This online tool allows you to estimate how much energy and power you can generate at a given location with photovoltaic solar panels. NREL's PVWatts Calculator This section is regarding how you are treated by the electric utility company in Ohio Frequently Asked Questions > "Renewable energies" Is Net-metering available where Read more…
I was looking for a way I could plot the output frequency of a ring oscillator versus an input tuning voltage. I did not find anything easy and fast in the literature but I think PSS is the key for the more formal methods. PSS = Periodic Steady State. Read more…
Note the 500M Ohm resistor is only to test the current reference.  It would be replaced by your application circuit.

Getting Monte Carlo analysis to work on Cadence can be a bit of a puzzle given how Cadence is a ball of various software tools stuck together with spit. You have have seen the following intermodal nastygram: Research Links ReadMeMonteCarlo.txt SPICEModelsAndSimulations_13.pdf

When reading about charge pumps you will encounter a phrase like "they act like resistors". The following example demonstrates why they say that. So each capacitor ends up with 1/2 Volt on it. That means the system starts with 1/2 Joule of energy and when the transfer of charge is done Read more…
