Objective : Psychopathy has been suggested as one of the important cause of violence in patients with schizophrenia. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the personality disorder in criminal schizophrenia. Methods : A total of 187 criminal schizophrenia participated in this study. All participants filled out the Korean Inventory of Interpersonal Problem Personality Disorder Scales (K-IIP-PD), Psychopathic Personality Inventory-Revised (PPI-R), Personality Assessment Inventory (PAI). Using the correlations between the scales, we investigated whether K-IIP-PD could be used to evaluate personality disorder in criminal schizophrenia. Moreover, participants were divided into two groups of psychopathic and nonpsychopathic schizophrenics, and scores of K-IIP-PD were compared between the two subgroups. Results : The overall correlation between the scales was very high. In particular, sum of 3 item scores (interprsonal sensitivity+interpersonal ambivalence+aggression) and aggression of K-IIP-PD were highly correlated with PPI-R and PAI. Total score of personality disorder scale and subscales were higher in psychopathic schizophrenic group compared to nonpsychopathic schizophrenic group. Conclusion : The K-IIP-PD could be used to assess the antisocial and aggressive nature of criminal schizophrenia. Further studies in various clinical groups including the general population are required.

Linearity improvement technique of transconductor is presented in the paper. In order to certify the linearity improvement of proposed transconductor, the 3rd-order Elliptic low-pass Gm-C filter which provides 5MHz cutoff is implemented by using the transconductor. According to the IIP3 measurement result of filters, proposed filter has higher IIP3 than normal source-degeneration filter; the In-band IIP3 of proposed and normal filter are 10.1 dBm and 7.5 dBm respectively. The filter is fabricated in 1P6M $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS while consuming the 3.3mW with 1.8 Vdd. The in-band input-referred noise voltage is $62.3{\mu}Vrms$ and the SFDR is 54.1 dB.

In this work, we have designed Gilbert cell downconversion mixer using 0.25um Anam CMOS process, we also have analyzed Conversion gain and IIP3 using Taylor series in our own unique way. Especially, bulk terminal is used as LO( Local Oscillator) input for reduction of power consumption and supply voltage. Supply voltage used in this design is lower than 1.8V and core current is less than 500uA. The simulation experiments showed that the conversion gain, IIP3, and power consumption were -1dB, 4.46dBm, and 0.8mW, respectively.

Single-ended differential RF circuit topologies fully utilizing complementary characteristics of both NMOS and PMOS are proposed, which have inherent advantage of both single-ended and differential circuits. Using this concept, we propose a CCPP (Complementary CMOS parallel push-pull) amplifier which has single-ended input/output with differential amplifying characteristics, leading to more than 30 dB improvement on $IIP_2$. In addition, complementary resistive mixer is also proposed, which provides not only differential IF outputs from single-ended RF input, but much better linearity as well as isolation characteristics. Experimental results using $0.35{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS process show that, compared with conventional NMOS resistive mixer, the proposed mixer shows 15 dB better LO-to-IF isolation, 4.6 dB better $IIP_2$, and 4.5 dB better $IIP_3$performances.

In this paper, we present a fast and efficient Iterative Improvement Partitioning(IIP) technique for VLSI circuits and hybrid bucket structures on its implementation. The IIP algorithms are very widely used in VLSI circuit partition due to their time efficiency. As the performance of these algorithms depends on choices of moving cell, various methods have been proposed. Specially, Cluster-Removal algorithm by S. Dutt significantly improved partition quality. We indicate the weakness of previous algorithms wjere they used a uniform method for choice of cells during for choice of cells during the improvement. To solve the problem, we propose a new IIP technique that selects the method for choice of cells according to the improvement status and present hybrid bucket structures for easy implementation. The time complexity of proposed algorithm is the same with FM method and the experimental results on ACM/SIGDA benchmark circuits show improvment up to 33-44%, 45%-50% and 10-12% in cutsize over FM, LA-3 and CLIP respectively. Also with less CUP tiem, it outperforms Paraboli and MELO represented constructive-partition methods by about 12% and 24%, respectively.

This paper presents a quantitative analysis on the intermodulation product between transmitter W-CDMA leakage signal and receiver out of band blocker, and proposes design guide lines for overcoming the effect in receiver design. Our analysis shows that duplexer isolation, attenuation and LNA IIP3 are mainly responsible for the 3rd order intermodulation product. Analysis also shows that LNA IIP3 required for meeting 3GPP TS 34.121 specification is about 1 ㏈m with duplexer isolation of 50 ㏈ and duplexer attenuation of 24㏈.

본 논문에서는 무선 수신기용 down-conversion mixer에서 발생하는 2차 비선형과 DC-offset 문제를 향상시키는 방법을 제시하였다. 제안 된 회로에서는 간단한 수식적인 분석으로부터 2차 혼변조 왜곡 성분과 DC-offset 성분은 duty cycle 조절을 통하여 제거 될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 제안 된 방법을 가지고 $0.13{\mu}m$ RF CMOS 공정을 사용하여 출력 저항에 5%의 오차를 어 모의실험을 수행하여 보았다. 실험 결과 출력 저항에 5%의 오차를 주었을 때, IIP2(second-order input intercept point)와 DC-offset은 각각 2.04dBm와 22mV의 값을 가졌으나, 여기에서 제안된 방법을 통하여 IIP2는 38.8dBm로, DC-offset은 $777{\mu}V$로 각각 향상됨을 확인 할 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 RF 수신단에 적용할 수 있는 직접 변환 방식의 주파수 혼합기를 설계하였다. 직접 변환 방식의 주파수 혼합기는 기존의 헤테로다인 방식에 비해 고집적화가 가능하고 저전력 및 저가의 설계가 가능한 구조이다. 제안된 주파수 혼합기는 $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS 공정을 이용한 2.4GHz대에서 동작하는 RF CMOS 주파수 혼합기로써, HSPICE를 이용하여 시뮬레이션 하였고, 레이아웃은 멘토사의 IC Station을 이용하여 수행하였다. 기본 single-balanced Gilbert Cell의 출력단에 추가 변환을 수행하였고, 각 변환단의 전달 컨덕턴스 값을 조절하여 결과적으로 출력단에 나타나는 2차 혼변조 성분이 differential 출력에 의해 충분히 개선되도록 하였다. 3.3V의 공급전압으로 29dB의 높은 전압이득을 얻었고 3.5mA의 전류소모가 발생하였다. 2차 혼변조 성분을 줄이기 위한 구조적인 변화를 통해 63dBm의 IIP2 값을 얻었다.
