Abstract
The space environment is characterized with various energetic particles like cosmic rays, cosmic neutrons, alpha particles and heavy ions from solar flares. Nowadays most of the circuits used in space applications are being made of Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS). The technology is scaling down, i.e. reduction in supply voltage and node capacitances lead to decrease of amount of charge stored on a node, which makes the circuit more vulnerable towards particle induced charge. When amount of this particle induced charge is high enough, a transient fault appears like a glitch called as Single Event Transient (SET). As the feature size scales down, the vulnerability of circuits to radiation induced error has also been increased, as this may cause Double Node Upset (DNU) i.e Single Event Double Node Upset (SEDU). In this paper, some of the best known designs to mitigate the Single Event Upset as well as Single Event Double Node Upset in 65 nm CMOS technology using standard TSPICE tool has been discussed. The comparison of those designs on the same platform i.e 65 nm technology is presented, their power consumption and propagation delay are also compared.

Continuous Overvoltage Characteristics of Surge Protected Power Strips

Volume 5 Issue 4 September - November 2017 Research Paper Continuous Overvoltage Characteristics of Surge Protected Power Strips Cengiz Polat* Assistant Professor, Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Istanbul University, Istanbul, Turkey. Uzunoglu, C. P. (2017). Continuous Over Voltage Characteristics of Surge Protected Power Strips.  i-manager’s Journal on Circuits and Systems,  5(4), 1-7.  https://doi.org/10.26634/jcir.5.4.13938 Abstract Increasing applications of constantly developing electronic devices require delicate voltage and current protection. Although the electrical network is monitored continuously, undesired over currents and over voltages may occur on the distribution system due to failures. Most of the electronic switch gear is connected via surge protected power strips in indoor applications, where current protection is vital. Surge protected power strips are usually manufactured based on Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs) ...

In this paper, to design a number of D-flip flop performing at the same time, the given clock signal is reduced using multi bit flip-flop. The multi bit flip flop is mainly used to improve the clock power for the given common clock signal and to reduce the switching power. This method is p...

A Review on Control strategies for LFC in Deregulated Scenario

Volume 1 Issue 1 December - February 2013 Review Paper A Review on Control strategies for LFC in Deregulated Scenario T. Anilkumar*, N. Venkata ramana** * Associate Professor, EEE Department, ACE Engineering College, Ghatkesar, Hyderabad, AP, India. ** Professor and Head of Deportment, EEE Department, JNTU Mantini, AP, India.

A Review On Control Strategies For LFC In Deregulated Scenario.  i-manager’s Journal on Circuits and Systems , 1(1), 27-36.  https://doi.org/10.26634/jcir.1.1.2197 Abstract In power system studies, Load frequency control is an important issue to supply sufficient and reliable electric power with good quality. The main objective of LFC is to maintain load frequency and tie-line power flow within permissible limits by adjusting megawatt output of LFC generators, so as to accommodate fluctuating load demands. This paper presents a brief review of different control techniques to researchers on design...
