    A novel design method for phase-locked loops of any order and type
    (IEEE, 2006) Carlosena García, Alfonso; Mànuel Lázaro, Antonio; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    In this paper a novel approach to the design of PLLs is presented, which can be used regardless of their Order and Type. The method stems from the fact that high-frequency poles in the loop filter determine filtering properties of the PLL, while zeropole (at the origin) pairs determine its Type and thus the loop control dynamics.

    Design of MOS-translinear multiplier/dividers in analog VLSI
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2000) López Martín, Antonio; Carlosena García, Alfonso; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    A general framework for designing current-mode CMOS analog multiplier/divider circuits based on the cascade connection of a geometric-mean circuit and a squarer/ divider is presented. It is shown how both building blocks can be readily obtained from a generic second-order MOS translinear loop. Various implementations are proposed, featuring simplicity, favorable precision and wide dynamic range. They can be successfully employed in a wide range of analog VLSI processing tasks. Experimental results of two versions, based on stacked and folded MOS-translinear loops and fabricated in a 2.4-1am CMOS process, are provided in order to verify the correctness of the proposed approach.

    Glottal spectrum based inverse filtering
    (ISCA, 2003) Arroabarren Alemán, Ixone; Carlosena García, Alfonso; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    In this paper a new inverse filtering technique for the time-domain estimation of the glottal excitation is presented. This approach uses the DAP modeling for the vocal tract characterization, and a spectral model for the derivative of the glottal flow. This spectral model is based on the spectrum of the KLGLOTT88 model for the glottal source. The proposed procedure removes the glottal source from the spectrum of the speech signal in an accurate manner, particularly for highpitched signals and singing voice, and the estimated glottal waveforms present less amount of formant ripple.

    AC coupled amplifier with a resistance multiplier technique for ultra-low frequency operation
    (Elsevier, 2022) Martincorena Arraiza, Maite; Cruz Blas, Carlos Aristóteles de la; Carlosena García, Alfonso; López Martín, Antonio; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    This paper proposes a novel, tunable AC coupled capacitive feedback amplifier, exhibiting an ultra-low high pass corner frequency. This is accomplished by actively boosting the output resistive value of a MOS transistor in weak inversion. The circuit is based on a more general architecture, recently proposed by the authors, and is analyzed in terms of its capability to achieve ultra-low frequency operation, its DC performance, and noise. The proposed technique is demonstrated via measurement results from a fabricated test chip prototype using a standard 0.18 µm CMOS technology. The proposed amplifier provides a tunable high pass corner frequency from 20 mHz to 475 mHz, consuming 4.71 μW and a total area of 0.069 mm2.

    Micropower class AB low-pass analog filter based on the super-source follower
    (IEEE, 2022) Martincorena Arraiza, Maite; Cruz Blas, Carlos Aristóteles de la; López Martín, Antonio; Carlosena García, Alfonso; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC
    An improved class AB version of the super source follower is used to implement a compact and power-efficient second order analog low-pass filter. The proposed circuit achieves a 41% power reduction as well as an improvement in linearity and pass band gain with respect to its class A counterpart. Measurement results of a test chip prototype fabricated in a 180 nm CMOS technology show a power consumption ranging from 50.3 μW to 85.27 μW for cutoff frequencies from 600 kHz to 890 kHz, with a supply voltage of ±0.75 V. A third order intermodulation distortion of −35.34 dB (for an input signal of 0.4 mV pp and 350 kHz) and a THD of −69.7 dB (for an input signal of 0.4 mV pp and 100 kHz) are measured, which results in an improvement with respect to the conventional class A version of 13.98 dB and 43.6 dB, respectively. The silicon area is 0.0592 mm 2 (using external capacitors).

    Dataset for the identification of a ultra-low frequency multidirectional energy harvester for wind turbines
    (Elsevier, 2024-11-20) Bacaicoa Díaz, Julen; Hualde Otamendi, Mikel; Merino Olagüe, Mikel; Plaza Puértolas, Aitor; Iriarte Goñi, Xabier; Castellano Aldave, Jesús Carlos; Carlosena García, Alfonso; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoa eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritza; Ingeniería; Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    This paper presents a publicly available dataset designed to support the identification (characterization) and performance optimization of an ultra-low-frequency multidirectional vibration energy harvester. The dataset includes detailed measurements from experiments performed to fully characterize its dynamic behaviour. The experimental data encompasses both input (acceleration)-output (energy) relationships, as well as internal system dynamics, measured using a synchronized image processing and signal acquisition system. In addition to the raw input-output data, the dataset also provides post-processed information, such as the angular positions of the moving masses, their velocities and accelerations, derived from recorded high-speed videos at 240 Hz. The dataset also includes the measured power output generated in the coils. This dataset is intended to enable further research on vibration energy harvesters by providing experimental data for identification, model validation, and performance optimization, particularly in the context of energy harvesting in low-frequency and multidirectional environments, such as those encountered in wind turbines.
