The dynamic power supply is a hybrid parallel structure that a switching class D amplifier supplies most of the required current and a linear operational Transconductance amplifier covers high bandwidth requirements and also eliminates output ripples of the switching amplifier. The Efficiency of the envelope modulator for 20 MHz LTE signal with 6 dB PAPR at 24 dBm output power is 68%.

By using ultrasound tomography, we can be obtained cross-sectional images from inside a tube that contains two-phase fluid. By processing these images, the flow of each phase can be calculated separately. Time of flight ultrasonic tomography was used in the proposed method and does not be used conventional methods for image reconstruction. The flow rate of each phase is obtained directly from the sensitivity matrix. The proposed method is independent of flow pattern identification and then there is no need to calibration and as a result, the system is stable. One MHz piezoelectric was used to implement the proposed method and 16 piezoelectric was mounted to implement for a fan-shaped ring, also a four-channel AFE board with a sampling speed of 105 MHz and a 14-bit resolution was used. All control signals are generated by FPGA and there is no need for a microprocessor to control the process. A very simple power amplifier is used to drive the piezoelectric which has low power consumption and contributes to the stability of the system. The simulation results of the measured values show a low error of the SIE factor.","PeriodicalId":299499,"journal":{"name":"2021 Iranian International Conference on Microelectronics (IICM)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133524811","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, mesoporous PSCs are fabricated in uncontrolled environment. The UV light stability of the PSC is enhanced by adding a photoactive phase change material (PCM) into the perovskite. The PCM undergoes trans to cis isomerization under UV light irradiation. Then, the cis form absorbs the heat produced in the solar cell and converts it into its trans isomer in a reversible process. By this approach, the destructive effect of UV light and heat is prohibited, leading to the enhancement of PSC durability by more than 138 % compared to devices without PCM. It should be noted that there is no significant difference in the PCE of both solar cells.","PeriodicalId":299499,"journal":{"name":"2021 Iranian International Conference on Microelectronics (IICM)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128988661","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}

The feedback network assesses the input signal activity and regulates the sampling rate continuously to prevent excessive sampling, especially for the fast-moving portions of the input signal. While the evaluation process is performed by a charge pump, another multi-level comparator and switching network are responsible for applying the results. Therefore, the quantization window is dynamically configured according to the signal activity. As a result, designing the other building blocks of the proposed LC-ADC is relaxed regarding the speed and power requirements leading to higher power efficiency. Implemented in a 0.18 μm standard CMOS process, the proposed LC-ADC occupies ~0.0041 mm2 of silicon area and consumes ~18 nW from 1 V supply voltage.
