Physical signals generated in the real world are transformed into electrical signals through sensors and fed into electronic circuits. The electrical signals input to electronic circuits are in analog form, thus they must be converted to digital signals using an ADC(Analog-Digital Converter) for digital processing. Signal processing circuits and ADCs that are to be integrated on a single chip together with silicon micro sensors should be designed to have less silicon area and less power consumption. This paper proposed a charge redistribution ADC which reduces silicon area considerably. The proposed method achieves 8 bit conversion by performing 4-bit conversion twice. It reduced the area of capacitor array, which takes most of the ADC area, by 1/16 when compared to a conventional method. Though it uses twice the number of clocks as a conventional method, it would be appropriate to be integrated with a silicon pressure sensor on a single chip since it does not demand high conversion rate.

In this paper, we propose and verify an implementation method for a single-chip 2048 complex point FFT/IFFT in terms of sequential data processing. For the sequential processing of 2048 complex data, buffers to store the input data are necessary. Therefore, DRAM-like pipelined commutator architecture is used as a buffer. The proposed structure brings about the 60% chip size reduction compared with conventional approach by using this design method. The 16-point FFT is a basic building block of the entire FFT chip, and the 2048-point FFT consists of the cascaded blocks with five stages of radix-4 and one stage of radix-2. Since each stage requires rounding of the resulting bits while maintaining the proper S/N ratio, the convergent block floating point (CBFP) algorithm is used for the effective internal bit rounding and their method contributed to a single chip design of digital audio broadcasting system.

This paper describes a monolithic Darlington-cascade amplifier (DCA) operating at X-band, realized with a 0.35-micron SiGe bipolar process, which provides 45 GHz $f_T$. A conventional cascade amplifier was also designed on the same process and tested to establish a reference. Compared to the reference cascade amplifier, the proposed monolithic amplifier circuit exhibits an improved gain of 2.5 dB and improved output power 1-dB compression point of 5.2 dB with 72% wider bandwidth. Measurement results show 19.5 dB gain, 11.2 dBm 1-dB compression power, and 3.1 GHz bandwidth. These results demonstrate that the Darlington-cascade cell is an advantageous substitute to the conventional cascade amplifier.

This paper presents a designing of a digital hearing aid processor (DHAP) chip being operated by a dedicated DSP core. The DHAP for hearing aid devices must be feasible within a size and power consumption required. Furthermore, it should be able to compensate for wide range of hearing losses and allow sufficient flexibility for the algorithm development. In this paper, a programmable 16-bit fixed-point DSP core is employed thor the designing of the DHAP. The designed DHAP performs a nonlinear loudness correction of 8 frequency bands based on audiometric measurements of impaired subjects. By employing a programmable DSP, the DHAP provides all the flexibility needed to implement audiological algorithms. In addition, the chip has low-power feature and $5, 500\times5000$$\mu$$m^2$ dimensions that fit for wearable hearing aids.

We developed W-band transceiver module using open MMIC chip such as receiver single chip and transmitting power amplifier. In order to calculate the noise figure and output power value, we analyzed the W-band transition loss from the antenna to MMIC connection and constructed the 12 channel receiver and the 5 channel transmitter. And compared with the results of the measurement. As a result, the output power of the transmitter was similar to the analytical results and the measured results at room temperature and environmental conditions. The noise figure of the receiver was also similar, but some channels showed error of about 3 dB due to manufacturing error.
