This paper describes novel scheme of a gray scale capacitive fingerprint image for high-accuracy capacitive sensor chip. The typical gray scale image scheme used a DAC of big size layout or charge-pump circuit of non-volatile memory with high power consumption and complexity by a global clock signal. A modified capacitive detection circuit of charge sharing scheme is proposed, which uses DLC(down literal circuit) based on a neuron MOS(vMOS) and analog simple multiplexor. The detection circuit is designed and simulated in 3.3V, $0.35{\mu}m$ standard CMOS process. Because the proposed circuit does not need a comparator and peripheral circuits, a pixel layout size can be reduced and the image resolution can be improved.

A modified capacitive detection circuit of charge sharing scheme is proposed, which reduces the static power dissipation and increases the voltage difference between a ridge and valley more than a conventional circuit. The detection circuit is designed and simulated in 3.3V, $0.35{\mu}m$ standard CMOS process, 40MHz condition. The result shows about 47% power dissipation reduction and 90% improvement of difference between a ridge and valley sensing voltage. The proposed circuit is layout without area increasing of a one pixel.

A novel sensing system for standing and moving human body using PIR(pyroelectric infrared) sensor was development. The system consists of power supply, interface circuit of PIR sensor, small stepping motor, and digital control. The detecting principle for stop human body is detecting the human body when the stepping motor sticking the PIR sensor and the fresnel lens has rotated by 180 degree at six second and has stopped the motor for no detecting signal of human body. We developed control algorism for proposed the detection system. The experimentation shows that the detector system had detected length and angle were 6m and 30 degree against as standing and moving human body with $37^{\circ}C$.

A sense amplifier is an essential peripheral circuit for designing a memory and is used to sense a small differential input signal and amplify it into digital signal. In this paper, a high-speed sense amplifier applicable to in-memory computing circuits is proposed. The proposed circuit reduces sense delay time through transistor Mtail that provides an additional discharge path and improves the circuit performance of the sense amplifier by applying m-GDI (: modified Gate Diffusion Input). Compared with previous structure, the sense delay time was reduced by 16.82%, the PDP(: Power Delay Product) by 17.23%, the EDP(: Energy Delay Product) by 31.1%. The proposed circuit was implemented using TSMC's 65nm CMOS process, while its feasibility was verified through SPECTRE simulation in this study.

In this paper, we propose an FDI(fault detection and isolation) method using neural network-based multi-fault models to detect and isolate faults in nonlinear systems. When a change in the system occurs, the errors between the system output and the neural network nominal system output cross a threshold, and once a fault in the system is detected, the fault classifier statistically isolates the fault by using the error between each neural network-based fault model output and the system output. From the computer simulation results, it is verified that the proposed fault diagonal method can be performed successfully to detect and isolate faults in a nonlinear system.

본 연구는 전하 결합 영양소자에서 감지회로의 특성을 향상시키기 위하여 N형 MOSFET과 Polysilcon 저항에 의한 전압 분배 회로를 가진 감지회로를 설계하였다. 감지회 로에 흐르는 전류는 전압분배회로를 N형 MOSFET으로 설계하였을때가 Polysilicon 저항으 로 설계한 경우보다 감도 특성도 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 이는 전압분배회로를 Polysilicon으 로 설계한 경우보다 N형 MOSFET으로 설계하였을 때 동작 주파수가 높을수록 전압이득 특성이 우수하기 때문이다. 감지회로에 흐르는 전류는 전압분배회로를 N형 MOSFET으로 설계하였을 때 2mA 정도를 나타내고 polysilcon으로 설계하였을 때 4mAwjd도로 나타났다.

This paper propose a new built-in current sensor(BICS) for current testing that has some advantages compared with conventional logic testing. The designed BICS detects the fault in circuit under test (CUT) and makes a Pass/Fail signal by comparison between CUT current and duplicated inverter current. The proposed circuit consists of a differential amplifier, a comparator and a inverter. It requires 10 MOSFETs and 3 inverters. Since the designed BICS do not require the extra clock, the added extra pin is only one output pin. The mode selection is not used in this circuit. Therefore we can apply the circuit to on-line testing. The validity and effectiveness are verified through the HSPICE simulation of circuits with defects. When CUT is a 8$\times$8 parallel multiplier, area overhead of the BICS is about 4.34%.

절연 게이트 바이폴라 트랜지스터 (Insuialed atc Bipolar Transistor : IGBT)는 높은 전류구동 능력과 높은 입력 임피던스 특성으로 인해 대전력 스위칭 소자로 널리 응용되고 있다. 특히, 대용량 모터 구동을 위해 응용되는 경우, 모터의 부하 특성상, 모터의 단락에 의한 단락 회로 (Short-circuit fault) 현상을 비롯한 클램핑 다이오드의 파손으로 인한 unclamped 유도성 부하 스위칭 (UIS) 상황에서 견딜 수 있도록 설계되어야 한다. 이를 위해, 이전 연구를 통해 Floating p-well을 600V급 IGBT에 도입함으로써 UIS 상황에서 IGBT가 견딜 수 있는 에너지(항복 에너지)륵 증가시키고 Floating p-weil 전압을 감지함으로써 단락 회로 상황에서 IGBT가 보호될 수 있도록 보호회로를 제안하고 검증하였다. 그러나 이 보호회로는 수평형 금속 산화막 반도체 전계 효과 트랜지스터 (Latcral MOSFET)로 제작됨으로써 보호회로 기능을 수행하기 위해서는 넓은 면적을 요구하였다. 또한, 정상적인 동작 상황에서 오류를 감지 (오류 감지: False detection)하는 동작으로 인해 추가적인 filter를 요구함으로써 보호회로 동작 속도를 감소시켰다. 이러한 단점을 해결하기 위해, 수평형 절연 게이트 바이폴라 트랜지스터 (Lateral IGBT : LIGBT)를 보호회로에 적용함으로써 LIGBT의 높은 전류 구동능력을 이용하여 기존 보호회로 면적의 30% 수준의 보호회로를 구현하였다. 또한, 구현된 보호회로는 오류 감지 현상을 제거함으로써 보호회로의 동작 속도를 개선하였다. 제안된 보호회로와 1200V급 IGBT는 7장의 마스크를 이용한 표준 수평형 IGBT 공정을 이용하여 제작되었으며, 특히, 전자빔 조사를 이하여 턴오프 속도를 개선함으로써 고속 스위칭에 적합하도록 최적화 되었다.

There are problems to research the aquatic ecosystems. One is that an observer must be stationed in the specified environment and the other is that his subjective analysis causes incorrect results. In this paper, we proposed the model to evaluate and manage resources. It is based on the simulation of data acquisition and hydrodynamic model in the aquatic ecosystems. We used the artificial neural network to detect the collision between fluids. In the experiment result, the proposed model if very effective and accurate in the detection of collision.

This paper presents a built-in current sensor(BICS) that detects defects in CMOS integrated circuits using the current testing technique. This circuit employs a cross-coupled connected PMOS transistors, it is used as a current comparator. The proposed circuit has a negligible impact on the performance of the circuit under test (CUT) and high speed detection time. In addition, in the operation of the normal mode, the BlCS does not have dissipation of extra power, and it can be applied to the deep submicron process. The validity and effectiveness are verified through the HSPICE simulation on circuits with defects. The area overhead of a BlCS versus the entire chip is about 9.2%. The chip was fabricated with Hynix $0.35{\mu}m$ 2-poly 4-metal N-well CMOS standard technology.
