Abstract
Work presented in this paper is fuzzy logic based Water Heater Demand Controller considering the consumer preferences and desires. A fuzzy controlled intelligent system is proposed, which conserves the electrical energy in case of water heating solutions. In modern days, consumers demand more pricing and usage operations making load management programs increasingly prevalent. A methodology is proposed to reduce the usage of the electrical energy based on needs and comfort. Thereby, the demand on the power system can be reduced during peak hours with the help of load management programs. The most popular load management program is End-Use Equipment Control. It is also called as Direct Load Control. DLC is used to shape the load curve by cycling consumer's large current drawing appliance, like water heaters. This paper presents the application of DSM techniques to Water Heater Demand Controller to limit the power consumption based on consumer choice and satisfaction. Results presented are to show the effectiveness of the proposed intelligent water heater demand controller to minimize the energy consumption, reduce the energy bill and satisfy consumer needs based on environmental conditions/seasons.

Design and Implementation of Low Power ALU Using 8T Full Adder with FinFETs

Volume 5 Issue 4 September - November 2017 Research Paper Design and Implementation of Low Power ALU Using 8T Full Adder with FinFETs M. Chandra Sekhar Reddy*, P. Ramana Reddy** * Research Scholar, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, JNTUA, Anantapuramu, Andhra Pradesh, India. ** Professor, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, JNTUACEA, Anantapuramu, Andhra Pradesh, India. Reddy, M. C. S., and Reddy, P. R. (2017). Design and Implementation of Low Power ALU Using 8T Full Adder with FINFETS.  i-manager’s Journal on Circuits and Systems , 5(4), 8-14.  https://doi.org/10.26634/jcir.5.4.13939 Abstract An Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU) is an advanced circuit that performs number-crunching and rationale operations. ALU is an essential building piece of the focal preparing unit of a PC. The power, devoured by the ALU has a direct effect on the power disseminated from the processor. Thus, a plan is required to execute the ...

Power Efficient Functional Units For High Speed Computations.  i-manager’s Journal on Circuits and Systems , 1(3), 13-18.  https://doi.org/10.26634/jcir.1.3.2443 Abstract Power consumed per unit switching activity in a CMOS based computational unit is greatly dependent on the power consumption of the sum and carry generation units. This paper is focussed on reducing area and PDP of the computational units through gate level and transistor level optimisation. At transistor level 6T Mux based CMOS-CPL XOR gates with stable rise and fall times ar...
