A current intensity convertible CLD chip was fabricated using small and large FET cell configuration. Pinch-off current of 8.82 mA and 11.56 mA were obtained for small and large cell in the CLD chip, respectively. Constant current was fairly maintained until the breakdown voltage of 60 V. Measured knee voltage, $V_k$ were 3.8 V and 4.5 V for small and large cell, respectively. We configured current amplifying chip with parallel connection of each cells, by connecting 8 individual large cells in parallel network, 92.0 mA of current was obtained. The pinch-off constant current of CLD chip was varied very linearly with respect to the number of parallel connected cell.

Recently, semiconductor integration density enormously increases and its interconnection width is significantly narrowed, which leads to EMI (electromagnetic interference) problems on chip level. Chip manufacturer exploits TEM cell (transverse electromagnetic cell) to measure EMI on chip level, which requires PCB (printed circuit board) for measurement purpose. However, it is often neglected to consider that PCB patterns and other factors can affect on EMI measurement. In this paper, several test patterns are designed for different PCB design variables, and effects of PCB patterns on EMI measurement in TEM cell are analyzed. Based on these analyses, PCB design guidelines are also proposed to minimize the effects on EMI measurements.

An integrated data analysis program for DNA chip containing normalization, FDM analysis, various kinds of clustering methods, PCA, and SVD was applied to analyze combined yeast cell cycle data. This paper includes both comparisons of some clustering algorithms such as K-means, SOM and furry c-means and their results. For further analysis, clustering results from the integrated analysis program was used for function assignments to each cluster and for motif analysis. These results show an integrated analysis view on DNA chip data.

With a remarkable advance in CMOS (complimentary metal-oxide-semiconductor) process technology, a variety of vision sensors with signal processing circuits for complicated functions are actively being developed. Especially, as the principles of signal processing in human retina have been revealed, a series of vision chips imitating human retina have been reported. Human retina is able to detect the edge and motion of an object effectively. The edge detection among the several functions of the retina is accomplished by the cells called photoreceptor, horizontal cell and bipolar cell. We designed a CMOS vision chip by modeling cells of the retina as hardwares involved in edge and motion detection. The designed vision chip was fabricated using $0.6{\mu}m$ CMOS process and the characteristics were measured. Having reliable output characteristics, this chip can be used at the input stage for many applications, like targe tracking system, fingerprint recognition system, human-friendly robot system and etc.

We immobilized and patterned PDA vesicles on solid substrate using micro arrayer, which have moieties to react with chemical and biological materials. Immobilized vesicle system was developed since it possesses many advantages in multiple screening, durable stability, and higher sensitivity. We applied polydiacetylene supramolecules to chemical and biological sensors for detection of ${\alpha}-cyclodextrin$ and E.coli cell selectively. This detection method could be applied as DNA chip, protein chip, and cell chip for multiple screening as well as chemical sensor by modifying the functional groups of diacetylene monomer.

Viterbi decoder is implemented with a Radix-4 architecture at 0.5$\mu\textrm{m}$ process even though the delay time of standard tell is big and it causes a bigger chip size. As process develops, the delay time of standard cells is getting smaller. Therefore, the requirement of speed and chip size is satisfied by using Radix-2 algorithm to implement Viterbi decoder.

In this paper, we propose the single polycrystalline silicon flash EEPROM IC with a new structure which does not need the high voltage switching circuit. The design of high voltage switching circuits which are needed for the data program and erase, has been an obstacle to develop the single-poly EEPROM. Therefore, we has proposed the new cell structure which uses the low voltage switching circuits and has designed the full chip. A new single-poly EEPROM cell is designed and the full chip including the control block, the analog block, row decoder block, and the datapath block is designed. And the each block is verified by using the computer simulation. In addition, the full chip layout is performed.

For the safety evaluation of adenovirus-mediated gene transfer, we investigated differential gene expressions after transfecting adenoviral vector containing p16 tumor suppressor gene (Ad5CMV-p16) into human non-small cell lung cancer cells. In the previous study, we showed adenovirus-mediated $p16^{INK4a}$ gene transfer resulted in significant inhibition of cancer cell growth. We investigated gene expression changes after transfecting Ad5CMV-p16, Ad5CMV (null type, a mock vector) into A549 cells by using cDNA chip and oligonucleotide microarray chip (1200 genes) which carries genes related with signal transduction pathways, cell cycle regulations, oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. We found that $p16^{INK4a}$ gene transfer down regulated 5 genes (cdc2, cyclin D3, cyclin B, cyclin E, cdk2) among 26 genes involved in cell cycle regulations. Compared with serum-free medium treated cells, Ad5CMV-p16 changed 27 gene expressions, two fold or more on oligonucleotide chip. In addition, Ad5CMV-p16 did not seem to increase the tumorigenicity-related gene expression in A549 cells. Further studies will be needed to investigate the effect of Ad5CMV-p16 on normal human cells and tissues for safety evaluation.

A 0.18-${\mu}m$ 3.3 V grounded-gate NMOS (GGNMOS) I/O cell array for timing controller (TCON) application is proposed for improving electrical overstress (EOS) robustness. The improved cell array consists of 20 GGNMOS, 4 inserted well taps, 2 end-well taps and shallow trench isolation (STI). Technology computer-aided design (TCAD) simulation results show that the inserted well taps and extended drain contact gate spacing (DCGS) is effective in preventing EOS failure, e.g. local burnout. Thermodynamic models for device simulation enable us to obtain lattice temperature distributions inside the cells. The peak value of the maximum lattice temperature in the improved GGNMOS cell array is lower than that in a conventional GGNMOS cell array. The inserted well taps also improve the uniformity of turn-on of GGNMOS cells. EOS test results show the validity of the simulation results on improvement of EOS robustness of the new GGNMOS I/O cell array.
