This paper describes the development of a three-phase line-interactive DVR with a new sag detection algorithm. The developed detection algorithm has a hybrid structure composed of an instantaneous detector and RMS-variation detectors. The source voltage passes through the sliding-window DFT and RMS calculator, and the instantaneous sag detector. If an instantaneous sag is detected, the RMS variation detector-1 is selected to calculate the RMS variation. The RMS variation detector-2 is selected when the instantaneous sag occurs under the operation of the RMS variation detector-1. The feasibility of the proposed algorithm is verified through computer simulations and experimental work with a prototype of a line-interactive DVR with a 3kVA rating. The line-interactive DVR with the proposed algorithm can compensate for an input voltage sag or an interruption within a 2ms delay. The developed DVR can effectively compensate for a voltage sag or interruption in sensitive loads, such as computers, communications equipment, and automation equipment.

A multiphase clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit having a novel rotational bang-bang phase detector (RBBPD) is demonstrated. The proposed 1/4-rate RBBPD decides the locking point using a single clock phase among sequentially rotating 4 clock phases. With this, our RBBPD has significantly reduced power consumption and chip area. A prototype 10-Gb/s 1/4-rate CDR with RBBPD is successfully realized in 65-nm CMOS technology. The CDR consumes 5.5 mW from 1-V supply and the clock signal recovered from $2^{31}-1$ PRBS input data has 0.011-UI rms jitter.

An all-digital delay-locked loop (DLL) for a mobile memory interface, which runs at 0.11-2.5 GHz with a phase-shift capability of $180^{\circ}$, has two internal DLLs: a global DLL which uses a time-to-digital converter to assist fast locking, and shuts down after locking to save power; and a local DLL which uses a phase detector with an adaptive phase sampling window (WPD) to reduce jitter accumulation. The WPD in the local DLL adjusts the width of its sampling window adaptively to control the loop bandwidth, thus reducing jitter induced by UP/DN dithering, input clock jitter, and supply/ground noise. Implemented in a 65 nm CMOS process, the DLL operates over 0.11-2.5 GHz. It locks within 6 clock cycles at 0.11 GHz, and within 17 clock cycles at 2.5 GHz. At 2.5 GHz, the integrated jitter is $954fs_{rms}$, and the long-term jitter is $2.33ps_{rms}/23.10ps_{pp}$. The ratio of the RMS jitter at the output to that at the input is about 1.17 at 2.5 GHz, when the sampling window of the WPD is being adjusted adaptively. The DLL consumes 1.77 mW/GHz and occupies $0.075mm^2$.

본 논문에서는 높은 대역폭과 넓은 동적 영역을 갖는 DVB-S2를 위한 새로운 디지털 이득 제어 시스템을 제안하였다. DVB-S2 시스템의 PAPR은 매우 크며, 요구되는 정착 시간은 매우 작기 때문에 일반적인 폐-루프 아날로그 이득 제어 방식은 사용할 수 없다. 정확한 이득 제어와 기저 대역 모뎀과의 직접적인 인터페이스를 위해서 디지털 이득 제어가 필요하다. 또한 아날로그 이득 제어 방식에 비해 정착 시간과 공정, 전압, 온도 값의 변화에 둔감한 이점을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 세밀한 해상도와 넓은 이득 영역을 갖기 위해서 AGC 시스템 및 구성회로를 제안하였다. 이 시스템은 높은 대역폭의 디지털 VGA와 넓은 파워 범위를 가진 RMS 검출기, 저 전력의 SAR 타입 ADC, 그리고 디지털 이득 제어기로 구성되어 있다. 파워 소모와 칩면적을 줄이기 위해 한 개의 SAR 타입 ADC를 사용했으며, ADC 입력은 4개의 파워 검출기를 사용하여 시간 축 상에서 인터리빙 방식으로 구현하였다. 모의실험 및 측정 결과는 제안하는 AGC 시스템의 이득 에러가 $10{\mu}s$ 내에서, 0.25 dB보다 낮은 것을 보여주고 있다. 전체 칩은 $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS 공정을 사용하여 설계하였다. 제안된 IF AGC 시스템의 측정 결과는 0.25 dB의 해상도와 80 dB의 이득 범위, 8 nV/$\sqrt{Hz}$의 입력 기준 잡음, $IIP_3$는 5 dBm, 전력 소모는 60 mW임을 보여주고 있다. 파워검출기는 100 MHz 입력에서 35 dB의 동적 영역을 갖는다.

