MOS-only design automation and a simple agile MOS-only BP/LP filter design
In this work, a systematic of the automation in the result of the re-obtained small signal parameters based on SPICE is presented for MOS-Only circuits. Accuracy of the re-obtained parameters was improved by re-formulating in the basis of SPICE and CADENCE-SPECTRE. Moreover, piece-wise polynomial regressive models are presented for gds, gm and Ids-Also, performance of the models are compared with conventional expressions. Success of the given MOS-Only design automation based on re-obtained small signal parameters is verified with an examplary new agile filter.
MOS Only and MOSFET-C Circuit Design
A MOS-Only active filter makes use of the intrinsic parameters, gate-to-source capacitance (Cgs) and transconductance (gm) of a MOS transistor. Even though a large number of filter designs, which incorporate active elements are reported in the literature, they bring big chip area and restricted operating frequency owing to including high numbers of transistors. In this respect, MOS-Only filters can be used to overcome these limits due to the fact that they enable to operate at higher frequencies and have smaller chip areas.In this work, we present an automation algorithm based on polynomial regression with typical design examples.
Simulation and control of hybrid renewable energy system connected to the grid
This paper presents a control and simulation of hybrid renewable energy system connected to the grid. The studied system includes a photovoltaic panel, synchronous permanent magnet generator based wind turbine, and a battery for storage energy. The PV array and wind systems are connected to the common DC bus by a boost converter. The battery is connected by a bi-directional DC/DC converter, and then integrated into the AC utility grid via a common DC/AC inverter. In order to extract the maximum energy, a simulation study has been carried out according to the meteorological conditions (wind speed and variable solar irradiance) while maintaining power quality at a satisfactory level. In order to capture the maximum power, a MPPT algorithm is applied for both wind turbine and photovoltaic panel. The modeling and simulation of the whole system has been performed under Matlab/Simulink environment. The obtained results show that the current and the voltage of grid side are sinusoidal and alternative forms, and the power injected to the grid is around the power produced by the hybrid system.
