A High Linearity Broadband Gain Block/LNA MMIC with Diode Predistortion in GaAs pHEMT Technology
Memioglu, Onur; Gundel, Adnan (2018-11-02)
This paper presents a high linearity broadband low noise amplifier/gain-block MMIC based on shunt feedback and shunt peaking circuit technique. The design targets DC-1.0 Gift band with excellent noise figure performance. At the input a diode based predistorter is used to further enhance the lineratity of the circuit. A two-stage amplifier is implemented in 0.25 m InGaAs E/D-mode plIEMT technology demonstrates a high gain and an excellent bandwidth along with high-linearity. This amplifier topology seems an ...
A low-power robust humidity sensor in a standard CMOS process
Okcan, Burak; Akın, Tayfun (2007-11-01)
This paper presents a low-cost thermal-conductivity-based humidity sensor implemented using a 0.6-mu m CMOS process, where suspended p-n junction diodes are used as the humidity-sensitive elements. The measurement method uses the difference between the thermal conductivities of air and water vapor at high temperatures by comparing the output voltages of two hea ted and thermally isolated diodes; one of which is exposed to the environment and has a humidity-dependent thermal conductance, while the other is s...
A high performance Sigma-Delta readout circuitry for mu g resolution microaccelerometers
Ocak, Ilker E.; Kepenek, Reha; Külah, Haluk; Akın, Tayfun (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2010-08-01)
This paper reports a second order electromechanical sigma-delta readout for micro-g resolution accelerometers in addition to other high-sensitivity capacitive microsensors with large base capacitance. The chip implements a switched-capacitor readout front-end and an oversampled sigma-delta modulator, and hence can be used for both open-loop analog readout and closed-loop control and readout with direct digital output. The readout circuit has more than 115 dB dynamic range and can resolve less than 3 aF/root...
A 1-V Nanopower Highly Tunable Biquadratic Gm−C Bandpass Filter for Fully Implantable Cochlear Implants
Özbek, Berkay; Külah, Haluk (2021-12-23)
This paper presents a low power highly tunable second-order Gm−C bandpass filter for auditory signal processing of fully implantable cochlear implants. The resonance frequency of the filter is tunable within the daily acoustic band of 200 - 6000 Hz with a tunable quality factor from 1 to 3. The operational transconductance amplifiers (OTAs) operate in the subthreshold region to achieve low power consumption. The input transistors are driven from the bulk to reduce the transconductance so that the low freque...
A thermal conductivity based humidity sensor in a standard CMOS process
Okean, B; Akın, Tayfun (2004-01-29)
This paper presents a low-cost, thermal conductivity based humidity sensor implemented using a 0.6 mum CMOS process where suspended p-n junction diodes are used as the humidity sensitive elements. In this method, the difference between the thermal conductivities of air and water vapor at high temperatures is used. Humidity sensing idea is to compare the output voltages of two heated and thermally isolated diodes one of which is exposed to the environment and has a humidity dependent thermal conductance whil...
