Not All Will Be Saved

Posted by Apostle Lee on March 10, 2024 at 11:13am in Blogs

Greetings in The Mighty Name of Jesus, The Christ!!!

Not All Will Be Saved

John 6:44 KJV

“No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day."

Brothers and Sisters we must, as it is a grievous thing, understand that Not Everyone will be Saved By Grace, this includes Family, Friends and Associates. Each person from a child of accountability to an elder person must First be Drawn to Jesus By The Father. The Second step is that they must of Their Own Free Will, Accepted Jesus as Savior, then Lord. There are no excuses to this policy, no chance after death to come to Jesus.

Jesus said that He did not come to bring Peace, but a Sword and this Sword can and will cut to the marrow of the bone!

Matthew 10:34 KJV

“Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword."

Luke 12:51-53 KJV

"⁵¹ Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division: ⁵² For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three. ⁵³ The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law."

Hebrews 4:12 KJV

“For the word of God [is] quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and [is] a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."

Understand this…that Jesus would desire that all would come to Him, that all would make Him Savior, that all would make Him Lord over Their Lives, this is The Will of The Father, but let us not be ignorant, falling into a Hopeful Trap Of Deception, for each Child, Woman and Man must make a choice and No One can make it for them!

Understand the Seed Sower, that only a fourth of the World will be Saved, that three quarters of the World had a chance but at the end rejected the Free Gift of Salvation that The Father has given to all.

Matthew 13:18-23 KJV

"¹⁸ Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower. ¹⁹ When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth [it] not, then cometh the wicked [one], and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side. ²⁰ But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it; ²¹ Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended. ²² He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful. ²³ But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth [it]; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty."

Jesus does not want you to be ignorant, but to have Understanding that Not Everyone Who Calls Jesus Lord, is truly Their Lord. Jesus said that the only way to The Father was through Him and all those who Do The Will Of The Father will be Saved. There are many among you that will not go to Heaven, that will not sit down at the feast, will not hear, “My Good and Faithful Servant”, with Jesus being Lord.

Some of you have mothers, dads, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends, associates that will be cast into The Lake Of Fire for eternity and there is nothing that YOU can do to prevent it. This is a Fact that we must all face, that we must all understand, for God, that is, The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit do not desire this, it is Not God’s fault if they do not Choose to Live according to The Fathers Will.

Matthew 7:21-23 KJV

"²¹ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. ²² Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? ²³ And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."

1 Timothy 2:3-6 KJV

"³ For this [is] good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; ⁴ Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. ⁵ For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; ⁶ Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time."

Just as you, Brothers and Sisters, have had to make a choice to Accept Jesus, so must everyone alike do the same. Jesus, The Father, The Holy Spirit will not be mocked, for when the day comes that Jesus opens the Lambs Book Of Life, and finds not their name written there in, will be cast into the Lake Of Fire For Eternity. Jesus is the ONLY Savior in preventing this, with a clause of Doing The Fathers Will. No matter how good a person may be, this Judgment will not change.

Revelation 20:11-15 KJV

"¹¹ And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. ¹² And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is [the book] of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. ¹³ And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. ¹⁴ And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. ¹⁵ And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire."

We, Brothers and Sisters are not to be ignorant of this, but have understanding that all will not be saved, but all will face the same Judgment, by Jesus. Let us not grieve for long in this knowledge, but press forward doing The Will Of Father in our lives and through this we might bring Hope to those who are Lost without Jesus. For until a child, woman, man draws their last breath, there is Hope In Jesus!

I want, Jesus wants, you to sit and think on these things, to look at those around you, not to the flesh but to their souls, their spirits, asking yourself, “Are they Written in The Book Of Life…Are they Doing The Fathers Will?”. You may be the Only Light they may see and The Father may use YOU to Draw them to Jesus, make sure of Your Testimony that it is Not a Stumbling Block!!

We all have a Choice and what we do with that Choice is literally Life and Death in Our Choice. The God Head is not going to force anyone, it has to be of Our Own Free Will, it has to be The Free Will of all those around us. I know this is not as many messages of Walking In Obedience, be it is a Sober Message of Reality that we, My Brothers and Sisters must acknowledge and face.

We are to be a Candle burning brightly so that All will have a Choice and that Our Hope is they make the Right Choice!!!

Matthew 5:15 KJV

“Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house."

Luke 11:33 KJV

“No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth [it] in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light."

Amen and Amen!!!

What's That...

Posted by Apostle Lee on March 3, 2024 at 1:00pm in Blogs

Greetings in The Mighty Name of Jesus, The Christ!!!

