This article designs a 14-bit successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter(SAR ADC).A novel digital bubble sorting calibration method is proposed and applied to eliminate the effect of capacitor mismatch on the linearity of the SAR ADC. To reduce the number of capacitors, a hybrid architecture of a high 8-bit binary-weighted capacitor array and a low 6-bit resistor array is adopted by the digital-to-analog(DAC). The common-mode voltage VCM-based switching scheme is chosen to reduce the switching energy and area of the DAC. The time-domain comparator is employed to obtain lower power consumption. Sampling is performed through a gate voltage bootstrapped switch to reduce the nonlinear errors introduced when sampling the input signal. Moreover, the SAR logic and the whole calibration is totally implemented on-chip through digital integrated circuit(IC) tools such as design compiler, IC compiler, etc. Finally, a prototype is designed and implemented using 0.18 μm bipolar-complementary metal oxide semiconductor(CMOS)-double-diffused MOS 1.8 V CMOS technology. The measurement results show that the SAR ADC with on-chip bubble sorting calibration method achieves the signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio of 69.75 dB and the spurious-free dynamic range of 83.77 dB.

In the space plasma environment, primary discharge may occur on the solar array and evolve into a destructive sustained arc, which threatens the safe operation of the spacecraft. Based on the plasma expansion fluid theory, a new multicomponent plasma expansion model is proposed in this study, which takes into account the effects of ion species, ion number, initial discharge current, and Low Earth Orbit(LEO) plasma environment. The expansion simulation of single-component and multicomponent ions is carried out respectively, and the variations of plasma number density, expansion distance, and speed during the expansion process are *** with the experimental results, the evolution of propagation distance and speed is closed and the error is within a reasonable range, which verifies the validity and rationality of the model. The propagation characteristics of the primary discharge on the solar array surface and the influence of the initial value on the maximum propagation distance and the propagation current peaks are investigated. This study can provide important theoretical support for the propagation and evolution of the primary discharge and the key behavior of the transition to secondary discharge on spacecraft solar array.

Inconsistency is an inevitable issue in the battery packs of electric vehicles, which can lead to reduced system performance and increased security risks. Equalization is an effective measure to improve pack consistency. However, the passive equalization has the disadvantage of wasting energy. To address this issue, this work proposes an active equalization scheme for battery packs based on dynamic route planning. Specifically, an active equalization topology is proposed based on flexible reconfiguration, which allows for the connection of any cells in series and avoids the access of faulty cells. The equalization topology is abstracted into a directed graph, reducing the complexity of circuit analysis. A strategy based on the Dijkstra algorithm is developed to search for the longest and shortest energy paths to guide battery equalization control. The hardware-in-the-loop experiment is conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed equalization scheme. Compared to C2C switched capacitor, C2C double tuned capacitor, and C2C star structure schemes, the proposed scheme with 6 cells reduces by approximately 72.88%, 48.61%, and 54.61% in the voltage standard deviation, respectively. In terms of voltage range, the proposed scheme reduces by approximately 61.02%, 31.14%, and 51.32% compared to C2C switched capacitor, C2C double tuned capacitor, and C2C star structure schemes. When considering a switch loss factor of 0.9 to 0.1, the energy loss decreases by about 0.33%. IEEE
