Design and Implementation of a Pulse Transformer and Study on Ageing of Oil impregnated Paper under Pulsed Stresses

Energy consumption keeps increasing, and more than three-quarters of the EU’s green-house gas emissions stem from it. Hence, it is important to reduce or stop burning fossil fuels to limit the temperature rise to 1.5∘C according to the Paris agreement target. Nowadays, renewable energy sources and distributed generation are increasingly...

An IR-UWB pulse generator based on switched capacitors RF-DAC

This is an IR-UWB pulse generator design, which is based a switched-capacitor RF-DAC. This chip is taped out by Global Foundries 40nm CMOS LP process.

LC Ladder Based Orthonormal Filter for Impulse-Radio UWB Pulse Generation.

In this thesis, a UWB pulse generator is designed to be implemented in IBM 0.13 um technology. The pulse generator has a high spectral efficiency. Using amplitude control, any mismatch, process variation or temperature variation can be compensated for to comply with the UWB FCC mask. The pulse has an approximate duration of 2ns. The current...