COLSS는 정상 운전시 DNBR 및 LHR의 운전 제한 조건을 감시하는 디지탈 노심감시계통이다. 영광 3, 4호기 COLSS는 현재 노내 계측기 신호를 입력으로 하여 5차의 Fourier 합성법에 의해 노심의 축방향 출력분포를 계산한다. 그러나 5차의 Fourier 합성법은 특정의 축방향 출력 형태, 특히 말안장 모양의 출력분포에 대해서 그 정확성이 떨어져 노심의 운전 여유도를 감소시키는 요인이 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 축방향 출력분포 계산의 정확성을 증대 시키기 위해 COLSS에 Cubic Spline합성법을 적용하였다. 그 결과, Fourier합성법을 적용한 기존의 COLSS보다 RMS오차의 관점에서 최고 5%까지 그 정확도가 향상되었다.

This paper presents a clock and data recovery circuit that supports dual data rates of 5.4 Gbps and 3.24 Gbps for DisplayPort v1.2 sink device. A quarter-rate linear phase detector (PD) is used in order to mitigate high speed circuit design effort. The proposed linear PD results in better jitter performance by increasing up and down pulse widths of the PD and removes dead-zone problem of charge pump circuit. A voltage-controlled oscillator is designed with a 'Mode' switching control for frequency selection. The measured RMS jitter of recovered clock signal is 2.92 ps, and the peak-to-peak jitter is 24.89 ps under $2^{31}-1$ bit-long pseudo-random bit sequence at the bitrate of 5.4 Gbps. The chip area is 1.0 mm${\times}$1.3 mm, and the power consumption is 117 mW from a 1.8 V supply using 0.18 ${\mu}m$ CMOS process.

This study introduces an efficient readout circuit designed for two-electrode electrocardiogram (ECG) recording, characterized by its low-noise and low-power consumption attributes. Unlike its three-electrode counterpart, the two-electrode ECG is susceptible to common-mode interference (CMI), causing signal distortion. To counter this, the proposed circuit integrates a common-mode charge pump (CMCP) with a window comparator, allowing for a CMI tolerance of up to 20 V_PP. The CMCP design prevents the activation of electrostatic discharge (ESD) diodes and becomes operational only when CMI surpasses the predetermined range set by the window comparator. This ensures power efficiency and minimizes intermodulation distortion (IMD) arising from switching noise. To maintain ECG signal accuracy, the circuit employs a chopper-stabilized instrumentation amplifier (IA) for low-noise attributes, and to achieve high input impedance, it incorporates a floating high-pass filter (HPF) and a current-feedback instrumentation amplifier (CFIA). This comprehensive design integrates various components, including a QRS peak detector and serial peripheral interface (SPI), into a single 0.18-㎛ CMOS chip occupying 0.54 mm². Experimental evaluations showed a 0.59 µV_RMS noise level within a 1-100 Hz bandwidth and a power draw of 23.83 µW at 1.8 V.

We have carried out measurements of 1.2-1.6GHz radio interferences around Seoul Radio Astronomy Observatory located in the campus of Seoul National University. We received interference signals using a pyramidal horn antenna and measured its power using a spectrum analyzer with 1MHz resolution after $\~60dB$ amplification. In order to check the spatial characteristics, we made observations at every $30^{\circ}$ in azimuth at elevation of $30^{\circ}\;and\;60^{\circ}$. Also, in order to check the temporal characteristics, we repeated the all-sky observations five times at every six hours. The results may be summarized as follows: (1) There are strong $({\geq}-20dBm)$ interferences between 1.2 and 1.4GHz. Particularly strong interferences are observed at 1.271 and 1.281GHz, which have maximum powers of -0.34dBm and -0.56dBm, respectively. (2) The characteristics of the interferences do not depend strongly on directions, although the interferences are in general weak at high elevation and in east-west direction. (3) The interferences appear for a very short $(\leq0.01s)$ period of time, so that the average power is much smaller than the maximum power. Strong interferences with large $(\leq-49.0dBm)$ average power have been observed at 1.271, 1.281, 1.339, and 1.576GHz. At these frequencies, the interferences appear repeatedly with a period of $\leq0.1s$ By analyzing the observed power, we find that, for the strongest 1.271GHz interference, the average intensity is $-171dBW/m^2/Hz$ and that the maximum intensity is $-122dBW/m^2/Hz$. If this interference is delivered to the detector without any shielding, then its power would be much greater than the rms noise of a typical line spectrum. Therefore, it is important to shield all the parts of receiver carefully from radio interferences. Also, without appropriate shielding, the sensitivity of a receiver could be limited by the interference.
