This becomes more difficult with increasing filter order. In this paper, we introduce a simplified tuning method which is obtained by a new structure consisting of a filter section of second- or third-order (Biquad or Bitriplet which is referred to as a ‘tuning block’), in cascade with a ladder-RLC filter (passive LC, or simulated-active RC). The cut-off frequency of the resulting filter can be simply tuned by adjusting one component of the tuning block. The new ladder tuning-block (LTB) is compared with two conventional structures, a cascade of Biquads and a single-ladder filter. Fine tuning these two structures is considerably more complicated. It is shown that beside the advantage of ease of tuning, the sensitivity to component tolerances of the new structure is lower than that of the two conventional ones, for the price of a slightly higher filter order.","PeriodicalId":126960,"journal":{"name":"2011 20th European Conference on Circuit Theory and Design (ECCTD)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132303006","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work we propose a routine, which exploits the MATLAB Optimization Toolbox in order to perform an optimum sizing of low frequency Gm-C integrators. The target is minimizing the integrator area, while satisfying design specifications such as unity gain frequency and dynamic range. Upper and lower bounds have been assigned to several design parameters to obtain solutions compatible with real processes. The interaction between noise and low frequency specifications has been investigated and their impact on the area occupation has been shown. The accuracy of the routine, configured with the parameters of a commercial process, has been shown using electrical simulations.","PeriodicalId":126960,"journal":{"name":"2011 20th European Conference on Circuit Theory and Design (ECCTD)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133056689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since the maximum of two Gaussian random variables is not Gaussian, various techniques for representing a non-Gaussian distribution have been proposed. Among them, the Gaussian mixture model is distinguished from the others in that it can handle various correlations, non-Gaussian distributions, and slew distributions easily, which are important in S-STA. In this paper, we propose a new statistical maximum operation for Gaussian mixture models, which takes the cumulative distribution function curve into account, and show some experimental results to evaluate its performance.","PeriodicalId":126960,"journal":{"name":"2011 20th European Conference on Circuit Theory and Design (ECCTD)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116313638","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A single recording amplifier consumes only 25 µW from 1.8 V supply and occupies 0.13 mm2 of the silicon area. Its main parameters such as the low/high cut off frequencies and the voltage gain are controlled thanks to the on-chip register. User is able to change the low cut off frequency in the 60 mHz – 100 Hz range in each channel independently while the high cut off frequency and the voltage gain can be set to 4.7 kHz / 12 kHz and 139 V/V / 1100 V/V respectively. The input referred noise depends on the bandwidth of the recording channel and is equal to 3.7 µV (100 Hz – 12 kHz) or to 7.6 µV (3 Hz – 12 kHz). This paper deals with problems that are present in a multichannel integrated recording electronics for neurobiology experiments such as: ability to record input signals in the frequency range below a single Hz, and the spread of the cut off frequencies from channel to channel in such systems. Up to our knowledge the solution presented in this paper is the first one reporting the multichannel IC that is able both to record extremely low frequency signals in each channel with a small spread of this parameter from channel to channel.","PeriodicalId":126960,"journal":{"name":"2011 20th European Conference on Circuit Theory and Design (ECCTD)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134507988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Amplification of high frequency components of 10 Gb/s and 12.5 Gb/s transmitted signals over two kinds of NELCO channels using active inductors in the transmitter side, improves SNDR in the receiver side by 3 dB, as compared to the case with no inductor peaking, for the same power consumption.