What’s That…

Brothers and Sisters how do you Live? Do you Trust Jesus and The Holy Spirit with your Entire Life, not just Spiritually, not just Mentally, but also Physically? When we go from Jesus being Savior to Jesus being Lord, things can change that otherwise would not, but in order for you to See, Know and Understand these changes you have to pay attention to What The Holy Spirit Speaks.

Understand this, there are those who Confess that Jesus is Their Lord, but in reality Jesus is ONLY Their Savior or do not know Him at all. So what is the difference, those who look at Jesus as their Savior only never mature, but remain babies and when it comes to the Strong Meat of the Word, they Regurgitate it, Reject it, they are Not Able to get Nourishment. Accepting Jesus as Savior is ONLY the First Step and all of us have went through the Babe Stage, but even as in the Physical, one must go through Growth from a Baby to an Adult to an Elderly person, in the Spiritual Realm it is no different for the most part.

There is a Scripture that everyone has access to, have read, but many Do Not Understand it. It seems like a very simple Scripture, but there is a Rule to the Scripture that comes with Maturity.

Luke 8:17 KJV

"For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither [any thing] hid, that shall not be known and come abroad."

This Scripture I Live By each and every day since Jesus, through The Holy Spirit, started Teaching me. The Caveat of this Scripture is the Transformation of Jesus being Savior and Jesus Becoming Lord. When Jesus is Your Lord, then Your Whole Life will change. The things you Say, things you Think, things you Do, people you See, people you Know, even Food You Eat, everything changes, but how?

Romans 12:1-2 KJV

"¹ I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, [which is] your reasonable service. ² And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."

I was Hungry, Thirsty for Jesus in My Life and Sought Jesus with My Whole Heart and Wanted, Desired, His Will, His Life to be My Life. I Studied, I Prayed, I Questioned and then would do it all over again. I Asked that The Word Of God to be Manifested To Me that I may KNOW it is True. Guess what, Jesus did that very thing! It is not that I am special, but it is because I Surrendered My Life To THE WILL OF JESUS, MAKING JESUS LORD!!!

You can look at the following Scriptures as a Maturity Level, from a Lost Person to an Adult In Jesus…

Matthew 13:3-9 KJV

"³ And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow; ⁴ And when he sowed, some [seeds] fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up: ⁵ Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth: ⁶ And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away. ⁷ And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them: ⁸ But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold. ⁹ Who hath ears to hear, let him hear."

I am going to Number the Growth Pattern

Way Side – They Hear about Jesus and Reject Him -- Lost
Stony Places – They Hear about Jesus but did not Accept Him, but did not Reject Him – Baby Lost
Thorns – They Hear about Jesus try in the Flesh to Live Accordingly, but Fail – Teenager Lost
Good Baby – Start to Turn Their Life’s over to Jesus, Start making Him Lord – Baby Born Again (30)
Good Teenager – Starts to have More Understanding in Living For Jesus – Teenager Born Again (60)
Good Adult – Starts Living The Word, Transforming, Who They Are, BECOMING Everything IN Jesus As Lord (100)

Matthew 13:19-23 KJV

“¹⁹ When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth [it] not, then cometh the wicked [one], and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side. ²⁰ But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it; ²¹ Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended. ²² He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful. ²³ But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth [it]; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty."

Before anyone corrects me, yes, the above Scriptures deal with the Lost and Saved, but in my Life time I have seen Baby’s in Jesus that never will mature, as well as Teenagers, even Adults who do not take the next step in making Jesus their Complete Lord Over Their Life.

But this Scripture that I referred to above (Luke 8:17 KJV), I Tested Jesus, I Sought Jesus, I Asked Jesus and when I went the Extra Mile, so did He. Jesus would Reveal things to me in ways that He only could, for me to Learn and to Protect me. When you become an Adult things get a little more challenging, but this Scripture never fails, as with all Scriptures!!

Matthew 7:7-8 KJV

"⁷ Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: ⁸ For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened."

These Scriptures have the Great Commandment attached to them that Tie All Of Your Relationship to Jesus…

Mark 12:29-30 KJV

"²⁹ And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments [is], Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: ³⁰ And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this [is] the first commandment."

I have had Jesus show me things, both physical and spiritual that if I had not been doing these verses, I would have never known. Those who think that just singing songs about Jesus, to just go to a church, just read the bible because it is a goal, to be with people who walk and speak as a godly people, this is NOT Maturity!!! All of these a Lost Person can do!!! But it is all about is a Loving Relationship between You and Jesus, that no matter what Jesus says, you do and in doing His Will, we do The Fathers Will, and in doing this, nothing is Hidden that will not be Revealed to us in God’s Way. But you have to be paying attention, that is, you must be Seeking Jesus Always, In Everything that touches Your Life and then be Obedient to What Jesus Says to do.

