Online aptitude test management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
The purpose of on-line aptitude test system is to take online test in an efficient manner and no time wasting for checking the paper. The main objective of on-line aptitude test system is to efficiently evaluate the candidate thoroughly through a fully automated system that not only saves lot of time but also gives fast results. For students they give papers according to their convenience and time and there is no need of using extra thing like paper, pen etc. This can be used in educational institutions as well as in corporate world. Can be used anywhere any time as it is a web based application (user Location doesn’t matter). No restriction that examiner has to be present when the candidate takes the test.
Every time when lecturers/professors need to conduct examinations they have to sit down think about the questions and then create a whole new set of questions for each and every exam. In some cases the professor may want to give an open book online exam that is the student can take the exam any time anywhere, but the student might have to answer the questions in a limited time period. The professor may want to change the sequence of questions for every student. The problem that a student has is whenever a date for the exam is declared the student has to take it and there is no way he can take it at some other time. This project will create an interface for the examiner to create and store questions in a repository. It will also create an interface for the student to take examinations at his convenience and the questions and/or exams may be timed. Thereby creating an application which can be used by examiners and examinee’s simultaneously.
Examination System is very useful for Teachers/Professors. As in the teaching profession, you are responsible for writing question papers. In the conventional method, you write the question paper on paper, keep question papers separate from answers and all this information you have to keep in a locker to avoid unauthorized access. Using the Examination System you can create a question paper and everything will be written to a single exam file in encrypted format. You can set the General and Administrator password to avoid unauthorized access to your question paper. Every time you start the examination, the program shuffles all the questions and selects them randomly from the database, which reduces the chances of memorizing the questions.
A review on techniques and modelling methodologies used for checking electrom...nooriasukmaningtyas
The proper function of the integrated circuit (IC) in an inhibiting electromagnetic environment has always been a serious concern throughout the decades of revolution in the world of electronics, from disjunct devices to today’s integrated circuit technology, where billions of transistors are combined on a single chip. The automotive industry and smart vehicles in particular, are confronting design issues such as being prone to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Electronic control devices calculate incorrect outputs because of EMI and sensors give misleading values which can prove fatal in case of automotives. In this paper, the authors have non exhaustively tried to review research work concerned with the investigation of EMI in ICs and prediction of this EMI using various modelling methodologies and measurement setups.

