This paper proposes a 401MHz-406MHz low noise amplifier for MedRadio applications. The proposed low noise amplifier adopts a common gate amplifier topology using current reuse gm-boosting technique. The proposed low noise amplifier shows better performance of voltage gain and noise figure than the conventional gm-boosted common gate amplifier in the same power consumption. The proposed current-reuse gm-boosted low noise amplifier achieves a voltage gain of 22 dB, a noise figure of 2.95 dB, and IIP3 of -17 dBm while consuming $170{\mu}W$ from a 0.5 V supply voltage in $0.13{\mu}m$ CMOS process.

We design a CMOS front-end with wide variable gain and low power consumption for 5.25 GHz band. To obtain wide variable gain range, a p-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (PMOS FET) in the low noise amplifier (LNA) section is connected in parallel. For a mixer, single balanced and folded structure is employed for low power consumption. Using this structure, the bias currents of the transconductance and switching stages in the mixer can be separated without using current bleeding path. The proposed front-end has a maximum gain of 33.2 dB with a variable gain range of 17 dB. The noise figure and third-order input intercept point (IIP3) are 4.8 dB and -8.5 dBm, respectively. For this operation, the proposed front-end consumes 7.1 mW at high gain mode, and 2.6 mW at low gain mode. The simulation results are performed using Cadence RF spectre with the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) $0.18\;{\mu}m$ CMOS technology.)

In general, there are various types of boost converters such as Boost converters, Buck-Boost converters, Flyback converters, Push-Pull converters, etc. Among them, Boost converters are the most widely used and step up converters in a very simple form. However, Boost converter has DCM mode operation, big ripple problem and RHPZ problem. In order to solve these problems, a converter to which the new topology was applied was presented, but among them, the KY converter improved the Boost converter's DCM mode operation, the big ripple problem and the RHPZ problem. However, the conventional KY converter has a drawback that the voltage gain is relatively lower than that of the Boost converter. Therefore, in this paper, we proposed a new KY converter that solves the problem of low voltage gain while having the advantages of the conventional KY converter.

A novel low-power wideband bipolar second-generation current conveyors(CCIIs) and its application to universal instrumentation amplifier(UIA) were proposed. The CCII for accuracy voltage or current transfer characteristics and low current input impedance adopted adaptive current bias circuit into conventional class Ab CCII. The UIA consists of only two CCIIs and four resistors. Three instrumentation function of the UIA can be realized by selection of input signals and resistors. The simulation results show that the CCII has input impedance of 2.0$\Omega$ and the voltage gain of 60㏈ for frequency range from 0 to 50KHz when used as a voltage amplifier. The CCII has also good characteristics of current follower for current range from -100㎃ to ＋100㎃. The simulation results show that the UIA has three instrumentation amplifier functions without resistor matching. The UIA has the voltage gain of 40㏈ for frequency range from 0 to 100KHz when used as a fully-differential instrumentation amplifier. The power dissipations of the CCII and the UIA are 0.75㎽ and 1.5㎽ at supply voltage of $\pm$2.5V, respectively.

We analyze the effects of CO poisoning and air bleeding on the performance of a PEM (polymer electrolyte membrane) fuel cell stack fabricated using commercial MEA (membrane electrode assembly). Dynamic response data from the experiments on the performance of a stack are identified by obtaining steady-state gains and time-constants of the first-order system model expressed as a first-order differential equation. It is found that the cell voltage of the stack decreases by 1.3-1.6 mV as the CO concentration rises by 1 ppm. The time elapsed to reach a new steady state after a change in the CO concentration is shortened as the magnitude of the change in the CO concentration increases. In general, the steady-state gain becomes bigger and the time-constant gets smaller with increasing the air concentration (air-bleeding level) in the reformate gas to restore the cell voltage. However, it is possible to recover 87%-96% of the original cell voltages, which are measured with free of CO, within 1-30 min by introducing the bleed air as much as 1% of the reformate gas into the stack.

This paper presents a VHF/UHF-band variable gain low noise amplifier for multi-standard mobile TV tuners. A proposed VHF-band variable gain amplifier is composed of a resistive shunt-feedback low noise amplifier to remove external matching components, a single-to-differential amplifier with input PMOS transcoductors to improve low frequency noise performance, a variable shunt-feedback resistor and an attenuator to control variable gain range. A proposed UHF-band variable gain amplifier consists of a narrowband low noise amplifier with capacitive tuning to improve noise performance and interference rejection performance, a single-to-differential with gm gain control and an attenuator to adjust gain control range. The proposed VHF-band and UHF-band variable gain amplifier were designed in a $0.18{\mu}m$ RF CMOS technology and draws 22 mA and 17 mA from a 1.8 V supply voltage, respectively. The designed VHF-band and UHF-band variable gain amplifier show a voltage gain of 27 dB and 27 dB, a noise figure of 1.6-1.7 dB and 1.3-1.7 dB, OIP3 of 13.5 dBm and 16 dBm, respectively.