John 14:15 KJV

“If ye love me, keep my commandments."

There is no “IF’S”, “BUT’s” in this, if you want to know the Hidden Things that Jesus Knows, then you MUST SEEK Him with All that You ARE!!!

There was one time that my wife was pregnant and we lived in an apartment complex, in the early spring, they had not turned the air-conditioning on as yet. She was overly hot, was suffering in a sense. So we went to a Kmart at the time and was going to buy a fan, there were some that were on sale for a very good price. But we were struggling with money, I did not make much at the time, but this was a great deal. I picked up the fan and The Holy Spirit said “No”, no elaborate statement, no conversation, just “No”, I knew not to buy the fan. I told my wife, she was mad at me, but, I stood my ground in Obeying The Holy Spirit. The next morning, the apartment complex turned the air-conditioning on, if I had Not been Obedient, to What The Lord Jesus knew about, what The Holy Spirit spoke to me, we would have spent money that we needed for other things.

Is Walking in Jesus Will easy, No, it causes a Division between the Physical Realm and the Spiritual Realm. Is this some magical tool that we have, NO, does this work 100% of the time, NO!, Jesus and The Holy Spirit, reveal what concerns me, when I need to know on the bases upon Their Will, Not Mine, but does affect my well being if needed. In other words, not everything is going to be revealed that is hidden, there are things that we must Walk Through in order to Learn, in order to Build Our Relationship WITH Jesus!!!

Also, in revealing things that are hidden might not allows be The Lord Jesus Speaking or The Holy Spirit, but might be in delays, in going the wrong direction, in waking up late and a hundred other things, so do not think that it is always going to be The Holy Spirit saying…, He may not utter a word, but in time will Reveal The Why to that thing that was Hidden in most cases, but not allows, sometimes there will never be an explanation and you must Walk In Faith.

As time becomes more evil, as more people who claim to be a Christian and are not, we need to know, we need to Judge All Things, Seeking Jesus Will to even begin to know what lies ahead, the Hidden Things, that we would not understand nor see, too be able to Walk In Obedience that opens doors. Man and Satan think they control this World and the Hidden things thereof, but, Jesus KNOWS All Things and IS IN CONTROL!

1 Corinthians 1:20 KJV

“Where [is] the wise? where [is] the scribe? where [is] the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?"

Amen and Amen!!!

Unleashing Potential with SoC FPGA Development

Posted by 汤喆 on March 1, 2024 at 5:04am in Blogs

System-on-Chip Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (SoC FPGAs) are semiconductor devices that seamlessly merge programmable logic with dedicated processor cores, often sourced from Arm. This design architecture combines the user-friendly programmability of a processor with the versatile and high-performance characteristics of a programmable logic fabric.

The embedded industry is witnessing a growing demand for processor architectures based on the open-source RISC-V, but there are limited choices for commercially available silicon or hardware. To address this gap and facilitate innovation, a company has introduced the PolarFire SoC Discovery Kit. This development kit, designed to be user-friendly and feature-rich for embedded processing and compute acceleration, aims to make cutting-edge technology more accessible to engineers of various skill levels. The open-source kit includes a quad-core RISC-V application-class processor that supports both Linux® and real-time applications, along with a comprehensive array of peripherals and 95K low-power, high-performance FPGA logic elements. With its full range of features and affordability, this kit enables swift testing of application concepts, firmware application development, as well as programming and debugging of user code.

Apart from conventional sales channels, the PolarFire SoC Discovery Kits will be accessible through a pilot initiative within the Microchip Academic Program in the latter half of 2024. By providing the Discovery Kit at a discounted rate to universities, Microchip is guaranteeing that upcoming engineers have immediate access to cutting-edge technology. This strategy not only enriches the hands-on learning opportunities for students but also synchronizes academic studies with the most recent industry advancements. Microchip's academic program provides tools for educators, researchers, and students globally, aiding universities in integrating advanced technology into their curriculum.

The Discovery Kit is centered around the PolarFire MPFS095T SoC FPGA, featuring an embedded microprocessor subsystem that includes a quad-core, 64-bit CPU cluster based on the RISC-V Instruction Set Architecture (ISA). The extensive L2 memory subsystem is configurable for either performance or deterministic operation and supports an asymmetric multi-processing (AMP) mode. The board is equipped with support for Microchip’s Mi-V ecosystem, a mikroBUS™ expansion header for Click boards™, a 40-pin Raspberry Pi® connector, and a MIPI® video connector. Expansion boards can be managed through protocols like I2C and SPI. The kit includes an embedded FP5 programmer for FPGA fabric programming and debugging, as well as firmware application development.