HEAP SORT ILLUSTRATED WITH HEAPIFY, BUILD HEAP FOR DYNAMIC ARRAYS.
Heap sort is a comparison-based sorting technique based on Binary Heap data structure. It is similar to the selection sort where we first find the minimum element and place the minimum element at the beginning. Repeat the same process for the remaining elements.
Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.
Low power architecture of logic gates using adiabatic techniquesnooriasukmaningtyas
The growing significance of portable systems to limit power consumption in ultra-large-scale-integration chips of very high density, has recently led to rapid and inventive progresses in low-power design. The most effective technique is adiabatic logic circuit design in energy-efficient hardware. This paper presents two adiabatic approaches for the design of low power circuits, modified positive feedback adiabatic logic (modified PFAL) and the other is direct current diode based positive feedback adiabatic logic (DC-DB PFAL). Logic gates are the preliminary components in any digital circuit design. By improving the performance of basic gates, one can improvise the whole system performance. In this paper proposed circuit design of the low power architecture of OR/NOR, AND/NAND, and XOR/XNOR gates are presented using the said approaches and their results are analyzed for powerdissipation, delay, power-delay-product and rise time and compared with the other adiabatic techniques along with the conventional complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) designs reported in the literature. It has been found that the designs with DC-DB PFAL technique outperform with the percentage improvement of 65% for NOR gate and 7% for NAND gate and 34% for XNOR gate over the modified PFAL techniques at 10 MHz respectively.
2. Topics to be covered
• Evolution of VLSI
• MOS Transistor theory
• MOS Structure
• Threshold Voltage
3. Evolution of VLSI
The first “generation” of computers were relied on vacuum tube devices, after
this discrete semiconductor devices, followed by integrated circuits have been
evolved. The first integrated circuit was manufactured independently by two
scientists: Jack and Kilby of Texas Instruments in 1959. The first IC had small
number of devices on a single chip then diodes, transistors, resistors and
capacitors, made it possible to fabricate one or more logic gates on a single
device. Digital integrated circuits are classified according to the number of
transistors integrated on a single chip. The different technologies involved in
digital integrated circuits are as follows.
4. EvolutionContd
Late 40s: Transistors invented at Bell Labs
Late 50s: first integrated circuits
Early 60s: Small Scale Integration (SSI), 10s of transistors on a chip
Late 60s: Medium Scale Integration (MSI), 100s of transistors on a
chip
Early 70s: Large Scale Integration (LSI), 1000s of transistors on a
chip
Early 80s: Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI), 100,000s of
transistors on chip but now increased to 1,000,000s of transistors on
chip
5. Ultra large-scale integration (ULSI):
• It describes very large memories, larger microprocessors, and larger
single-chip computers. Complexities of 100,000 equivalent gates and
greater are classified as ULSI.
Wafer-Scale Integration (WSI):
• Another technique used in IC industry is the wafer-scale integration
(WSI), which uses the complete uncut wafers for the development of
processors and memory. The WSI step was taken in 1980s by Gene
Amdahl who is failed due to the semiconductor level manufacturing
issues.
EvolutionContd
6. System-on- Chip (SOC) :
• Although the WSI technique failed due to semiconductor level
manufacturing issues, the advanced tools in semiconductor
manufacturing produces another thread on IC complexity, which is
known as System-on- Chip (SOC) design. In this SOC, the IC blocks
are manufactured as a various chips and have been integrated in a
chip. In addition, the printed circuit boards are developed to occupy
the chip which involves memory, microprocessors, peripheral
interfaces, Input/Output logic control, data converters etc. to develop
electronic systems.
Advantage of VLSI:
• Smaller size Higher reliability
• Lower cost Lower Power More functionality
Disadvantage of VLSI: Long design and fabrication time and Higher
risk to project
EvolutionContd
7. MOS Transistor Theory
• The MOS field effect transistor (MOSFET) is the fundamental
building block of MOS and CMOS digital integrated circuits.
Compared to BJT, the MOS transistor occupies relatively smaller
silicon area, and its fabrication involves fewer processing steps.
8. • These technological advantages, together with relative simplicity of
MOSFET operation, have helped the MOS transistor the most widely
used switching device in LSI and VLSI circuits. In the figure below
(figure 1), the structure consist of three layers: the metal Gate, the
insulating oxide layer (SiO2), and the P-type bulk semiconductor
called the substrate
• From the Mass Action Law, we know that the semiconductor is
always electrically neutral until and unless external potential is
applied. Thus

Assuming that the substrate is uniformly doped with acceptor ion, the
equilibrium electron and hole concentration is given by

9. MOS system under External Bias
Assume that the substrate voltage, VB=0, and Gate voltage be the
controlling parameter. Depending upon the polarity and the magnitude
of VG, three different operating regions can be observed: accumulation,
depletion, and inversion.
• Case-I: If a negative voltage, VG, is applied to the Gate electrode, the
holes in the p-type substrate are attracted towards the semiconductor
oxide interface. The majority carrier concentration near the surface
becomes larger than the equilibrium hole concentration in the
substrate. Hence this condition is called accumulation on the surface.
In this case the oxide electric field is directed towards the Gate
electrode. At the interface, the hole concentration is increased and the
electron concentration is reduced
MOSTransistorTheory
10. Case-II: In case two, let us apply a small positive Gate bias at the Gate
electrode. Since the substrate bias is zero, the oxide electric field will
be directed toward the substrate in this case. The positive surface
potential causes the energy bands to bend downwards near the surface
as shown below. The majority carriers i.e. holes in the substrate will be
repelled back into the substrate and will leave negatively charged ions.
Thus a region devoid of any major charge carriers is created, and this
region is called depletion region. In this region, the surface near the
semiconductor-oxide interface is devoid of any major charge carriers
MOSTransistorTheory
11. • The thickness, xd, of this depletion region due to small positive
potential at the Gate electrode can easily be found as a function of the
surface potential φs.
𝒅𝑸 = −𝒒. 𝑵 𝑨. 𝒅𝒙
The change in the surface potential required to displace this charge
sheet dQ by the distance xd away from the surface can be founded by
using the Poisson equation.

