Design consideration in low dropout voltage regulator for batteryless power m...journalBEEI
Harvesting energy from ambient Radio Frequency (RF) source is a great deal toward batteryless Internet of Thing (IoT) System on Chip (SoC) application as green technology has become a future interest. However, the harvested energy is unregulated thus it is highly susceptible to noise and cannot be used efficiently. Therefore, a dedicated low noise and high Power Supply Ripple Rejection (PSRR) of Low Dropout (LDO) voltage regulator are needed in the later stages of system development to supply the desired load voltage. Detailed analysis of the noise and PSRR of an LDO is not sufficient. This work presents a design of LDO to generate a regulated output voltage of 1.8V from 3.3V input supply targeted for 120mA load application. The performance of LDO is evaluated and analyzed. The PSRR and noise in LDO have been investigated by applying a low-pass filter. The proposed design achieves the design specification through the simulation results by obtaining 90.85dB of open-loop gain, 76.39º of phase margin and 63.46dB of PSRR respectively. The post-layout simulation shows degradation of gain and maximum load current due to parasitic issue. The measurement of maximum load regulation is dropped to 96mA compared 140mA from post-layout. The proposed LDO is designed using 180nm Silterra CMOS process technology.

3) While proof-of-concept was achieved, the document discusses using lasers and fiber optics to transmit signals over greater distances with higher information content.

The Analysis of Dead Time on Switching Loss in High and Low Side MOSFETs of Z...IDES Editor
This work is about the analysis of dead time
variation on switching losses in a Zero Voltage Switching
(ZVS) synchronous buck converter (SBC) circuit. In high
frequency converter circuits, switching losses are
commonly linked with high and low side switches of SBC
circuit. They are activated externally by the gate driver
circuit. The duty ratio, dead time and resonant inductor
are the parameters that affect the efficiency of the circuit.
These variables can be adjusted for the optimization
purposes. The study primarily focuses on varying the
settings of input pulses of the MOSFETs in the resonant
gate driver circuit which consequently affects the
performance of the ZVS synchronous buck converter
circuit. Using the predetermined inductor of 9 nH, the
frequency is maintained at 1 MHz for each cycle
transition. The switching loss graph is obtained and
switching losses for both S1 and S2 are calculated and
compared to the findings from previous work. It has
shown a decrease in losses by 13.8 % in S1. A dead time of
15 ns has been determined to be optimized value in the
SBC design.

The document discusses the Internet of Things (IoT). It provides an overview of IoT, describing it as using sensors and devices connected to the internet to collect and analyze data from various objects and systems to gain insights. The presentation discusses the benefits of IoT, including preventative maintenance, improved productivity and efficiency, and assisted living. It also outlines the typical architecture of an IoT system and provides examples of IoT applications in smart homes, smart living, and agriculture.
This document discusses the design of wireless autonomous sensor platforms and antennas for low-power sensor applications. It summarizes the design of a spherical helix antenna for the Wisemote sensor platform to make it more efficient than the current chip antenna. The antenna was simulated electromagnetically and tested, showing horizontal polarization and an S11 of -17 dB at 2.25 GHz. Conformal printing was used to manufacture the antenna which was integrated on the Wisemote. Energy harvesting techniques are also discussed, including using solar cells and magneto sensors to power wireless sensor platforms like the proposed Cargate design.
The document discusses the design of a 60 GHz receiver in CMOS. It aims to achieve over 1 Gbps data rate at 10 m distance, cost less than 10 euros, and have a robust receiver. The challenges include using the latest CMOS technology between 65-45nm, selecting channel bandwidth and modulation, and meeting system specifications. The document then evaluates the link budget, calculates bit rate requirements, discusses system specifications and performance, and choices of architecture and technology. It also provides details on the design of the low noise amplifier including specifications, performance analysis, and future improvements.
The document discusses a workshop on smart sensor systems held by Delft Institute of Microelectronics. It provides an overview of various lectures on topics related to silicon sensors and smart sensor design, including applications, measurement techniques, calibration, sensor types, interfaces and more. The goal is to discuss specifications, design and development of smart silicon sensor systems.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
