Methodology For The Digital Calibration of Analog Circuits And Systems : With Case Studies by Marc Pastre, Maher Kayal

Methodology for the Digital Calibration of Analog Circuits and Systems shows how to relax the extreme design constraints in analog circuits, allowing the realization of high-precision systems even with low-performance components. A complete methodology is proposed, and three applications are detailed.

IS THE TOPIC ANALOG TESTING AND DIAGNOSIS TIMELY? Yes, indeed it is. Testing and Diagnosis is an important topic and fulfills a vital need for the electronic industry. The testing and diagnosis of digital electronic circuits has been successfuIly developed to the point that it can be automated. Unfortu­ nately, its development for analog electronic circuits is still in its Stone Age. The engineer's intuition is still the most powerful tool used in the industry! There are two reasons for this. One is that there has been no pressing need from the industry. Analog circuits are usuaIly small in size. Sometimes, the engineer's experience and intuition are sufficient to fulfill the need. The other reason is that there are no breakthrough results from academic re­ search to provide the industry with critical ideas to develop tools. This is not because of a lack of effort. Both academic and industrial research groups have made major efforts to look into this problem. Unfortunately, the prob­ lem for analog circuits is fundamentally different from and much more diffi­ cult than its counterpart for digital circuits.

Sebastian K. Crönert presents a new, automated process that makes it possible to obtain all the fuel properties required for combustion simulation. If necessary, these are then transferred - also automatically - into specially created correlation equations through which they are then made available again at simulation runtime. This method makes it possible to represent even more complex correlations and cross-influences on calculation variables in a resource-optimised way (memory requirements and access time) while maintaining the same accuracy. The procedure is validated using test bench measurement data for the pure fuels anisole and cyclopentanone and their blends with regular petrol (RON95E10). Additional validations include more established synthetic fuels and hydrogen. It is shown that an extraordinarily high prediction quality can be achieved for the model class.

This book describes novel circuit and system solutions for the design of analog electronic interfaces for resistive, capacitive and temperature sensors, also showing a wide variation range, with the intent to give a complete overview of the first analog front-ends. After a description of the main kinds of sensors and their definitions, the book presents novel electronic circuits, most of which do not require any initial calibration, also designed with analog microelectronic techniques, at transistor level in a standard CMOS integrated technology.

This book highlights selected papers presented at the 10th International Symposium on Embedded Computing and System Design (ISED) 2021. This symposium aims to provide a platform for young researchers to share the latest scientific achievements of embedded computing and system design. The book is divided into three broad sections. The first section discusses topics like VLSI and testing, circuits and systems with a focus on emerging technologies. The second section discusses topics like embedded hardware and software systems and novel applications. The final section discusses the state-of-the-art technologies involving IoT, artificial intelligence, green and edge computing that demonstrates the issues currently.

Computer-Aided Design of Analog Circuits and Systems brings together in one place important contributions and state-of-the-art research results in the rapidly advancing area of computer-aided design of analog circuits and systems.

The microelectronics market trends present an ever-increasing level of complexity with special emphasis on the production of complex mixed-signal systems-on-chip. Strict economic and design pressures have driven the development of new methods to automate the analog design process. However, and despite some significant research efforts, the essential act of design at the transistor level is still performed by the trial and error interaction between the designer and the simulator.

The book constitutes peer-reviewed proceedings of a workshop on Emerging Electronics Devices, Circuits, and Systems (EEDCS) held in conjunction with International Symposium on Devices, Circuits, and Systems (ISDCS 2022). The book focuses on the recent development in devices, circuits, and systems. It also discusses innovations, trends, practical challenges, and solutions adopted in device design, modeling, fabrication, characterization, and their circuit implementation with pertinent system applications. It will be useful for researchers, developers, engineers, academicians, and students.
