This paper presents a functional compiler for the automatic design of Direct Digital Frequency Synthesizer (DDFS) integrated circuits (ICs) using a ROM based table look-up architecture. The compiler allows the user to specify high-level specifications such as the acceptable spurious response and it generates the IC architecture, floorplan, and layout. To construct the layout for different specifications, a library of parameterized macrocells has been developed in 1.2 m CMOS technology.A test chip with a quadrature DDFS module has been generated, using the compiler, and fabricated. The chip has two input signals: one is for frequency control while the other is for phase initialization. Input and output word lengths are 16 bits and 6 bits respectively. The chip complexity is approximately 12,000 transistors (DDFS core) and the die size is 4.8×2.9mm2. A maximum sample rate of 80 MHz has been attained implying a maximum sine (cosine) output frequency of 40 MHz and a frequency resolution of 1.22 kHz. The maximum spurious level measured is –46 dB. 相似文献
Shear viscosity measurements with a precision of 0.05% are reported for3He and4He along near-critical isochores 0.85c<1.12, where c is the critical density. The temperature range was –10–4<<1, where =(T – Tc)/Tc is the reduced temperature. The experiments were carried out with a torsional oscillator operating at 158 Hz, driven at resonance in a phase-locked loop. The absolute value of the viscosity was obtained by calibration at the superfluid transition of4He, based on published values and from direct calculations using the free decay time constant of the oscillations. The data are analyzed in terms of a model using the recent mode-coupling (MC) expressions by Olchowy and Sengers, and where account is taken of the earth's gravity effects. The theory could be fitted very well to the experiment with a single free parameter, the cutoff wave numberqD, which was found to be 3.0×106 and 7.0×106 cm–1 for3He and4He, respectively. We have used for the critical exponent the MC predicted value of z=0.054, which permits a fit superior to that using z=0.064 predicted by dynamic renormalization group (DRG) theories. Detailed comparisons are made between the model calculations and data for various isochores and isotherms and good agreement is obtained. The effects of gravity are described in some detail. The predicted frequency effect in viscosity measurements is calculated for3He and is shown to be obscured by gravity effects. Using the Olchowy-Sengers formulas, we have also fitted the MC theory to the critical thermal conductivity data of3He, again withqD as the only free parameter. This fit gaveqD=6 × 107 cm–1, which in the ideal situation should have been the same asqD from viscosity. We also discuss a representation of the3He viscosity data along the critical isochore by a power law and first correction-to-scaling erm. Using the viscosity and the critical conductivity data for3He, we have calculated the dynamic amplitude ratio and obtained =1.05±0.10, in agreement with predictions from MC and DRG theories. Also, agrees with data of classical fluids. Finally, a comparison is made of recent shear viscosity data for CO2 by Bruschi and Torzo with those on He. The CO2 data are also analyzed in terms of the MC theory, and the discrepancies are discussed. In the Appendices, we present the results of new compressibility measurements on3He along the critical isochore, as used in the MC analysis. We also present a brief analysis of the fluid hydrodynamics in the torsional oscillator leading to relations for the viscosity as a function of the measured quantities. Finally, we give a short outline of the vertical density profile calculations from the earth's gravity field for the calculations of the viscosity nearTc. 相似文献
A simple and mathematically tractable model of a nonstationary process is developed.The process is the sum of waves where the parameters of the waves are random. Explicit expressions for the mean and autocorrelation function at each position as a function of time are obtained.In the case of infinite time, the model evolves into a stationary process. The time-frequency distribution at each position is also obtained. An explicit example is given where the initial waves are Gaussian. The case where there is dispersion in the propagation is also discussed. 相似文献
The severe acute respiratory syndrome – coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the infectious agent responsible for COVID-19 – has caused more than 2.5 million deaths worldwide and triggered a global pandemic. Even with successful vaccines being delivered, there is an urgent need for novel treatments to combat SARS-CoV-2, and other emerging viral diseases. While several organic small molecule drug candidates are in development, some effort has also been devoted towards the application of metal complexes as potential antiviral agents against SARS-CoV-2. Herein, the metal complexes that have been reported to show antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 or one of its target proteins are described and their proposed mechanisms of action are discussed. 相似文献
Summary: Compacted fiber composites offer unique properties due to their lack of an extraneous matrix. The conditions of processing ultra‐high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers were simulated in a heated pressure cell. In situ X‐ray diffraction measurements were used to follow the relevant transitions and the changes in the degree of crystallinity during melting and crystallization. The results strongly support the suggestion that the hexagonal crystal phase, in which the chain conformation is extremely mobile on the segmental level, constitutes the physical basis of compaction technologies for processing UHMWPE fibers into a single‐polymer composite. This report suggests that using a pseudo‐phase diagram outlining the occurrence of different phases during slow heating and the degree of crystallinity can provide valuable insight into the technological parameters relevant for optimal processing conditions.

A procedure has been developed which is suitable for the evaluation of particle size distribution in emulsions of modified hop extracts. A Coulter Counter Model A and a Coulter Counter Model B equipped with a Model M Data Converter were used to assess the weight percent distribution of particles smaller than 10 μm in diameter. The influences of electrolyte concentration, length of analysis, and concentration of the hop extract particles were factors affecting the reproducibility of the study. It was found that identical distribution curves could be obtained with either instrument. The Model B Coulter Counter with the Model M Data Converter is preferred since weight fractions are provided directly and lengthy calculation procedures are eliminated. Coincidence correction on particle counts was unnecessary under the controlled conditions of the analysis. 相似文献
