, a mathematical model of the system based on the detuning factor has been established. Secondly, the impact of different detuning conditions on the system at the initial resonant frequency has been studied. Thirdly, the response characteristics of the system to different frequencies under different detuning conditions have been studied. Fourthly, based on the above researches, an improved variable‐step perturbation observation method based on the single‐step power drop factor has been proposed.

The successful implementation of artificial intelligence algorithms depends on the capacity to execute numerous repeated operations, which, in turn, requires systems with high data throughput. Although emerging computing‐in‐memory (CIM) eliminates the need for frequent data transfer between the memory and processing blocks and enables parallel activation of multiple rows, the traditional structure, where each row has only one identical input value, significantly limits its further application. To solve this problem, this study proposes a dual‐SRAM CIM architecture in which two SRAM arrays are coupled such that all operands are different, thus rendering the use of CIM considerably more flexible. The proposed dual‐SRAM array was implemented through a 55‐nm process, essentially delivering a frequency of 361 MHz for a 1.2‐V supply and energy efficiency of 161 TOPS/W at 0.9 V supply.

To improve the torque control accuracy of an open‐winding permanent magnet synchronous motor with common DC bus, this paper studies a complex vector proportional–integral (CVPI) controller with the help of a proportional–integral (PI) controller to solve the problem of torque ripple caused by the current harmonics caused by the back electromotive force of the motor and the nonlinearity of the inverter. The controller has a higher gain at the center frequency and can realize the tracking of the alternating current (AC) quantity without static error. Therefore, it is used for the tracking control of current harmonics. According to the different characteristics of the dq0‐axis, complex j is realized by orthogonal characteristics and all‐pass filter in the dq‐axis and 0‐axis, respectively. At the same time, with the help of Ansys, Simplorer, and Matlab/Simulink tools, the co‐simulation platform for an open‐winding motor is established, and the motor parameters are optimized. The simulation and experimental results show that the control strategy based on CVPI has stronger harmonic suppression ability, smaller torque ripple, and better dynamic performance than proportional‐resonance (PR) control.

This paper introduces a resonant switched capacitor converter (RSCC) topology that enhances the operational efficiency by utilizing devices with reduced ratings. The RSCC eliminates bulky magnetic elements, yielding increased power density, modular structure, and compact size compared with switched inductor topologies. Significantly, all the switched capacitors in the proposed converter and approximately 50% of the switching power devices are explicitly rated for the input voltage enabling its use for high‐power applications. A compact inductor is utilized for resonant operation, and the switching frequency of the converter is significantly reduced leading to reduced switching losses and improved efficiency. Zero current turn‐ON and turn‐OFF of the switching devices is achieved. Elimination of load‐side bulky capacitor using inherent output voltage ripple reduction is achieved by aligning the switching phases of the converter such that individual capacitor voltage ripple gets cancelled out. The work extensively covers the analysis of the converter in steady‐state and the effect of non‐idealities during the resonant operation. Further, a detailed design of the topology with a discussion on component selection is presented. The operation of the proposed converter is systematically analyzed through a series of simulation results generated, and the converter is further validated by developing an experimental prototype at a power of 200 W with an efficiency of 95.83%.

The operation of the proposed converter is systematically analyzed through a series of simulation results generated, and the converter is further validated by developing an experimental prototype at a power of 200 W with an efficiency of 95.83%.","PeriodicalId":13874,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Circuit Theory and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141770006","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
