In this paper, isolation strategies for improving broadband circuit performance and preventing noise arising from circuit component coupling are presented. Equivalent circuit parameters, including parasitic elements, are determined for capacitor and inductor structures. The effects of the relative position of the components with regard to a ground plane are considered in the equivalent circuits. Novel meshed ground structures are investigated to determine a configuration that improves the overall circuit performance.

Two kinds of simple active oscillators are proposed and analyzed assuming that operational amplifier has two-poles frequency characteristics. The first circuit is composed of one operational amplifier, one resistor and one grounded capacitor. The second oscillator is realized with one operational amplifier and three resitors. Proposed oscillators have the low sensitivity of the oscillation frequency for little variations of the passive element values. By the experimental results obtained with Op-Amp. ${\mu}A741$, the simple oscillators can be useful for the frequency range $1.25 KHz{\leq}f_{01}{\leq}40KHz$ for the active-RC type or $45.45 KHz{\leq}f_{02}{\leq}400KHz$ for the active-R oscillator, and it is shown to transform the active-R oscillator circuit into the voltage controlled type. Therefore, two kinds of oscillator circuit are attractive for the IC realization, because they have one operational amplifier, one resistor and one grounded capacitor, or three resistors.

This paper proposed hardware architecture of the block cryptographic algorithm HIGHT aiming small size and low power application, and analyzed its performance. The HIGHT is a modified algorithm of the Feistel. The encryption and decryption circuit were designed as one iterative block. It reduces the redundant circuit that yields small area. For the performance improvement, the circuit generates 32-bit subkey during 1 clock cycle. we synthesized the HIGHT with Hynix $0.25-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The proposed circuit size was 2.658 EG(equivalent gate), and its power consumption was $10.88{\mu}W$ at 2.5V for 100kHz. It is useful for a passive RFID tag or a smart IC card of a small size and low power.

In this paper, a passive load-pull using a GaN HEMT (Gallium Nitride High Electron Mobility Transistor) bare-chip in X-band is presented. To obtain operation conditions that characteristic change by self-heating was minimized, pulsed drain bias voltage and pulsed-RF signal is employed. An accuracy impedance matching circuits considered parasitic components such as wire-bonding effect at the boundary of the drain is accomplished through the use of a electro-magnetic simulation and a circuit simulation. The microstrip line length-tunable matching circuit is employed to adjust the impedance. The measured maximum output power and drain efficiency of the pulsed load-pull are 42.46 dBm and 58.7%, respectively, across the 8.5-9.2 GHz band.

In this paper, In this paper, we consider a dynamic range in the frequency converter to obtain a high conversion gain and linearity while operating area proposed to broaden the design. Super-heterodyne RF Front-End style was applied to the active mixer stage, GaAs devices were used. Circuit design easy and simple forms benefit circuit is constructed in the drain mixer, passive mixer with the operating area were compared and analyzed. The simulation results of the conversion gain of 2.4dB and 0.2dBm about a gain-compression point, and showed the dynamic range of 71.9dB, when compared with passive mixers, dynamic range of approximately 6dB improvement was identified. Measurements of an approximately 2dB conversion gain and-1.0dBm of the gain-compression point, and confirmed that the active area of 71.1dB. When compared with passive mixers, dynamic range of is reduced by approximately 8dB has been improved.

In this paper, we developed remote control devices that can be controlled passive component e.g. resistor, inductor, capacitor that is a basic element in the electric circuit. We embodied a remote laboratory for basic circuit theory which learners can experiment controlling element value to remote through the internet. It was seen that is useful applying passive component developing to a remote laboratory. Because developed passive components can response in an experiment altering several element values to remote, they will be used very usefully in a remote experiment that equip various experiment theme. Therefor the proposed laboratory will be solved problems of virtual laboratory which students do not handle instruments in engineering experiment. With our proposed system, students can experiment any time, anywhere.

In this study, a short-wavelength transmission line employing periodically arrayed capacitive devices (PACD) was studied for application to miniaturized on-chip passive component on monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC). The transmission line employing PACD showed shorter wavelength and lower characteristic impedance than conventional microstrip transmission line. The wavelength transmission line employing PACD structure was 8% of the conventional microstrip transmission line on GaAs substrate. Using the theoretical analysis, basic characteristic of the transmission line employing PACD (e.g., loss, effective dielectric constant, effective propagation constant, bandwidth ) were also investigated in order to evaluate its suitability for application to a development of miniaturized passive on-chip components on MMIC. Above results indicate that the transmission line employing PACD is a promising candidate for a development of miniaturized passive components on MMIC.

The micro capacitors are passive elements necessary to electronic circuits and wireless portable PAN(personal area network) and Mobile Communications device modules in the baseband circuits in combination with another passive and active devices. As capacitance is proportionally increased with dielectric constant and electrode areas, in addition, inversely decreased the thickness of the dielectric material, thus thin film capacitors are generally seen as a preferable means to achieve high performance and thin film capacitors are used in a variety of functional circuit devices. In this paper, propose dielectric material as AIN(Aluminium nitride) to make micro thin film capacitor, and this capacitor has the MIM(metal-insulator-metal) structure. AIN thin films are widespread applied because they had more excellent properties such as chemical stability, high thermal conductivity, electrical isolation and so on. In addition, AIN films show low frequency response for baseband signal ranges, I-V and C-V electrical characterization of a thin film micro capacitor. The above experimental test and estimated results demonstrate that the thin film capacitor has sufficient and efficient functional performance to be the baseband range frequency of general electronics circuit and passive device applications.
