Single Phase Resonant LC Circuit Using a Bank of Self-Switched Capacitors

Alfred Rufer, Daniel Siemaszko, Christian Rod

This paper presents a preliminary work on the feeding of an AC dipole using a resonant circuit with a varying resonant frequency. A single phase LC oscillator containing a variable capacitor is fed by a wide band amplifier or a voltage source inverter. For ...

Design of a 2.4 Ghz BAW-Based CMOS Transmitter

Matteo Contaldo

In recent years, bulk acoustic wave resonators (BAW) in combination with RF circuits have shown a big potential in achieving the low-power consumption and miniaturization level required to address wireless sensor nodes (WSN) applications. A lot of work has ...

MAGY: an innovative high voltage - low current power supply for gyrotron

Damien Fasel, Ugo Siravo, Albert Perez, Mauro Carpita

From the electrical point of view, the body and the anode of high power gyrotrons behave as capacitive loads. A highly dynamic power supply is, therefore, hard to achieve. The MAGY concept (Modulator for the Anode of a triode type GYrotron) embodies an inn ...

Active Microelectromechanical Resonator

Daniel Grogg

The progress in the technology of microelectronic devices has led to a strong miniaturization and high performance for circuits and systems, enabling modern applications such as mobile computing and communications. Today, remaining "off-chip" components th ...

Positive feedbacks contribute to the robustness of the cell cycle with respect to molecular noise

Marc Hafner

Most cellular oscillators rely on interlocked positive and negative regulatory feedback loops. While a negative circuit is necessary and sufficient to have limit-cycle oscillations, the role of positive feedbacks is not clear. Here we investigate the possi ...

Self-sustained low power oscillator based on vibrating body field effect transistor

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Daniel Grogg, Suat Ayoz

The operation of a vibrating body field effect transistor (VB-FET) near pull-in is exploited to experimentally demonstrate a self-oscillating device. The positive feedback mechanism is triggered at the onset of inversion in a depleted VB-FET channel, near ...

Low power frequency synthesizer for mobile communications systems

Imre Kovacs

A novel frequency synthesizer with a strong emphasis on low-power consumption (2mW) was developed for this thesis. A BAW-resonator was used for the design of the high-frequency oscillator. The BAW's high Q-Factor ensured a minimal power consumption, while ...

9 MHz vibrating body FET tuning fork oscillator

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Maher Kayal, Daniel Grogg, Fabrizio Lo Conte

A 9.4MHz micro-electromechanical oscillator based on a Vibrating Body Field Effect Transistor (VB-FET) is presented in this work. The tuning fork VB-FET used in this work provides a high quality factor of 9400 in the open-loop configuration and a low equiv ...

A low-power 2.4 GHz CMOS receiver using BAW resonators

Jérémie Chabloz

It has already been a few years since the first appearance of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) in academic research. Since then, a broad number of devices have been designed under this generic term. Bulk-acoustic wave (BAW) resonators are among the f ...

Ultrafast nonresonant response of TiO2 nanostructured films

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Erwin Portuondo Campa

The authors present a detailed study of the nonresonant 3rd-order ultrafast response of TiO2 nanostructured films, combining a classical heterodyned optical Kerr effect expt., with 2 polarization selective Kerr techniques, based on transient lensing and ph ...
