A 20 GHz 2-stage MMIC (Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits) LNA(Low Noise Amplifiers) has been designed. The pHEMT with gate length of 1.15 um has been used to provide ultra low noise and high gain amplification. Series and Shunt feedback circuits were interted to ensured high stability over frequency range of DC to 60 GHz. The size of designed MMIC LNA is 2285um x 2000um(4.57mm2). The simulated noise figure of MMIC LNA is less than 1.7 dB over frequency range of 20 GHz to 21 GHz.

A new fully differential sample-and-hold circuit which can effectively compensate the offset voltage of an operational amplifier and the charge injection of a MOS switch is presented. The proposed circuit shows a true sample-and-hold function without a reset period or an input-track period. The prototype fabricated using a 1.2$\mu$m double-polysilicon CMOS process occupies an area of 550$\mu$m$\times$288$\mu$m and the error of the sampled ouput is 0.056% on average for 3V input at DC.

This paper describes the sinusoidal, pulse, triangular oscillator using second generation current conveyor. To obtain the sinusoidal waveform the circuit blocks are constructed by using all pass filter and integrator. The pulse and the triangular waveforms are obtained from the output of sinusoidal oscillator. The peak-to-peak voltages of sinusoidal and triangular waveforms can be easily controlled by the dc offset voltage. Also the output frequency of the oscillator can be controlled by varying passive elements. The designed circuit is verified by HSPICE simulation.

An operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) based precision full-wave rectifier circuit is presented in this article. The proposed circuit has a very sharp corner in the DC transfer characteristic and simple configuration comprised three OTAs and one current mirror. The temperature dependence of the OTA transconductance is reduced. Experimental results demonstrating the characteristic of the circuit are included.

This paper describes two kind of new concept for low power consumption for small area TFT-LCDs. First, the proposed analog buffer could reduce the static current by adopting new scheme. Second, new data driver structure reduced DC power consumption by reducing the number of operational amplifier (op-amp). As simulation results of Hspice, the quiescent current of proposed analog buffer is less than $0.8{\mu}A$ and the DC power consumption is reduced about $40{\sim}50%$ compared with conventional ones.

In this paper, we propose an efficient bias circuit for hearing aid using discrete BJT. The collector feedback bias circuit, widely used for the hearing aid, has a resister for negative feedback. As the resistor affects AC and DC simultaneously, it is quite difficult to adjust amplifier gain without changing DC bias point. The previous bias circuit also has weak point to be oscillated by the positive feedback of power noise if gain of hearing aid is high. In the proposed circuit, we can reduce the two weak points of the previous circuit by adding a resistor which is ${\beta}$ times larger than collector resistor between base of BJT and power supply.

This paper presents a two-paralleled 4 quadrant DC chopper type PWM power conversion circuit in order to generate a gradient magnetic field in the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) system. This power amplifier is connected in parallel with the conventional 4-quadrant DC chopper using IGBTs at their inputs/outputs to realize further high-power density, high speed current tracking control, and to get a low switching ripple amplitude in a controlled current in the Gradient Coils (GCs). Moreover, the power conversion circuit has to realize quick rise/fall response characteristics in proportion to various target currents in GCs. It is proposed in this paper that a unique control scheme can achieve the above objective. DSP-based control systems realize a high control facility and accuracy. It is proved that the new control system will greatly enlarge the diagnostic target and improve the image quality of MRI.

VSS controller is suited for systems where the robust performances in the presence of parameter variations and disturbances are most important. The practical realization of such robust VSS algorithm using DSP ($TMS_{32020}$) is dicussed in this paper. PWH-like control signal which is produced by directly using VSS control algorithm substitutes the PWM amplifier. And the armature current is used in construction of switching function for the purpose of increasing switching frequency. In order to compensate steady state error produced by various external disturbances practical integral compensator is considered.

Superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) is a sensitive detector of magnetic flux signals. Up to now, the main application of SQUIDs has been measurements of magnetic flux signals in the frequency range from near DC to several MHz. Recently, cryogenic low-noise radio-frequency (RF) amplifiers based on DC SQUID are under development aiming to detect RF signals with sensitivity approaching quantum limit. In this paper, we review the recent progress of cryogenic low-noise RF amplifiers based on SQUID technology.
