This paper describes the PLL of TCON(Timing Controller) chip for FPD(Flat Panel Display). The recent TCON requires wide range frequency operation of $8\sim135MHz$ in PLL. In order to be satisfied this requirement the new V-I converter.circuit. The V-I converter of new architecture increased the minimum/maximum current ratio which widens the operation frequency range of VCO's md also guaranteed linearity of VCO's. The proposed PLL circuits in FPD TCON show the measuring performance of loops RMS jitter in the range of $8\sim135MHz$. The designed circuit was fabricated in 1-ploy 3-metal 0.25um TSMC process technology and has a operation range or $8\sim135MHz$ with 2.5V power.

The dosimetric properties of Ge- and Er-doped optical fibres are studied. The Ge-doped fibre is found to be more sensitive to radiation and there is little fading of TL signal compared with Er-doped fibre. The Ge- and Er-doped fibres showed a linear response over a range of ${\sim}1\;Gy$ to about 120 Gy and ${\sim}1Gy$ to about 250Gy respectively. The Ge-doped fibre is found to be dose-rate independent both for photons and electron beams of energy ranging from 6 to 10 MeV and 6 to 12 MeV respectively. The fibre is energy independent for energy greater than ${\sim}0.1\;MeV$ for photon or 0.1 MeV for electron beam. From the depth-dose measurement, it was found that the position of maximum dose, dmax, increased with increasing energy ranging from ${\sim}2\;cm$ and ${\sim}2.5\;cm$ for 6 MeV and 10 MeV photons respectively. The central axis percentage depth dose at 10 cm depth was found to be in good agreement with the value obtained using ionization chamber.

Thin-film chromel-alumel multijunction thermal converters with a low output resistance of $64{\sim}85\;{\Omega}$ showed approximately the square law-dependent input-output relation. The voltage responsivities were very low with $0.34{\sim}0.67\;V/W$ in air and $1.15{\sim}1.48\;V/W$ in vacuum, respectively, and the ac-dc voltage transfer error was very large with about +340 ppm in the frequency range of $40\;Hz{\sim}10\;kHz$ in the case of 1 V-input sinewave rms voltage. It can be concluded that the large transfer error of the thermal converter was mainly caused by the low voltage responsivity and the large heat loss due to low output resistance, which implies that the optimization for small ac-dc transfer error is required.

The bitterness of brewers yeast slurry decreased by washing with mild caustic soda solution followed by washing with 0.85% (w/v) NaCl solution The higher concentration of caustic soda was, the lower the bitterness unit(BU) of washed yeast slurry was. The lethal rate of yeast cells increased. When the concentration of caustic soda solution increased from 0.05%(w/v) to 0.25%(w/v), the BU of brewers yeast slurry was decreased from 45 to 3, but yeast cells viability decreased from 93% to 0%. The optimum washing conditions of brewers yeast slurry were as follows: the concentration of caustic soda solution was $0.07{\sim}0.1%$(w/v) and the contact time of brewers yeast slurry with caustic soda was $10{\sim}20$ minutes. The similar washing effect was obtained when the brewers yeast slurry was washed with 20%(v/v) ethanol solution.

RISC-V is a free and open ISA enabling a new era of processor innovation through open standard collaboration. Born in academia and research, RISC-V ISA delivers a new level of free, extensible software and hardware freedom on architecture, paving the way for the next 50 years of computing design and innovation. In this paper, according to the emergence of RISC-V architecture, we describe the RISC-V processor instruction set constituted by arithmetic logic, memory, branch, control, status register, environment call and break point instructions. Using ModelSim and Quartus-II, 38 instructions of RISC-V has been successfully simulated and synthesized.

A highly accurate wide swing BiCMOS cascode current mirror is proposed. It uses the base-current compensated BJT current mirror. It increases both output impedance and output voltage range by using the npn-NMOS cascode instead of the NMOS-NMOS cascode. The npn transistor copies the input current and the NMOS transistor increases the output impedance for the accurate current mirroring. The proposed current mirror achieves highly constant current for wide output voltage range. Simulation results were verified with measurements performed on a fabricated chip using a 5/16V 0.5um BCD process. It has only $-2.5%{\sim}1.0%$ current error for $0.3V{\sim}16V$ output voltage range.

