  • Adaptive model reference control of highly maneuverable high performance aircraft

    Creator:
    Collins, David C. (David Charles), 1969-
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents an adaptive model reference controller for a highly maneuverable high performance aircraft, in particular, a modified F18. An adaptive controller is developed to maneuver an aircraft at a high angle of attack. Thus, the aircraft is required to fly over a highly nonlinear flight regime. The adaptive...

  • Design and computer aided optimization of a fully integrated CMOS RF distributed amplifier

    Creator:
    Ballweber, Brian M.
    Abstract:
    Advancements in the sophistication and complexity of modern electronic systems are creating a need for highly integrated systems with ever higher operational frequencies. The economical demands of these systems dictate that they be implemented using low cost fabrication technologies, such as digital CMOS. One of the major challenges facing circuit...

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • A universal CMOS current-mode operational amplifier

    Creator:
    Botelho, Cindy
    Abstract:
    It has become customary in electrical engineering to think of signal processing in terms of voltage variables to the exclusion of current variables. This tendency has resulted in voltage signal processing circuits such as voltage-controlled voltage sources (VCVS) and voltage-mode operational amplifiers. However, the VCVS operational amplifier has several limitations...

  • A chopper-stablized CMOS operational amplifier

    Creator:
    Ann, Seung-Han
    Abstract:
    The chopper-stabilized operational amplifier has good low frequency noise properties. Unfortunately a simple technique for simulation of the chopper-stabilized operational amplifier has not been available. This thesis describes the implementation of a differential amplifier using chopper stabilization and its circuit modeling for the SPICE simulation. This circuit has been designed...

  • CMOS low noise amplifier design utilizing monolithic transformers

    Creator:
    Zhou, Jianjun J.
    Abstract:
    Full integration of CMOS low noise amplifiers (LNA) presents a challenge for low cost CMOS receiver systems. A critical problem faced in the design of an RF CMOS LNA is the inaccurate high-frequency noise model of the MOSFET implemented in circuit simulators such as SPICE. Silicon-based monolithic inductors are another...

  • Current mode analog and digital circuit design

    Creator:
    Liang, Guojin
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, two important current mode circuit design subjects have been explored. In the first part, the switched-current circuit technique has been investigated. The fundamental performance and limitations of this technique are explored. One of the major limitations, the signal distortion caused by clock feedthrough has been substantially reduced...

  • A study of the temperature dependence of the DC current-voltage characteristics of AlGaAs/GaAs heterojunction bipolar transistors with application to bandgap voltage reference sources

    Creator:
    Gazeley, William G.
    Abstract:
    The bandgap voltage reference technique, as implemented in Silicon technology, has evolved to a state of advanced development and become the method of choice for temperature independent voltage biasing in integrated circuits. The heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT), fabricated from epitaxial A1GaAs /GaAs, is developing to a point where basic circuit...
