By the continuing downscaling of sub-micron transistors in the range of few to sub-
decananometers, we focus on the increasing relative level of the low-frequency noise in …

Knowledge tracing serves as the key technique in the computer supported education
environment (eg, intelligent tutoring systems) to model student's knowledge states. While the …

In this tutorial brief, we introduce a unified wideband phase-noise theory framework of
frequency synthesis based on a multirate timestamp modeling with “two-variables”. We …

This article presents a millimeter-wave (mmW) frequency synthesizer based on a new
charge-sharing locking (CSL) technique. A charge-preset capacitor is introduced for charge …

This paper presents a phase noise analysis of charge-pump phase-locked-loops.
Fundamental results from the theory of discrete-time systems are employed to derive closed …

A 2.1-GHz dividerless PLL with low power, low reference spur and low in-band phase noise
is introduced in this paper. A new phase detection mechanism using aperture-phase …

The simulation of the full netlist of a phase locked loop (PLL) is resource demanding due to
the prohibitive time needed to derive output noise, spurs, and transient performance from …

All-digital phase-locked loops (ADPLL) are inherently multirate systems with time-varying
behavior. In support of this statement linear time-variant (LTV) models of ADPLL are …

<? Pub Dtl=""?> An admittance or impedance matrix of a power converter is highly desirable
for harmonic analysis of a power system. However, power converters are inherently …

Mixed signal circuit design often involves circuits that are time-varying or highly non-linear,
which further results in systems that are difficult to characterize using established …