What is PolarFire SoC FPGA?

PolarFire SoC FPGA represents Microchip's fifth-generation family of non-volatile FPGA devices, leveraging cutting-edge 28 nm non-volatile process technology. These cost-optimized FPGAs are engineered to provide the lowest power consumption within mid-range densities. By integrating the industry's most power-efficient FPGA fabric, a 12.7 Gbps transceiver lane with the lowest power consumption, built-in low-power dual PCI Express Gen2 (EP/RP), and, in specific data security (S) devices, an integrated low-power crypto co-processor, PolarFire FPGAs effectively reduce the overall cost of mid-range FPGAs.

PolarFire FPGAs support operation at both 1.0 V and 1.05 V, allowing end-users to make trade-offs between power consumption and performance to align with the specific requirements of their applications. This document outlines the features of the production PolarFire FPGA, covering extended commercial (0 °C to 100 °C) and industrial (–40 °C to 100 °C) device offerings. Additionally, it includes details about the device offerings tailored for military temperate (–55 °C to 125 °C) grade devices.

Non-Volatile FPGA Fabric

The non-volatile FPGA fabric is constructed using advanced 28 nm low-power non-volatile process technology. Comprising distinct building blocks, the PolarFire FPGA fabric is delineated as follows:

Logic Element

On-chip Memory (LSRAM, μSRAM, sNVM, and μPROM)

Math Block

The configuration cells for FPGA fabric are Single Event Upset (SEU) immune, facilitating the configuration of I/Os and other aspects of the device. Unlike SRAM FPGAs, non-volatile FPGAs eliminate the need for a configuration process, powering up rapidly like an Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) with minimal inrush current. This makes them ideal for root-of-trust first-up functionality in any system.

Logic Element

The 4-input Look-Up Table (LUT) within the logic element can be configured to implement a 4-input combinatorial function or an arithmetic function where the LUT output is XORed with a carry input to generate the sum output. Key features of the logic element include:

A fully permutable 4-input LUT optimized for the lowest power

A dedicated carry chain based on carry look-ahead technique

A separate flip-flop usable independently from the LUT

On-Chip Memory

PolarFire FPGAs incorporate four memory types, allowing designers to optimize for power, functionality, and area. Two are volatile memories:

LSRAM

μSRAM

LSRAMs are 20 Kbit SRAMs with built-in Single Error Correction Double Error Detection (SECDED) and interleaving to prevent multi-bit upsets (MBUs). μSRAMs are small distributed 64 x 12 RAMs, suitable for efficient implementation of small buffers, leaving LSRAM for wider and deeper memories. Non-volatile memories (NVMs) include:

μPROM

sNVM

μPROM, made of SEU-immune FPGA configuration non-volatile cells, is readable at runtime and writable during device programming. sNVM, accessible through system service calls, is readable and writable by the designer's application during runtime. It is an ideal storage location for boot code for soft processors and user keys.

LSRAM

Each LSRAM block consists of 20,480 bits of RAM and supports dual-port and two-port modes. LSRAM configurator in the Libero SoC PolarFire toolset enables automated combining and cascading of several LSRAM blocks into larger memories. LSRAM features include:

Operation at 428 MHz

True dual-port memory

Two-port memory (one dedicated write port and one dedicated read port)

• Data widths of ×1, ×2, ×5, ×10, ×20, ×40, and ×33 with SECDED enabled

• Multi-bit-upset mitigation

• Synchronous operation

• Independent port clocks

• Byte enables

• Registered inputs

• Output registers with separate enables and synchronous resets

• Read enables to conserve power while retaining output data

• Power switch to minimize static power when the LSRAM is not used

• Fast zeroization mode

Math Block

The fundamental unit in digital signal processing algorithms is the multiply-accumulate (MACC) operation, and PolarFire FPGAs incorporate a specialized 18 x 18 MACC block to efficiently implement low-power complex DSP algorithms. This includes applications such as finite impulse response (FIR) filters, infinite impulse response (IIR) filters, and fast Fourier transform (FFT) for filtering and image processing. Adjacent logic elements near the math block allow the construction of an optional 16-word coefficient ROM.

Key features of the math block functionality include:

Operation at 500 MHz

An 18 × 18 two's complement multiplier accumulator with a 48-bit output width

Power-saving pre-adder designed to optimize linear phase FIR filter applications and minimize math block usage

Optional pipelining and dedicated buses for cascading

Dot-product mode specifically for complex multiplies

Posted by 汤喆 on March 1, 2024 at 5:02am in Blogs

The increasing functionality of smartphones and other devices necessitates smaller components capable of supporting high density mounting. Silicon capacitors utilizing thin film semiconductor technology offer greater capacitance within a more compact form factor compared to conventional multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs). Simultaneously, their ability to maintain stable temperature characteristics and exhibit excellent reliability is fueling their widespread adoption across various applications.