Vibrio vulnificus is a recentry recognized halophilic organism that may cause human infections. Patients infected with Vibrio vulnificus often have a history of exposure to the sea, suggesting that the organism may be common inhabitant of marine environment. In this studies 314 samples were collected from 9 sites of Chonnam coastal area, from April to Jun, 1993. Isolation rates of V. vulnificus were 7.1% in total samples, 33.3% in sea water, 55.5% in sediment, 1.7% in fish and shellfish, 6.3% in kitchen environment. In each areas of Chunnam V. vunificus were isolated from 3.6% to 11.4%. The isolation rates of V. vulnificus was correlated positively with organic matter and COD in sea warer and sediment. In sea water, Microorganism population were $4.5{\times}10^3{\sim}3.5{\times}10^5\;CFU/ml$, Vibrio strains were $1.8{\times}10^l4.6{\times}10^3\;CFU/ml$, Coliform bacteria were $1.9{\times}10^1{\times}3.7{\times}10^2\;CFU/100ml$. In sediment, Microorganism population were $4.8{\times}10^3{\sim}5.2{\times}10^5\;CFU/ml$. Vibrio strains were $1.9{\times}10^2{\sim}8.4{\times}10^4\;CFU/ml$, Coliform bacteria were $7.2{\times}10^1{\sim}9.9{\times}10^2\;CFU/100ml$.

This research measured the shielding rates of apron 0.25 and 0.5 mmPb for X-ray energy in diagnosis radiation system and gamma-ray energy of $^{99m}Tc$-MDP and $^{18}F$-FDG. X-ray energies were measured on effective energy of $26.2{\sim}45.6\;keV$ when additional filtering plate of 0, 2 mmAl is used within the range of tube voltage $40{\sim}120\;kVp$, and at this time, apron 0.5 mmPb has shown about 5.5% of increase in its shielding rate over 0.25 mmPb at the highest quality. Besides, the aprons of the two types have shown high shielding rate of over 90% for direct X-ray and spatial dose rate. And, in case 0.25 and 0.5 mmPb aprons were used at 140keV of $^{99m}Tc$-MDP, the shielding effects were between 30 and 53%, and at high energy of 511 keV, $^{18}F$-FDG, the shielding effects of apron, $1.3{\sim}3.6%$, were very small.

Planar multi-junction thermal converters were fabricated for precise measurements of the ac voltage and current by an ac-dc transfer method. A heater and a thermocouple array were fabricated onto a sandwiched membrane, $Si_{3}N_{4}$ (200 nm) / $SiO_{2}$ (400 nm) / $Si_{3}N_{4}$ (200 nm), a thickness of $0.8\;{\mu}m$ and a size of $2{\times}4\;mm^{2}$, which is supported by a surrounding frame. The NiCr heater is located at the center of the membrane vertically. Hot junctions of $48{\sim}156$ pairs of thermocouples (Cu-CuNi44) are located near or onto the heater, and cold junctions are located onto the silicon frame. Output of the thermal converters for 10 mA dc input was $76\;mV{\sim}382\;mV$ dependent on a model, and short term stability of the outputs was ${\pm}5{\sim}15\;ppm$/ 10 min with 5 mA dc input. Responsivity in air was in the range of $3.9{\sim}14.5V/W$. Responsivity of the model BF48 in air which has 48 thermocouples was 2 times or greater than that of 3 dimensional multi-junction thermal converter in vacuum which has 56 thermocouples. AC-DC transfer differences with an input of 10 mA or less were less than ${\pm}1\;ppm$ in the frequency range from 5 Hz to 2 kHz, and about $2{\sim}3\;ppm$ at 5 kHz and 10 kHz.

The study is a phenomenological analysis of the video simulation clinical practice experience recently conducted on nursing students due to the outbreak of corona 19 worldwide. A total of eight students participated in the vSim class who understood the purpose of the study and wanted to participate voluntarily. The data collection conducted a total of three interviews until no new data was available, and the collection period was from June 22, 2020 to July 10, 2020. The collected data were analyzed with the Giorgi's Phenomenological Analysis Method. As a result of the study, three components and 13 semantic units were derived. vSim was difficult for students, but it was an interesting experience that made them feel like nurses, and it was an experience in which they were immersed in learning rather than face-to-face classes, and their skills improved.
