Its resistance can also change gradually allowing the potential of mimicking neural chemical synapses.

A new method for representation of trees in memory, which takes advantages of widely available in commercial Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) built-in block RAM, is proposed. It is shown that N-ary trees can be coded in such a way that enables the required size of memory to be significantly reduced with practically the same performance as in the previously developed methods. Thus, larger trees can be stored and further handled in FPGAs with equal hardware resources. It is also shown that the trees can be processed using both iterative and recursive techniques. The latter is discussed in detail due to opportunities for more compact and clear specifications, and comparison is done with the previous results permitting very good performance to be achieved.","PeriodicalId":372346,"journal":{"name":"2013 25th International Conference on Microelectronics (ICM)","volume":"91 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131698683","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}

Interference from the shared 2.4GHz channel and fading due to multipath propagation and shadowing deteriorate the process of range estimation. In this work an estimation of these noise levels that are present in the environment is being carried out by anchor nodes which are placed throughout the sensing field. These anchor nodes will compare the actual distance between them with distance computed from the measured RSSI. Four different techniques have been devised that applies a smoothing coefficient on the measured RSSI taking into consideration information about the environment from the anchor nodes. Simulation shows that even when the error introduced is equivalent to 100% of the transmission range, the error in range estimation was around 25%.","PeriodicalId":372346,"journal":{"name":"2013 25th International Conference on Microelectronics (ICM)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117253733","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 principle of functioning is based on monitoring the variation in capacitance signals owing to the adherence of target bacteria to the sensing interface. The system is designed using custom-based technology and it consists of comb finger capacitor structures made out of doped polysilicon. Aiming at improving the detection efficiency, the space between the comb fingers, forming the two electrodes of the capacitive sensor, will be made porous through a post-processing with Xenon Difluoride (XeF2) dry etching technique. This allows entrapping bacteria in between the electrodes thus increasing the variation of capacitance. This latter, is acquired using a Charge Based Capacitance Measurement (CBCM) sensory circuit built with to the 0.13 μm CMOS technology. The circuit is able to detect a difference in capacitance as low as 0.75 fF.","PeriodicalId":372346,"journal":{"name":"2013 25th International Conference on Microelectronics (ICM)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122318144","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 proposed front-end has low-input referred noise and high-common mode rejection ratio (CMRR) compared to Instrumentation Amplifier features, and its rail-to-rail topology allows electrode offset rejection. The logarithmic amplification block is composed of three cascaded true logarithmic amplification stages. Also, a chopper stabilization technique is used to improve the noise figure. This front-end interface is followed by an analog to digital convertor, and in order to prevent EEG signal distortion, the magnitude of the later signal is controlled by implementing new programming gain approach. Post-layout simulation in 0.18 μm CMOS technology demonstrates a High CMRR of 284 dB @50/60 Hz, an input referred noise of ~0.5 mVrs on 100 Hz BW and an input common mode ranges from 0.6 to 1.12 V for 1.8 V supply.

However, surface contamination due to the presence of organic residues and non-optimized silicon nitride properties (SiNx), and deposits by plasma- enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), lead to higher parasitic loss. In this research work, a cleaning process by using sodium hypo chlorate (NaOCl) and potassium hydroxide (KOH) is introduced before the anisotropic texturization by sodium/potassium hydroxide (NaOH/KOH) and Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) solutions. The surface morphology, reflectance factor (RF) are investigated and compared. Furthermore, SiNx layer properties have been optimized and the effect of process parameters on shunt resistance (RSH) has been analyzed. A batch of 156 mm pseudo square (PSQ) mc-Si solar cells are fabricated with the optimized process where electrical properties are analyzed and compared with the standard one. RSH, fill factor (FF) and efficiency are found to be higher by 40%, 1.6% (absolute) and 0.37% (absolute) respectively for the optimized process.","PeriodicalId":372346,"journal":{"name":"2013 25th International Conference on Microelectronics (ICM)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124989450","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}