Introduction of Silicon Capacitors

Capacitors play a crucial role in electronic circuits, serving a wide range of applications such as storing electric charge, delaying voltage changes, creating resonant circuits, and filtering out unwanted signals. The choice of dielectric material is a pivotal factor that determines the capacitor's characteristics and applications. Other influential factors include packaging and the structure of the plates. Common dielectric materials encompass aluminum and tantalum oxide, ceramic, plastic film, polymer, glass, mica, and paper.

Aluminum or tantalum plate capacitors, featuring oxide dielectric materials, find extensive use in applications requiring high capacitance. These electrolytic capacitors, while providing high capacitance, exhibit drawbacks such as instability, poor tolerances, and performance degradation under conditions of high leakage current or elevated temperatures. Plastic film and paper capacitors are preferred for circuits demanding reliable aging performance, stability, and substantial current carrying capability. Ceramic capacitors are suitable for high frequency applications, although they may show deficiencies in aging performance. Mica and glass capacitors, offering extremely high stability, reliability, and tolerance to high voltages and temperatures, are reserved for specific applications due to their relatively higher cost and are not commonly used in budget friendly devices.

In the realm of high density capacitors, those with silicon based dielectrics like silicon dioxide and silicon nitride excel. Capacitors featuring silicon dielectrics prove ideal for applications requiring exceptional stability, reliability, and resilience to high temperatures. These capacitors, known for their performance characteristics, are particularly well suited for deployment in demanding environments. The following delineates the key strengths and limitations of capacitors with silicon based dielectrics.

The capacitor silicon adopts a trench structure to enhance capacitance per unit area on the substrate. Leveraging miniaturization technology enables precision processing in 1 µm increments, eliminating chipping during external formation and refining dimensional tolerances to within ±10 µm.

Strengths of Silicon Based Dielectrics

High Stability at High Temperature

The performance of the majority of capacitors is notably influenced by exposure to high temperatures. Silicon capacitors, available in various temperature ratings, typically extend up to 250°C. High temperature silicon capacitors prove well suited for a diverse array of demanding applications, including aircraft engine controls, avionics systems, automotive systems, downhole oil exploration systems, and military applications. Notably, silicon capacitors exhibit highly stable capacitance performance concerning both voltage and temperature. While there is a limitation on the maximum capacitance of silicon capacitors, they do not undergo capacitance aging. Furthermore, in contrast to X7R and X8R capacitors, the reliability and capacitance of silicon capacitors remain uncompromised even under DC bias conditions.

High Potential for Miniaturisation

Silicon based dielectrics are commonly employed in the production of high density electronic devices. High density silicon capacitors are typically crafted in ultra deep trenches, showcasing minimal leakage current and a low loss factor. Passive Integration Connective Substrate (PICS) stands out as the prevailing technology for implementing high density capacitors. This technique facilitates the realization of Multi Chip Modules (MCMs) and Chip on Board (COB), contributing to the creation of smaller components with low power consumption. Moreover, PICS enables the integration of multiple fundamental functions into a singular product, thereby aiding in cost reduction during manufacturing. With the incorporation of cutting edge technologies, considerable advancements in volumetric efficiency have been attained. Anticipated growth in demand for high performance and miniaturized components suggests a continued improvement in the volumetric efficiency of silicon capacitors. Remarkably, silicon capacitors with layers thinner than those achieved through Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor (MLCC) technology have already been successfully developed.

Leakage Current Stability at High Temperature

Leakage current, a crucial capacitor parameter, undergoes changes when a capacitor is exposed to elevated temperatures. The dielectric material plays a pivotal role in determining the leakage current of a capacitor. Excessive stress on the dielectric material can substantially elevate the leakage current. The charging voltage and dielectric thickness also exert a minor influence on the capacitor's leakage current. In contrast to numerous high temperature capacitors available in the market, silicon capacitors exhibit noteworthy characteristics in terms of leakage current and temperature. Furthermore, silicon based dielectrics boast impressive insulation resistance, rendering them an unparalleled choice for coupling, blocking, and timing circuits.

Low Failure Rate

Capacitors play a diverse role in electronic circuits, establishing themselves as one of the most prevalent passive components within electronic systems. The reliability of a capacitor is contingent upon its failure rate, and capacitors, in comparison to other passive components, tend to exhibit a relatively higher failure rate. Factors such as operating time and loading conditions play pivotal roles in determining the failure rate of a capacitor. Through comparative reliability tests, it has been demonstrated that high temperature silicon capacitors boast superior FIT (Failure In Time) rates when contrasted with high temperature X8R capacitors.

