In the past decades, two recording tools have established themselves as the working horses in the field of electrophysiological cell research: the microelectrode array (MEA) and the optical fluorescence imaging. The former is a grid of miniature electrodes ...
A method for noise reduction in active-RC circuits is introduced. It is shown that the output noise in an active-RC circuit can be considerably reduced, without disturbing the circuit transfer function by inserting appropriate passive or active components ...

The efficient synthesis of circuits is a well-studied problem. Due to the NP-hardness of the problem, no optimal algorithm has been presented so far. However, the heuristics presented by several researchers in the past, which are also adopted by commercial ...
In this paper, a novel circuit referred to as complex Gm-C sampler that can be used for sub-sampling IF signals is presented. The circuit employs a conventional cross-coupled Gm-C filter structure with a built-in sampler to combine th ...

This paper presents a preliminary work on a resonant circuit, also called AC-dipole. The resonance frequency of the circuit is changed by the mean of a variable capacitor connecting an inductor. For this purpose, a bank of switched capacitors of different ...

In this work we establish novel analytical and small signal circuit modeling of two major effects that co-exist in active Micro-Electro-Mechanical resonators: charge and piezoresistance modulations. Analytical expressions for the output current of vibratin ...
Digital circuits operating in the sub-threshold regime are able to perform minimum energy operation at a given delay. In the sub-threshold regime circuit delay, hence the leakage energy consumption depends on the supply voltage exponentially. By reducing t ...

A novel, current-mode, binary-tree, asynchronous Min/Max circuit for application in nonlinear filters as well as in analog artificial neural networks is proposed. The relatively high precision above 99% can be achieved by eliminating the copying of the inp ...
We present an efficient method to model the small-signal modulation response of a long-wavelength VCSEL chip using an equivalent electrical circuit. This circuit serves two distinct purposes. Based on T-Matrix formalism, it is used to remove the parasitics ...
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 ...
