Design and Analysis of Low Power Level Shifter in IC Applications

Abstract

In this paper, level Shifter circuit is analyzed which is efficient for converting low-voltage digital input signal into high-voltage digital output signal. The circuit has a diagnostic current generation device by using a logic error correction circuit that work by identifying the input and output logic level .When input signal changes, circuit produce low power operation only because it can dissipate power at the operating current. For the comparative analysis of this error correction Level Shifter different methodologies are used which named as biasing for the level Shifter. Result shows that the circuit converts a 0.4-V input signal to 3-V output signal. Simulation results are carried out by using 0.35μm CMOS technology. Power dissipation is 34nW for a 0.4V at 10 kHz input pulse. General TermsLow power design, leakage power, power dissipation, delay.

Fabrication and Microstructure Study of Aluminum Matrix Composites Reinforced with SiC and B₄C Particulates

“…The most commonly adopted method for composite fabrication is the conventional stir casting approach as it enables to produce complex shapes and is also economical as compared to other techniques. Due to these merits, the authors used stir casting process to fabricate composites with varying wt % of reinforcement.Among all the available reinforcement materials, SiC has been used abruptly because of its ability to form competent bonding with molten aluminum along with other advantages like excellent thermal conductivity, machinability and low cost [6]. High cost of B 4 C has restricted its use as reinforcement material to some extent, though it has significant properties like high hardness with low density and high stiffness [6].…”

Owing to this, SiC and B 4 C were selected as reinforcements in the present study with base material AA6082-T6.…”
