Linear time-invariant (LTI) phase noise theories provide important qualitative design insights
but are limited in their quantitative predictive power. Part of the difficulty is that device noise …

A 1.5-GHz low noise amplifier (LNA), intended for use in a global positioning system (GPS)
receiver, has been implemented in a standard 0.6-/spl mu/m CMOS process. The amplifier …

The evaluation of acute chest pain remains challenging, despite many insights and innovations
over the past two decades. The percentage of patients who present at the emergency …

This book, first published in 2004, is an expanded and thoroughly revised edition of Tom
Lee's acclaimed guide to the design of gigahertz RF integrated circuits. A new chapter on the …

A general model is introduced which is capable of making accurate, quantitative predictions
about the phase noise of different types of electrical oscillators by acknowledging the true …

An analysis of phase noise in differential cross-coupled inductance-capacitance (LC)
oscillators is presented. The effect of tail current and tank power dissipation on the voltage …

In the last 20 years, serum enzyme and isoenzyme levels have become the final arbiters by
which acute myocardial infarction is diagnosed or excluded. We review the characteristics of …

Background—Cardiac complications are important causes of morbidity after noncardiac
surgery. The purpose of this prospective cohort study was to develop and validate an index for …

We present several new simple and accurate expressions for the DC inductance of square,
hexagonal, octagonal, and circular spiral inductors. We evaluate the accuracy of our …

In health care, the days of business as usual are over. Around the world, every health care
system is struggling with rising costs and uneven quality despite the hard work of well-…
