Analisi dinamica e a regime del convertitore Dickson-Charge-Pump

I circuti di tipo charge-pump trovano vasto impiego nell'elettronica moderna in quanto offrono un metodo semplice e totalmente integrato per elevare le basse tensioni di alimentazione tipiche dei circuiti digitali e trasformarle nelle alimentazioni adatte al pilotaggio di circuti di programmazione delle memorie, al pilotaggio dei mos di potenza, alla generazione della tensione di riferimento dei VCO nei PLL e in numerose altre applicazioni. Questa tesi studia il circuito charge-pump di Dickson nel suo comportamento sia a regime stazionario sia a regime dinamico. Al fine di aumentare l'efficienza è infatti importante attivare il circuito solo all'occorrenza, prestando attenzione al transitorio di accensione. Ogni aspetto teorico viene verificato per mezzo di simulazioni su LTSpice. Si è quindi potuto constatare che un dimensionamento corretto del numero di stadi ottimizza le prestazioni sia statiche che dinamiche sotto il vincolo di una massima occupazione d'area. L'impiego dei circuiti charge-pump si prevede possa essere sempre più diffuso in futuro, visto il trend verso un maggiore livello di integrazione dei sistemi elettronici e la tendenza ad utilizzare tensioni di alimentazione sempre più basse.

Firn line elevation of the Dickson Land peninsula

The Dickson Land peninsula is located in central West-Spitsbergen between the NNE branches of Isfjorden. The climatic firn line lying at 500 m causes plateau glaciers with outlet tongues which are characteristic of S-Dickson Land. The distribution of valley glaciers and the variations of the orographic firn line depend on wind direction. In comparing the firn lines established by the methods of LICHTENECKER (1938) and VISSER (1938), to the values calculated by the method of v. HÖFER (1879), differences of up to l07 m are found. These differences may depend on the inclination and distance relationships of the glaciers above and below the real firn lines. During the latest glacial advance, Dickson Land was located on the peripheries of two local glaciation centers. At that time an inland glaciation of West-Spitsbergen did not exist . The formation of a subglacial channel system dates back to the maximum extent of the late glacial phase before 17500 B.P, (+2000/-1375 years). A correlation of postglacial stadia and 14C dated marine terraces (FEYLING-HANSSEN & OLSSON, 1960; FEYLING-HANSSEN, 1965) is possible. Considering isostatic movement and the difference between calculated and real firn lines, a postglacial stadium at about 10400 B. P. can be reconstructed with a firn line lying 265 m above former sea level. On average, the absolute depression below the recent firn line amounted to 246 m. Stagnation at 9650 B.P. coincided with a firn line at 315 m above former sea level and a depression of 173 m. Around 1890 A.D., glacial fluctuations corresponded to a firn line at 415 m (depression: 64 m). To some extent the morphology of the main valleys appears to depend on structure and petrography. Therefore their value as indicators of former glaciations is questionable. The periglacial forms are shown on a large-scale map. At the time of the "Holocene warm interval", between 7000 and 2000 B.P. (FEYLING-HANSSEN, 1955a, 1965), an increase of periglacial activity seems likely. This can be explained by a simultaneous increase in the depth of the active layer in both soil and bedrock.
