A mixed-signal platform dedicated to power system dynamic computation

Laurent Fabre, Maher Kayal, Cédric Meinen, Ira Nagel

has already been proven that analog emulation overcomes the speed limits of numerical simulators by means of a simple fixed-topology prototype. In order to enhance the modularity and the size of the emulated power system a dedicated platform based on a field programmable power network system (FPPNS) has been developed. This platform contains an application specific integrated circuit as main building block. Details on the designed hardware are given in this paper. Furthermore the emulator is validated comparing its emulation results with numerical reference simulations. The promising results of this platform show that the design of a fully integrated solution containing an array of 100 atoms can be started. © 2011 IEEE.

Double gate movable body Micro-Electro-Mechanical FET as hysteretic switch: Application to data transmission systems

This paper reports on the fabrication, experimental characterization and data transmission application of a double-gate movable body FET. As its name suggests, the proposed movable-body Micro-Electro-Mechanical FET (MB-MEMFET) is a hybrid MEMS-semiconductor device that, in contrast with previously reported Suspended-Gate MOSFET, has a movable body separated by nano-size air gaps from two lateral fixed gates. We report here on the unique abrupt hysteretic characteristic of MB-MEMFET, which for our design offer reproducibility after intense cycling and, due to double gate architecture, a multi-level tunable hysteresis. Based on the

hysteretic behavior of the new hybrid device we report for the first time a FSK circuit exploiting oscillation at two selectable frequencies (26 kHz and 14 kHz) used to transmit numerical data, which demonstrates the potential of the MB-MEMFET for applications in data transmission systems.
