Two novel electronic-tunable waveform generators using a single dual-current output operational transconductance amplifier (DO-OTA) with a few passive components are proposed in this paper. The first one can produce symmetrical square and triangular waveforms simultaneously. Based on the first topology, an additional N-MOS is adopted as a switching element to construct the second proposed circuit, which can generate a pulse waveform by a negative triggering signal. The repetitive frequency and pulse width of the presented circuits are adjustable by external passive components. Moreover, the output levels of the proposed circuits can be controlled by the DO-OTA's bias currents. These waveform generators feature more compact configurations compared to the existing designs. Experimental results are close to the theoretical analyses.

AbstractThis study investigated four electrolytes (tap water, mineral water, seawater, and Al2O3 nanoparticles emulsified in deionized water) to prepare nanofluids for enhancing their microgeneration and heattransfer capabilities by conducting thermoelectric performance experiments on power generation facilities. This study first performed a two-step synthesis process by using emulsion-ultrasonic technology for fabricating an Al2O3 nanofluid to determine the optimal suspended stability for the alumina nanofluid used as an electrolyte according to the Zeta potential, pH value, thermal conductivity, and viscosity. The alumina nanofluid was then compared with the other aqueous solutions to determine the characteristics of the effects of the output currents, voltages, resistances, and temperature distributions at different operating temperatures, distances, and electrode areas. Finally, the emulsifying effect of the alumina nanofluid between 0 wt % and 2 wt % demonstrated the most favorable stability, particle fraction, thermal conductivity, and stable current output.

With the rapid development of the electro-hydraulic servo control technology, the application of electro-hydraulic servo valve has become more and more widely. Servo amplifier is an important part of the electro-hydraulic servo control system to drive and control servo valve. This essay introduces the principle and the function of servo-amplifier, and designs a servo amplifier with the functions of proportional amplifier, zero adjustment, feedback and current limitation. The performance analysis and validation for the servo amplifier are carried out by using simulation software EDA .On the basis of the simulation, the servo amplifier is fabricated, and its performance is tested. The results indicate that the servo amplifier has features of stable current output, good linearity, rapid response, and fully meet designing requirements.

A new current-mode sinusoidal oscillator employing a single voltage differencing transconductance amplifier (VDTA), two grounded capacitors, and one grounded resistor has been proposed. The proposed sinusoidal oscillator offers the following advantageous features: (i) use of grounded capacitors which are attractive from the view point of IC implementation as well as eliminating/accommodating parasitic capacitances, (ii) independent control of frequency of oscillation and condition of oscillation, (iii) ready availability of explicit current-mode output, (iv) low active and passive sensitivities, and (v) a very good frequency stability. The workability of the proposed configuration has been established by PSPICE simulations.

In this work, a high-performance voltage and current output instrumentation amplifier circuit is proposed. The proposed circuit also has voltage-mode (VM) and transadmittance-mode (TAM) outputs at a time. It employs a single current backward transconductance amplifier (CBTA) and a grounded resistor. It has the advantage of having low input and high output impedances which makes it easy for cascadability. The presented circuit has electronically tunable property due to the bias current of the CBTA. The validity of the proposed circuit is demonstrated by PSPICE simulations using a 0.18[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m CMOS process with [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]V supply voltage. Simulation results show that the proposed circuit has a high common mode rejection ratio (CMRR), wide bandwidth, low offset and high gain properties.

The auto-disturbance-rejection-controller (ADRC) is a new control theory that doesn’t need the exact object model. The variation of load resistance is observed and estimated by an extended state observer, which is the core of the ADRC. It is known to all that t-he output power of wind turbine is direct ration to the third power of wind speed; hence the flywheel is introduced to keep the stable current output. The system is composed by the permanent magnetism synchronized generator wind turbine and the permanent magnetism synchronized generator flywheel. The control system is nonlinear, the nonlinear parts of the system can be considered as the disturbance which is estimated by an additional state. The Matlab simulink software and lab system have been carried out and the results confirm the robustness of the ADRC.

There is great interest in improving the brightness of electron sources and therefore the ability of electron optical instrumentation to probe the properties of materials. Extensive work by Dr. Crew and others has provided extremely high brightness sources for certain kinds of analytical problems but which pose serious difficulties in other problems. These sources cannot survive in conventional system vacuums. If one wishes to gather information from the other signal channels activated by electron beam bombardment it is necessary to provide sufficient current to allow an acceptable signal-to-noise ratio. It is possible through careful design to provide a high brightness field emission source which has the capability of providing high currents as well as high current densities to a specimen. In this paper we describe an electrode to provide long-lived stable current in field emission sources.The source geometry was based upon the results of extensive computer modeling. The design attempted to maximize the total current available at a specimen.
