High performance multi-cell delta-sigma modulators are a preferred choice in applications which require programmability. Multi-cell delta-sigma modulators with M unit cells provide 10log10(M) SQNR improvement for the same thermal noise and bias power due to the uncorrelated quantization noises of the M unit ADCs. This concept is used in this...
The effects of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation on photosynthesis and
various partial reactions involving the individual photoreactions of
photosynthesis were examined. These reactions included photo-reduction in adapted green algae, Hill reaction, cyclic photophosphorylation,
the 520 nm absorbance change and variable-yield fluorescence.
The reactions were measured in spinach chloroplasts and
isolated chloroplasts...
Two types of boundary element models are developed for the interaction of waves with trenches. The first type is for a two-dimensional domain in the horizontal plane and employs the linear long wave approximations. It is shown that appropriate selection of pit geometries leads to a significant reduction in wave...
