Electronic Interfaces for Differential Capacitive Sensors (Electronic Materials and Devices)
by Gianluca Barile, Giuseppe Ferri, and Vincenzo Stornelli
In a world where great efforts are spent designing and creating more complex, yet efficient systems, sensing elements and related readout circuits, which constitute an integral part of them, need to be designed fulfilling these constraints, beside the common key parameters, such as high sensitivity, resolution and accuracy. Capacitive sensors and their differential subset provide virtually no energy dissipation, show insensitivity to temperature variations and have the capability to be micromach...

New Topics in Simulation and Modeling of RF Circuits
by Alexandru Gabriel Gheorghe and Professor Florin Constantinescu
The semiconductor industry is a fundamental building block of the new economy, there is no area of modern life untouched by the progress of nanoelectronics. The electronic chip is becoming an ever-increasing portion of system solutions, starting initially from less than 5% in the 1970 microcomputer era, to more than 60% of the final cost of a mobile telephone, 50% of the price of a personal computer (representing nearly 100% of the functionalities) and 30% of the price of a monitor in the early...
Charge Density and Structural Characterization of Thermoelectric Materials (Materials Research Foundations, #1)
by R. Saravanan

RF CMOS Oscillators for Modern Wireless Applications (River Publishers Series in Circuits and Systems)
While mobile phones enjoy the largest production volume ever of any consumer electronics products, the demands they place on radio-frequency (RF) transceivers are particularly aggressive, especially on integration with digital processors, low area, low power consumption, while being robust against process-voltage-temperature variations. Since mobile terminals inherently operate on batteries, their power budget is severely constrained. To keep up with the ever increasing data-rate, an ever-decrea...
Low Power Circuit Design Using Advanced CMOS Technology (Tutorials in Circuits and Systems)
Low Power Circuit Design Using Advanced CMOS Technology is a summary of lectures from the first Advanced CMOS Technology Summer School (ACTS) 2017. The slides are selected from the handouts, while the text was edited according to the lecturers talk. ACTS is a joint activity supported by the IEEE Circuit and System Society (CASS) and the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society (SSCS). The goal of the school is to provide society members as well researchers and engineers from industry the opportunity t...
The final microstructures of materials are often obtained by transformation in the solid state. A tight control of the relevant processes is vital for a material with optimal properties, and thus for the efficient large--scale production of industrial components. In this book, based on the recent EUROMAT symposium, the most important phenomena will be treated and new directions of research outlined. The main subjects are: Modelling precipitation, eutectoid transformation and theory of TTT/ CT cu...
Predicting Failures and Measuring Remaining Equipment Life on Highly Reliable Aerospace Equipment

The Launch and On-Orbit Operations of Boeing's GPS Satellites
by Len Losik Ph D
The increasing demand for more content, services, and security drives the development of high-speed wireless technologies, optical communication, automotive radar, imaging and sensing systems and many other mm-wave and THz applications. S-parameter measurement at mm-wave and sub-mm wave frequencies plays a crucial role in the modern IC design debug. Most importantly, however, is the step of device characterization for development and optimization of device model parameters for new technologies....
