  • Design techniques for low power high speed successive approximation analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Lin, Jiaming
    Abstract:
    This dissertation presents two high-speed pipeline successive approximation analog-to-digital converters (SAR ADCs). Capacitive DACs and resistive DACs are utilized in these two pipeline SAR ADCs, respectively. The pipeline SAR ADC with capacitive DACs can save 50% switching power compared with other time-interleaved SAR ADCs since the total capacitance of the...

  • Field-Free Precessional Magnetization Switching by Focused Surface Acoustic Waves

    Creator:
    Lin, Han-Ting
    Abstract:
    In this research, the possibility of the precessional magnetization switching by focused surface acoustic waves, without external magnetic field, has been demonstrated. The technique of generating an effective magnetic field by applying stress to a magnetostrictive material via a surface acoustic wave is applied to perform field-free magnetization switching. It...

  • Fast algorithms and applications for multi-dimensional least-squares-based minimum variance spectral estimation

    Creator:
    Wei, Lin
    Abstract:
    The main contributions of this thesis are the development and application of four computationally efficient solutions for least-squares-based (LS-based) minimum variance spectral estimation (MVSE). They are: (1) fast computational solution for the 1-D covariance LS-based MVSE, (2) fast computational solution for the 1-D modified covariance LS-based MVSE, (3) fast computational...

  • Two dimensional numerical simulation of a non-isothermal GaAs MESFET

    Creator:
    Lin, Angela A.
    Abstract:
    The low thermal conductivity of gallium arsenide compared to silicon results in self-heating effects in GaAs MESFETs that limit the electrical performance of such devices for high power applications. To date, analytical thermal models of self heating in GaAs MESFETs are based on the assumption of a uniformly heated channel....

  • Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) Process Development of Nb-doped TiO₂ as a Transparent Conducting Oxide (TCO) and ALD of HfO₂/Nb₂O₅ Bilayers as Insulating Barriers for Metal/Insulator/Insulator/Metal (MIIM) Diodes

    Creator:
    Lin, Shijia
    Abstract:
    Transparent conductive oxides (TCOs), primarily indium doped tin oxide, have been widely used in numerous fields since decades ago, such as solar cells, displays, OLEDs and ‘smart windows’ etc. Owing to the scarcity of indium, there is a great demand for new alternative materials. Metal/insulator/metal (MIM) diodes are a critical...

  • Multi-bit delta-sigma switched-capacitor DACs employing element-mismatch-shaping

    Creator:
    Lin, Haiqing
    Abstract:
    Delta-sigma modulators are currently a very popular technique for making high-resolution analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters (ADCs and DACs). Most delta-sigma modulators in production today employ single-bit quantization because a 1-bit DAC is inherently linear, whereas a multi-bit DAC is not. Were it not for this drawback, the use of multi-bit...

  • Multiple-output combinational network minimization

    Creator:
    Lin, Pʻei-chen
    Abstract:
    An important step in the design of digital networks lies in the derivation of the switching formulas which describe the combinational logic networks in the system. In most large systems the number of gates and the number of connections are major factors that affect the cost of the system. An...

  • Power efficient H.264 video decoding in embedded multiprocessor

    Creator:
    Kim, Jihong
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents a novel methodology that enables power efficient video decoding in an embedded system based on MPSoC (Multiprocessor System on Chip). This methodology is a physical combination of parallel processing which reduces power consumption of processors by exploiting thread-level parallelism and Dynamic Voltage Frequency Scaling (DVFS) that allows...

  • Dynamic Methods to Improve Streaming of H.264 HD Video Over 802.11 Wireless Networks

    Creator:
    Sinky, Mohammed H.
    Abstract:
    Wireless High Definition Video Transmission (WHDVT) over 802.11-based networks enjoys widespread deployment among today's multimedia solutions. Examples include Intel® Wireless Display and Apple Airplay®, to name a few. In these systems, peer-to-peer networks are established over which H.264-encoded video is transported wirelessly to be decoded and played back at the...
