Keeping the best audio quality in mobile phone by managing voltage drops created by 217 Hz transients
M.Maurel

Source of major noise Whatever the protocol used by a mobile phone, GSM or TDMA, RF transmitter switching creates the most notorious noise for the power supply. The RF power amplifier switches on and off at a rate of 217 Hz. At each of these events, a high current (up to 1.7A) is drawn from […]

Yield prediction in an automotive MEMS application with help of statistical analysis packages SAE J2748
4. ASIM Workshop, Wismar, ISBN 9783901608339, P. 251-256
D.Dammers, D.Schollän, L.M.Voßkämper

Abstract This paper shows a methodology for the yield prediction of Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS). Variations of process properties during the production of MEMS are considered in system simulations. Yield prediction based on the distribution functions provided by statistical analysis packages SAE J2748 is demonstrated on a capacity based accelerometer system… Download this press

A current mirror model in Verilog-AMS
Published in the proceedings of the 22th South Symposium on Microelectronics and 1st Symposium AUGM on Microelectronics, Porto Alegre, Brazil.
M.Neumann, P.da Silva, O.Gouveia Filho

Abstract This work presents a model of a simple current mirror implemented in Verilog-AMS language using the circuit simulator Smash. The model is validated through comparisons with simulations made with the ACM model implemented in Smash. Simulations with the current mirror used to bias a Differential CMOS Amplifier is shown in order to illustrate the

From chip to system design using a co-verification environment
Embedded Control Europe Magazine
D.Maure, L.M.Voßkämper

The field of mechatronics encompasses all applications where electrical, electro-mechanical and pure mechanical elements are applied to build up a system with a required functionality. For rapid and reasonably priced development, it is an absolute necessity, along with the construction of prototypes, to simulate all involved components commonly in an efficient way. This is a

Simulation mechatronischer Systeme im Schaltungssimulator – Demonstrator: Festplatte
ASIM Nachrichten
D.Dammers, G.Pelz, L.M.Voßkämper

Kurzfassung Eine Entwicklungskosten reduzierende Simulation kompletter mechatronischer Systeme gewinnt mehr und mehr an Bedeutung. Die Beschreibung des mechanischen Verhaltens zusammen mit dem elektrischen und elektronischen Verhalten in einem Simulat o r u mgeht fehleranfällige Simulatorkopplungen. Zur Modellierung von Systemen mit unterschiedlichen Domänen und analogen und digitalen Signalen eignet sich die Hardwarebeschreibungssprache VHDL-AMS hervorragend. Die Erstellung
