Project Highlights
Energy-Quality Scalable Low-Noise Amplifier for MedRadio Applications
Medical Device Radiocommunications Service (MedRadio) applications need low-noise amplifiers that can trade gain against DC power consumption depending on the operating scenario; a fixed-gain design either wastes power or compromises sensitivity. Dr. Arjuna designed an energy-quality scalable LNA architecture, built around complementary common-source current-reuse amplifier stages, that operates across five distinct gain/power states through a configurable input matching, inter-stage buffer and gain-varying stage structure. The design is the subject of an issued Malaysian patent.
Dark Current Cancellation for a Colour Sensor IC
Photosensor-based colour sensor ICs accumulate a dark current, a baseline signal present even without incident light, that skews measurement accuracy if left uncorrected. While leading analog and mixed-signal circuit design at Agilent Technologies, Dr. Arjuna developed a dark current cancellation technique for the company's colour sensor IC product line, improving measurement accuracy for consumer appliance applications. The underlying light-integration circuit technique is the subject of an issued US patent.