Thus the depth of the depletion region is given by
𝒙 𝒅 =
𝟐𝜺 𝒔𝒊. ǀ𝝋 𝒔 − 𝝋 𝑭ǀ
𝒒. 𝑵 𝑨
And the depletion charge density, which consists solely of fixed
acceptor ions in this region, is given by the following expression
𝑸 = −𝒒. 𝑵 𝑨. 𝒙 𝒅 = − 𝟐𝒒. 𝑵 𝑨. 𝜺 𝒔𝒊. ǀ𝝋 𝒔 − 𝝋 𝑭ǀ
MOSTransistorTheory
13. Case-III: In the third case we further increase the positive Gate bias.
Due to the increase in the surface potential, the downward bending of
the energy band will also increase. Eventually, the mid-gap energy level
Ei becomes smaller than the Fermi level EFP on the surface. This
means that the substrate semiconductor in this region becomes n-
type.
• Within this thin layer, the electron density is larger than the majority
hole density The n-type region created near the surface by the positive
gate bias is called the inversion layer, and this condition is called
surface inversion.
MOSTransistorTheory
14. • Thus the depletion region depth achieved at the onset of surface
inversion is also equal to maximum depletion depth, 𝑥 𝑑𝑚, which
remains constant for higher Gate voltages.

16. • This four terminal device consist of p-type substrate, having two n+
regions, Drain and Source, are formed. The surface of the substrate
between Drain and Source is covered with thin silicon oxide layer to
act as an insulating layer. On top of this thin layer, a metal contact for
Gate electrode is provided
• The two n+ regions are the current conducting terminals of the
device. The device is completely symmetrical with respect to the
Drain and source regions. These regions are defined separately with
respect to the potential applied to the regions and the direction of the
current flow.
MOSStructure
17. • There are two types of MOSFET based on the presence or absence of
the conduction channel.
• Enhancement type MOSFET: no conducting channel at zero gate
bias
• Depletion type MOSFET: physical presence of conducting channel
at zero gate bias
• n-channel MOSFET: n+ Source and Drain terminal, n-type channel,
and p-type substrate
• p-channel MOSFET: p+ Source and Drain terminal, p-type channel,
and n-type substrate
MOSStructure
18. Control the current conduction between the
source and the drain, using the electric
field generated by the gate voltage as a
control variable. Since the current flow in
the channel is also controlled by the drain-
,to-source voltage and by the substrate
voltage, the current can be considered a
function of these external terminal voltages
MOSStructure
20. • The work function difference between the gate and the channel
The work function difference −𝝋 𝑮𝑪 between gate and the channel
reflects the built in potential of the MOS system. Depending on the gate
material the work function difference is given as follows:
𝝋 𝑮𝑪 = 𝝋 𝑭 𝒔𝒖𝒃𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒆 − 𝝋 𝑴 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒎𝒆𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒈𝒂𝒕𝒆
𝝋 𝑮𝑪 = 𝝋 𝑭 𝒔𝒖𝒃𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒆 − 𝝋 𝑭 𝒈𝒂𝒕𝒆 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒑𝒐𝒍𝒚𝒔𝒊𝒍𝒍𝒊𝒄𝒐𝒏 𝒈𝒂𝒕𝒆
• The gate voltage component to change the surface potential
The externally applied gate voltage must be changed to achieve surface
inversion, i.e., to change the surface potential by 〖-2φ〗_F
ThresholdVoltage
21. • The gate voltage component to offset the depletion region charge
This component is due to the fixed acceptor ions located in the
depletion region near the surface. We can calculate the depletion region
charge density at surface inversion (𝝋 𝑺 = −𝝋 𝑭) from the
previous equation of charge density as follows
𝑸 𝑩𝟎 = − 𝟐𝒒. 𝑵 𝑨. 𝜺 𝒔𝒊. ǀ −𝟐𝝋 𝑭 ǀ for VSB = 0
𝑸 𝑩 = − 𝟐𝒒. 𝑵 𝑨. 𝜺 𝒔𝒊. ǀ −𝟐𝝋 𝑭 +𝑽 𝑺𝑩ǀ for VSB ≠ 0
Now the voltage component that offsets the depletion charge density is
given by –QB/Cox where Cox is the gate oxide capacitance per unit area
ThresholdVoltage
22. • The voltage component to offset the fixed charges in the gate
oxide and in the silicon-oxide interface
