  • Failure analysis of Muller-C-element

    Creator:
    Chew, Oonpin
    Abstract:
    Asynchronous circuits have recently been a breakthrough in many high performance computers. The concept of asynchronous circuits which started a long time ago has slowly grasped the attention of many designers. The Muller-C-element is an important control block in many asynchronous designs and therefore it is important to understand some...

  • An n-sheet, state-space ACTFEL device model

    Creator:
    Hitt, John C.
    Abstract:
    The objective of the research presented in this thesis is to develop, implement, and demonstrate the utility of an n-sheet, state-space alternating-current thin-film electroluminescent (ACTFEL) device model. In this model, the phosphor layer is discretized into n + 1 layers, with band-to-band impact ionization, space charge creation/ annihilation, and luminescent...

  • Oversampling digital-to-analog converters

    Creator:
    Shu, Shaofeng
    Abstract:
    Oversampling and noise-shaping methods for digital-to-analog (D/A) conversion have been widely accepted as methods of choice in high performance data conversion applications. In this thesis, the fundamentals of D/A conversion and oversampling D/A conversion were discussed, along with the detailed analysis and comparison of the reported state-of-the-art oversampling D/A converters....

  • Novel switched-capacitor circuits for delta-sigma modulators

    Creator:
    Yesilyurt, Ayse Gul
    Abstract:
    Oversampled delta-sigma modulation is one of the widely used A/D conversion techniques for narrow bandwidth signals. In this study several new lowpass and bandpass delta-sigma modulator architectures as well as novel pseudo-N-path integrators that can be used in implementing these architectures are proposed. By using multiplexing techniques the new lowpass...

  • A P-well GaAs MESFET technology

    Creator:
    Canfield, Philip C.
    Abstract:
    The semiconductor gallium arsenide (GaAs) has many potential advantages over the more widely used semiconductor silicon (Si). These include higher low field mobility, semi-insulating substrates, a direct band-gap, and greater radiation hardness. All these advantages offer distinct opportunities for implementation of new circuit functions or extension of the operating conditions...

  • Linearity enhancement techniques for data converters

    Creator:
    Cao, Jinzhou
    Abstract:
    Data converters are essential interface circuits between the analog world that people live in and the digital processors that people live with. Linearity, which often is a tradeoff against other performance criteria, is one of the major performance demands from applications for both analog-to-digital converts (ADC) and digital-to-analog converters (DAC)....

  • Zinc tin oxide thin-film transistor circuits

    Creator:
    Heineck, Daniel Philip
    Abstract:
    The primary objective of this thesis is to develop a process for fabricating integrated circuits based on thin-film transistors (TFTs) using zinc tin oxide (ZTO) as the channel layer. ZTO, in contrast to indium- or gallium-based amorphous oxide semiconductors (AOS), is perceived to be a more commercially viable AOS choice...
