    Creator:
    Thota, Narayana Bhagirath
    Abstract:
    Deep Learning methods have been gaining a lot of significance for various Biomedical applications for diagnosing several types of diseases. Two applications considered here are: 1) Diabetic Retinopathy Detection and 2) ECG signal Classification (or Arrhythmia Detection). Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a major cause of blindness in Diabetic patients, and...

  • A Fully Integrated Bio-potential Low-noise Amplifier Utilizing Capacitor Multipliers

    Creator:
    Yong, OnnLim
    Abstract:
    In any biomedical signal acquisition system, a front-end amplifier is needed to amplify low amplitude bio-signals while filtering out any unwanted low-frequency artifacts. The design of low frequency poles within the sub-Hz range implies very large time-constants which goes against system integrability. In recent years, the pseudo resistor has been...

  • Model and design of cmos phase-locked loop

    Creator:
    Shum, Daniel K.
    Abstract:
    This thesis will examine the model and design technique of a self-contained analog CMOS Phase-Locked Loop. This system has an adaptable filter and demodulator for an oscillating frequency of up to 1000 KHz and it is programmable by means of an external resistor and capacitor. The first topic to be...

  • Design of high-speed adaptive parallel multi-level decision feedback equalizer

    Creator:
    Xiang, Yihai
    Abstract:
    Multi-level decision feedback equalization (MDFE) is an effective technique to remove inter-symbol interference (ISI) from disk readback signals, which uses the simple architecture of decision feedback equalization. Parallelism which doubles the symbol rate can be realized by setting the first tap of the feedback filter to zero. A mixed-signal implementation...

  • Current-feedthrough cancellation technique for current-mode T/H circuits

    Creator:
    Young, David Y. W.
    Abstract:
    In this paper, an analysis of the clock-feedthrough effects in switched-current (SI)' circuits will be presented. The clock-feedthrough effects caused by the non-ideal characteristic of MOS switches when they are turned off limit the accuracy of the analog track-and-hold (T/H) circuits. A model to analyze and characterize this effect is...

  • A time-multiplexed switched-capacitor circuit for neural network applications

    Creator:
    Hansen, James Edward, 1962-
    Abstract:
    Analog computation in the form of neural networks is currently receiving much attention. Existing algorithms cannot be easily implemented in hardware because of the large number of neurons needed and the number of connections necessary between them. These problems have motivated development of alternatives to a conventional implementation. Hence, a...

  • A delta-sigma pulse width modulator with pulse dithering

    Creator:
    Lewison, Richard S.
    Abstract:
    Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) has been used extensively for motor control, DC-AC converters, DC-DC converters and in audio applications. The conventional method of generating a pulse width modulated signal involves generating an accurate sawtooth or triangle wave using analog circuits. In CMOS, being analog circuit intensive puts extra constraints on...
