In this paper, a novel torque control scheme is proposed and implemented to handle the torque level of ebike precisely. By adopting moving average filters to eliminate throttle noise, ebike driver could control throttle level on wide span of 256 steps. Designed controller is plugged into ebike and tested to demonstrate it's linear control incomparable to conventional cadence sensing controller.

This paper introduces a 2-dimensional touch screen panel driver based on an improved capacitive sensing circuit. The improved capacitive sensing circuit based on charge pump can eliminate the remaining charges of the intermediate nodes, which may cause output voltage drift. The touch screen panel driver with mixed-mode circuits was built and simulated using Cadence Spectre. Verilog-A models the digital circuits effectively and enables them to interface with analog circuits easily. From the simulation results, we can verify the reliable operations of the simple structured touch screen panel driver based on the improved capacitive sensing circuit offering no voltage drift.

In this paper, a high voltage current sensing circuit for boost converter is designed and verified by Cadence SPECTRE simulations. The current mirror pair, power and sensing metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) with size ratio of K, is used in our on-chip current sensing circuit. Very low drain voltages of the current mirror pair should be matched to give accurate current sensing, so a folded-cascode opamp with a PMOS input pair is used in our design. A high voltage high side lateral-diffused MOS transistor (LDMOST) switch is used between the current sensing circuit and power MOSFET to protect the current sensing circuit from the high output voltage. Simulation results using 0.35 ${\mu}m$ BCD process show that current sensing is accurate and the pulse frequency modulation (PFM) boost converter using the proposed current sensing circuit satisfies with the specifications.

In this paper, we present a rotating auto-zeroing offset cancellation technique, which can improve the performance of touch screen sensing circuits. Our target touch screen detection method employs multiple continuous sine waves to achieve a high speed for large touch screens. While conventional auto-zeroing schemes cannot handle such continuous signals properly, the proposed scheme does not suffer from switching noise and provides effective offset cancellation for continuous signals. Experimental results show that the proposed technique improves the signal-to-noise ratio by 14 dB compared to a conventional offset cancellation scheme. For the realistic simulation results, we used Cadence SPECTRE with an accurate TSP model and noise source. We also applied an asymmetric device size (10% MOS size mismatch) to the OP Amp design in order to measure the effectiveness of offset cancellation. We implemented the proposed circuit as part of a touch screen controller system-on-chip by using a Magnachip/SK Hynix 0.18-µm complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process.

This paper presents methods to achieve and control accurate output voltage. PSR removed secondary output voltage sensing circuit, therefore standby power loss can be decreased. When sensing the auxiliary winding voltage, sensing must be done at accurate branch which has $V_O$ information. For this reason this paper presents the PSR sensing technique using sawtooth wave and peak detector. Circuit verification carried out with Spectre in Cadence corporation and Manga/Hynix $0.35{\mu}m$ 700V process.

In this paper Low Drop-Out (LDO) regulator that improved load regulation characteristics due to the feedback detection structure. The proposed feedback sensing circuit is added between the output of the LDO's internal error amplifier and the input of the pass transistor to improve the regulation of the delta value coming into the output. It has a voltage value with improved load regulation characteristics than existing LDO regulator. The proposed LDO structure was analyzed in Samsung 0.13um process using Cadence's Virtuoso, Spectre simulator.

This paper presents a 24 channel capacitive touch sensing ASIC. This ASIC consists of analog circuit part and digital circuit part. Analog circuits convert user screen touch into electrical signal and digital circuits represent this signal change as digital data. Digital circuit also has an I2C interface for operation parameter reconfiguration from host machine. This interface guarantees the stable operation of the ASIC even against wide operation condition change. This chip is implemented with 0.18 um CMOS process. Its area is about 3 $mm^2$ and power consumption is 5.3mW. A number of EDA tools from Cadence and Synopsys are used for chip design.

This study was designed to understand gait pattern on the MBTI personality types by analyzing and figuring out specific charges, which includes analyzing gait parameter which was shown in walking movement. The personality types was measured by the standard MBTI(Myers- Briggs Type Indicator) test and gait analysis make used of GAITRite program. The objects of research were convenience sampled student of M College. Temporal and spatial parameters were calculated based on the MBTI personality types test using measured data, 68 items and SPSS pc/program was conducted to find out specific changes and obtainted the results as follows. There was not found significant in rate of swing phase and stance phase, step length, stride length, base of support, toe in/out between Extraversion group and Introversion group. But Extraversion group was significantly higher than Introversion group in velocity and cadence(p<.05). Sensing group was significantly more than iNtuiton group in cadence. There was not found significant in all parameter between Thinking group and Feeling group, Judging group and Perceiving group.

This paper introduces a touch screen panel driver using modified charge pump circuit. The touch screen panel driver is composed of an analog circuit part which senses a touch and a digital circuit which analyse the sensed signal. To verify the functions the touch screen panel driver, a mixed-mode circuit was built and simulated using Cadence Spectre. The digital circuits were modeled with Verilog-A in order to interface with the analog circuits and verify the functionalities of the driver with less simulation time. From the simulation results, we can verify the reliable operations of the simple structured touch screen panel driver which does not include an ADC.