Limitations of Silicon Based Dielectrics

Limited Maximum Capacitance

While silicon capacitors demonstrate remarkable attributes such as elevated stability at high temperatures, minimal leakage current, high insulation resistance, and dense capacitance, there exists a limitation on the maximum attainable capacitance. Anticipated progress in technology is poised to address this technological constraint. Manufacturers, in addition to refining the fabrication process, are actively investigating alternative dielectrics as potential solutions to overcome the primary technical hurdles associated with silicon based dielectrics.

Charge Leakage

SiO2 is a commonly employed material in the manufacturing of capacitors for microelectronic devices. These capacitors are created by oxidizing silicon and utilizing the resulting oxide as the dielectric material. Because capacitance is directly linked to the area of the dielectric material and inversely proportional to its thickness, manufacturers in the electronic device industry have been reducing both the area and thickness of the dielectric material to achieve miniaturized and high density devices. As the thickness of the SiO2 dielectric film decreases, there is an increase in charge leakage through the dielectric material. Beyond a certain threshold, the capacitor encounters challenges in effectively storing charge due to the heightened leakage problem. Although DRAM manufacturers are adopting deep trenches to mitigate leakage issues, the limitation imposed by dielectric thickness remains a significant obstacle to the miniaturization of microelectronic devices. In addition to refining the implementation process, manufacturers are actively exploring alternative dielectrics as a strategy to overcome this limitation.

The Benefits of Vapor Cryogenic Storage VS Liquid Storage

Posted by 汤喆 on March 1, 2024 at 4:44am in Blogs

When storing biological samples at cryogenic temperatures with liquid nitrogen, two primary options merit consideration. The initial choice involves vapour cryogenic phase storage, while the alternative entails directly placing the samples within the liquid phase of nitrogen.

Liquid nitrogen was initially utilized for cryogenic storage in the 1950s, enabling the preservation of samples at temperatures as low as -196°C. Since then, LN2 has been widely acknowledged as the benchmark for cryogenic storage. When it comes to the prolonged storage of samples below the glass transition point of water (-135°C), a critical threshold at which nearly all biological functions cease, a cryogen such as liquid nitrogen stands out as the sole viable solution.

Originally, the sole method involved immersing sample containers in the liquid phase. However, technological advancements soon introduced dry or vapour phase storage, where samples are stored above the LN2 rather than within it.

Both designs, involving the submersion of samples in the liquid phase or storing them in the vapour phase, continue to be utilized today, each presenting its own set of advantages and disadvantages. Ultimately, the optimal choice depends on the specific needs and requirements of the user.

Storage

This is where the advantages and disadvantages of each solution become most apparent. Both designs have their merits and drawbacks stemming from the distinct interior configurations of the freezers.

Both types of freezers incorporate liquid phase nitrogen. However, in vapour phase freezers, samples are stored in the vapour created above the liquid nitrogen, rather than being directly immersed in it. Some critics previously highlighted limitations in space for vapour phase storage freezers, citing the lower third of the freezer as unusable due to the liquid nitrogen base. It is essential to note that this criticism is outdated, primarily referring to modified liquid phase freezers for nitrogen vapour storage. Modern units specifically designed for this purpose do not typically encounter such storage limitations.

A crucial aspect universally acknowledged in the design of vapour phase cryogenic freezers is the minimization of contamination risk—a significant concern with liquid phase LN2 freezers. Vial explosion, a potential issue in liquid phase storage, is absent in vapour phase storage. This phenomenon can occur when even a single drop of LN2 enters a sample vial, leading to violent explosions upon warming, posing both potential danger and sample loss.

Improper storage in liquid nitrogen raises the risk of sample contamination, especially when valuable samples share storage with potentially infectious ones. Certain contaminants, such as Hepatitis B and Vesicular Stomatitis Virus, maintain high infectivity even when suspended in liquid nitrogen. Reports indicate that Hepatitis B retained infectivity after two years in liquid nitrogen.

Vapour phase LN2 freezers address contamination concerns by storing samples above the LN2, minimizing the risk of transmission through the liquid itself.

Additionally, the potential contamination of the outer layer of containers poses risks during retrieval. Unlike with liquid phase freezers, vapour phase freezers present a lower risk of user contamination or injury from splash-back, as they do not require direct contact with the liquid nitrogen. Ignoring the potential for contamination, LN2 drag out alone can pose a significant threat not only to operators but also to the surrounding area.

