A modified band-gap circuit capable of producing programmable output differential reference voltage is described. Analysis of the effects of the amplifier noise and offset on the reference voltage is performed, obtaining a compact formula of …
A low-power, low voltage capacitance to pulse duration converter with intrinsic low sensitivity to temperature and parasitic capacitances is presented. The circuit uses a dual clock chopper modulation, which significantly lowers the effects of device…
The beam alignment requirements for the next generation of lepton colliders have become increasingly challenging. As an example, the alignment requirements for the three major collider components of the CLIC linear collider are as follows.…
PACMAN, a study on Particle Accelerator Components' Metrology and Alignment to the Nanometre scale, is an Innovative Doctoral Program, funded by the European Commission, hosted by CERN. The objective is to propose new methods allowing…
The CLIC project, currently under study at CERN is an electron-positron collider at 3 TeV centre-of-mass energy and luminosity of 2*1034 cm-2s−1. Achieving such luminosity requires a beam dimension of 1 nm in the vertical…
