The design of mixed-signal integrated circuits has evolved from simple analog and digital circuits operating on the same silicon substrate to the point that now we have complete system on a chip solutions for communication systems. The levels of integration needed to remain cost effective in today's integrated circuit (IC)...
This thesis is the combination of two research publications working toward a unified strategy in which to represent complex engineered systems as complex networks. Current engineered system modeling techniques segment large complex models into multiple groups to be simulated independently. These methods restrict the evaluations of such complex systems as...
The primary objective of this study was to identify, and to
group, the professional education competencies common to administrators
of vocational education. The technique of factor analysis was
used to form logical groups of competencies. The secondary objectives
were to:
1. determine, by the method of the analysis of variance,...
The purpose of this research was to determine, if there are and the
nature of, the common professional education competencies of selected
community college vocational instructors. The respondents in the study
represented four instructors from each of 40 community colleges selected
from the four western states of California, Colorado, Oregon...
This document contains a summary of changes in administrations and actions taken by the commission, and reports of the status of sport fisheries for 1971, as well as an update for the status of various fisheries.
In this work a new voltage buffer, the drain-follower, achieves 300MHz band-width with 2pF load, a dc gain of 0.993V/V, 1mV offset voltage, -60 dB total harmonic distortion at 1.4Vpp output voltage and 6.5mW power dissipation from 5V supply. A unity-gain buffer switched-capacitor biquad filter has been implemented in 0.5μm...
Traditionally sinusoidal signal generation has been implemented with purely analog circuits such as phase-locked loops. The alternative of using a digital system to perform this signal generation has previously been unattractive due to limitations in clock frequency and size. However, recent advancements in sub-micron fabrication techniques have made the digital...