Access

Liquid phase LN2 freezers are often preferred for extended sample storage durations, as direct submersion in the liquid is deemed more efficient and reliable over an extended period.

Conversely, freezers designed for vapour storage excel in sample accessibility. Retrieving samples from vapour suspension is notably easier. For instance, the HEco vapour phase freezer facilitates effortless sample access through its lid, offering high storage density without compromising hold time or sample security. The HEco also incorporates an internal carousel, bringing samples to the operator, thereby eliminating the need to struggle with reaching samples at the rear of the freezer—a potential hazard with liquid phase freezers.

Some argue that liquid storage consumes less LN2. However, highly efficient and purpose-built vapour storage freezers, such as the HEco, consume nearly 50 percent less liquid nitrogen than an equivalent capacity liquid storage freezer.

Temperature Control

While researchers were historically constrained in temperature control options, the introduction of vapour phase freezers has significantly enhanced temperature adjustment effectiveness.

Operators have harbored skepticism concerning temperature uniformity in vapour phase freezers, particularly in earlier versions that exhibited significant temperature variations between the top and bottom of the freezer. However, contemporary vapour phase freezers have addressed these initial challenges, with current models proficiently maintaining a temperature of -190°C in the top compartment. This achievement is noteworthy, especially when considering that modern vapour phase freezers, such as the HEco, can sustain cryogenic temperatures for several weeks even in the absence of the LN2 source.

In contrast, liquid phase freezers operate at a fixed temperature of approximately -196°C. Nevertheless, advancements in vapour storage, exemplified by the Variō freezer from Chart, now provide opportunities for temperature control. The Variō stores liquid nitrogen in a separate chamber rather than within the freezer itself. This liquid nitrogen is then propelled through a heat exchanger to generate vapour. Consequently, this unique freezer can operate across a broad temperature range, from -20°C to -150°C.

Conclusion

The decision-making process between liquid and vapour phase freezers may not be straightforward, as it involves considerations such as accessibility, temperature control capabilities, and storage needs tailored to the specific requirements of a cryo-room or facility.

Cardboard freezer boxes, a kind of vapour cryogenic phase storage method, are containers specifically designed for the storage of samples in freezers, particularly in laboratory and research settings. These cryo freezer boxes lab are constructed from sturdy and insulated cardboard materials that can withstand low temperatures, providing a cost effective and practical solution for organizing and protecting various samples.

Researchers commonly use cryo storage boxes to store and organize vials, tubes, or other sample containers in a systematic and efficient manner within a freezer. These boxes play a crucial role in maintaining sample integrity and facilitating easy access and identification during experiments or storage.

QSR Menu Boards Bring Great Convenience

Convenience is reshaping the consumer experience in quick service restaurants (QSR), with drive thru, delivery, and curbside pickup emerging as the favored methods in recent years. This shift is supported by data revealing a 30% increase in drive thru traffic from 2019 to 2022, coupled with a significant 47% decline in in person dining at fast food establishments during the first half of 2023 compared to the same period in 2019.

Curbside pickup, surpassing even drive thru in popularity, has become the preferred choice for 41% of U.S. consumers when ordering take out. Notably, customers opting for these convenience driven methods are often in a purchase ready mindset, potentially boosting additional purchase rates by up to 45%.

Given these trends, it is crucial for QSRs to deploy highly effective outdoor ready displays and menu boards. These tools play a pivotal role in guiding customers and encouraging additional purchases upon arrival, whether they choose the drive thru or curbside pickup options.

Putting Outdoor Screens To Work

The surge in drive thru orders and curbside pickups has prompted many Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) operators to expand their offerings, introducing dual lanes, order ahead lanes, and designated parking spaces for curbside pickup. In this landscape, the role of super bright outdoor displays becomes pivotal in influencing profit margins. QSRs employing drive thru lanes utilize outdoor signage to showcase new items and specials as drivers approach the order station. The same holds true for curbside pickups, where customers, upon encountering these signs, may be prompted to make additional purchases.

It is crucial that outdoor displays, are meticulously engineered, designed, and certified to operate effectively in diverse weather conditions. They must also ensure readability even under direct sunlight glare, a factor that gains significance when considering the need for speed in the process. This is underscored by research from Bluedot, revealing that 85% of consumers may consider or abandon a drive thru with a long line, and 6 in 10 might opt for a coffee chain over fast food drive thrus if the latter experience delays.

High quality outdoor ready drive thru digital menu boards play a pivotal role in enhancing speed and efficiency by guiding customers to the shortest line, conveying information clearly, illustrating available options and add ons, updating item availability, and promoting meal deals and bundles.

