In this study, a fully integrated electroencephalogram/functional near-infrared spectroscopy (EEG/fNIRS) brain monitoring system was designed to fulfill the demand for a miniaturized, light-weight, low-power-consumption, and low-cost brain monitoring system as a potential tool with which to screen for brain diseases. The system is based on the ADS1298IPAG Analog Front-End (AFE) and can simultaneously acquire two-channel EEG signals with a sampling rate of 250 SPS and six-channel fNIRS signals with a sampling rate of 8 SPS. AFE is controlled by Teensy 3.2 and powered by a lithium polymer battery connected to two protection circuits and regulators. The acquired EEG and fNIRS signals are monitored and stored using a Graphical User Interface (GUI). The system was evaluated by implementing several tests to verify its ability to simultaneously acquire EEG and fNIRS signals. The implemented system can acquire EEG and fNIRS signals with a CMRR of −115 dB, power consumption of 0.75 mW/ch, system weight of 70.5 g, probe weight of 3.1 g, and a total cost of USD 130. The results proved that this system can be qualified as a low-cost, light-weight, low-power-consumption, and fully integrated EEG/fNIRS brain monitoring system.

In order to process and analyze the signal of frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar, a radar semi-physical simulation(RSPS) system based on STM32F103VE6 chip is designed in this paper. By designing the hardware and software of system, the RSPS system can process the radar signal, detect the target, verify the data process algorithm and display the result on TFT-LCD screen. In addition, the collected data can be uploaded to PC by RS-232 interfaces which improves the reliability, stability and practicability of system. The waveform and spectrum maps are utilized to show the feasibility of RSPS system in analysing FMCW radar signal. Experimental results show that this system has many advantages, such as multifunction, low power consumption and low cost.

As a major indicator of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) in clinical diagnosis, the monitoring of sleep apnea plays an important role in medical treatments of modern society. This paper proposes a portable sleep apnea monitoring system, which is of high-precision and low-power consumption, and capable of performing the long-term monitoring of OSAS patients multiple physiological parameters in clinical treatments. In the system, the AC modulated detection is adopted, and low amplification ratios are utilized in forestage and a high-resolution AD converter is designed in post-stages. Thus, it is able to acquire, analyze, and process physiological signals in real-time. In addition, ultralow-power chips are used in control system to save the power consumption. The experimental results show that our monitoring system has the strengths of high stability, low-power consumption (peak current90mA), and strong anti-interference ability, which demonstrates the potential in practical applications.

Wireless technology has walked into the People's Daily life, Bluetooth technology comes to the fore in so many wireless technologies with its low power consumption, low cost and other characteristics. Bluetooth technology is used widely, we can see it in mobile phones or in our cars, it seems that Bluetooth technology has penetrated into every aspect of our lives. Even so, the combination of Bluetooth technology and fixed telephone still has a very big development space. If the stability of the fixed telephone combined with the flexible of Bluetooth technology, it will give the life of people a lot of convenience. This paper will introduces the Bluetooth hands free system for fixed telephone, it is such a product that it will make Bluetooth technology and common fixed phone combined, and make it a reality that people can use common Bluetooth headset to answer or call a fixed telephone.

This paper presents a fully integrated CMOS Operational Floating Current Conveyor (OFCC) circuit. The proposed circuit is designed for instrumentation amplifier circuits. The CMOS OFCC circuit is designed and simulated using Cadence in TSMC 90 m technology kit. The circuit aims at two different design goals. The first goal is to design a low power consumption circuit (LBW design) while the second is to design a high bandwidth circuit (HBW design). The total power consumption of the LBW design is 1.26 mW with 30 MHz bandwidth while the power consumption of the HBW design is 3 mW with 104.6 MHz bandwidth.
