A 900-MHz, 3.5-mW, 8-bit Pipelined Subranging ADC Combining Flash ADC and TDC Abstract-In this paper, we propose a time-based analog-to digital converter (ADC) architecture combining a ?ash ADC and vernier time-to-digital converter (TDC) to achieve both high speed and high resolution. The ?ash ADC and vernier TDC are pipelined to increase the conversion speed. A…
A Balanced-to-Unbalanced Microstrip Power Divider With Filtering Function Abstract? A balanced-to-unbalanced microstrip power divider based on branch lines with several stubs and one resistor is proposed. The functions of power dividing, frequency selectivity, isolation between output ports, and common-mode suppression can be realized at the same time. The even?odd-mode equivalent circuits combining with the standard…
A Bayesian Bounded Asymmetric Mixture Model With Segmentation Application Abstract? Segmentation of a medical image based on the modeling and estimation of the tissue intensity probability density functions via a Gaussian mixture model has recently received great attention. However, the Gaussian distribution is unbounded and symmetrical around its mean. This study presents a new bounded…
A Bidirectional Three-level LLC Resonant Converter with PWAM Control Abstract? A bidirectional three-level LLC resonant converter with a new pulse width and amplitude modulation < PWAM > control method. With different control signals, it has three different operation modes with different voltage gains. Therefore, it can achieve wide voltage gain range by switching among these…
A Block-Mean Difference Based Sorting Scheme on Lossy Partail Distortion Search for Fast Optimal Motion Estimation Abstract? This work presents an efficient lossy partial distortion search (PDS) algorithm named adaptive mean difference based partial distortion search (A-MDPDS). The proposed A-MDPDS algorithm reduces computations by using a halfway-stop technique in the calculation of block distortion…
A Bottom-Up Approach for Pancreas Segmentation Using Cascaded Superpixels and (Deep) Image Patch Labeling Abstract? Robust organ segmentation is a prerequisite for computer-aided diagnosis, quantitative imaging analysis, pathology detection, and surgical assistance. For organs with high anatomical variability (e.g., the pancreas), previous segmentation approaches report low accuracies, compared with well-studied organs, such as the liver…
A Capacitor Voltage-Balancing Method for Nested Neutral Point Clamped (NNPC) Inverter Abstract?A capacitor voltage-balancing method for a nested neutral point clamped (NNPC) inverter is proposed in this pa-per. The NNPC inverter is a newly developed four-level voltage-source inverter for medium-voltage applications with properties such as operating over a wide range of voltages (2.4?7.2 kV) with-out…