Choosing Outdoor Menu Boards For Restaurants

Outdoor displays, particularly top notch drive thru menu boards, significantly differ from their counterparts used inside Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) buildings. The distinctions lie in several key aspects:

Brightness Requirements:

Indoor menu screens behind order counters typically require a brightness rating of around 500 nits or even less.

In contrast, outdoor screens necessitate a brightness rating of 3,000 nits or higher to effectively counteract the impact of direct sunlight and ensure menu readability. Displays with lower brightness ratings may appear satisfactory in showrooms but struggle to compete with sunlight in real world conditions.

Heat Management:

Outdoor displays must be engineered to dissipate and withstand heat. The heightened brightness and nits required for readability in daylight generate substantial heat, further intensified by the thermal load from direct sunlight, especially during midday.

Well designed outdoor enclosures incorporate sophisticated internal systems to exhaust heat before it accumulates and affects the screen and electronics. In contrast, outdoor displays with flawed engineering may experience rapid failure or degradation, including isotropic failures—unsightly black blotches resulting from excessive internal heat buildup.

Durability and Weather Resistance:

Outdoor displays need robust engineering to withstand various weather conditions. They should be sealed against the ingress of rain, snow, and dust.

Structural designs should ensure that the units remain upright even in extreme weather conditions, such as hurricane force winds.

In summary, outdoor drive thru menu systems, especially those optimized for drive thru menu boards, demand superior engineering to address brightness challenges, effectively manage heat, and ensure long term durability in diverse environmental conditions.

Reduced Costs And Targeted Impacts

QSR fast food drive thru menu boards are opting for digital menus both inside and outside their establishments for valid reasons. The transition from traditional printed menus to dynamic digital signage offers cost saving advantages, reducing expenses associated with printing and shipping. Unlike paper or plastic menus that take days or even weeks to update, digital menus can be modified in a matter of seconds.

One notable feature driving this shift is the ability to implement dayparting, where menus can be scheduled to change based on the time of day. This allows for the seamless transition of menu items, such as breakfast sandwiches disappearing at a specified time, and the adjustment of promotions and specials according to specific times and dates. Furthermore, owners and operators appreciate the flexibility to fine tune menu options based on real time customer buying habits and profiles. This customization can adapt throughout the day or week, facilitated by a content management system.

The integration of a cloud based content management system for digital signage provides QSRs and restaurant owners with remote access to their displays. This remote capability empowers them to swiftly update content at a single restaurant location or across an entire chain, contributing to heightened brand awareness and increased sales. Additionally, this technology facilitates proactive monitoring of displays, enabling quick response and issue resolution even when managing multiple locations from off site locations.

As the technology continues to evolve, outdoor QSR drive thru digital menu boards are poised to play an increasingly integral role in shaping the future of navigation for restaurants. If you have any request, please contact EKAA!!!

Standard Expanded Metal vs. Flattened Expanded Metal

Posted by wang meihong on February 26, 2024 at 4:47am in Blogs

The application of expanded metal, or sheet metal cut and stretched into a diamond-shaped pattern by cutting and stretching it, can be found in a wide variety of industries, from consumer products to construction projects. The product is available in a variety of variations, with each version having a different size, strand width, and pattern in order to meet the needs of different customers. When choosing expanded metal for an operation, it is important to consider the following design elements, in addition to determining whether standard or flattened expanded metal is the best choice for that operation.

Here is an article that will help you to understand the differences between flattened and standard expanded metal in order to assist you in making a decision.

All About Standard Expanded Metal

Expanded metal comes straight off the expanding press in standard expanded metal form.

In contrast to its flattened counterpart, expanded metal strands are angled, rather than fixed, in a horizontal plane.

Standard expanded metal sheets exhibit different characteristics depending on how much expansion is applied, the pattern size, and the thickness of the base sheet. It is, however, possible to use the uneven surface to enhance structural strength and grip. In addition to directing light, air, fluids, and solid materials, the material is also capable of directing flow based on its pattern design.

All About Flattened Expanded Metal

Initially, flattened expanded metal is constructed using standard expanded metal, but it will be subjected to a milling process to smooth the horizontal surfaces of the metal.
As a result of these processes, expanded metal surfaces become flatter and smoother, eliminating the ridges characteristic of standard expanded metal.

Flattened expanded metal weighs approximately 5% less than standard expanded metal because it is thinner, flatter, wider, and longer. As a result of this characteristic, as well as the finished surface, it is ideal for applications that require reduced abrasion risk and an aesthetic appearance.

There are two types of flattened expanded sheets, namely short way of design (SWD) and long way of design (LWD). The dimensions of flattened expanded sheets can vary from one expansion operation to another based on how the material passes through the rolls. It is difficult to estimate the exact size and pattern of a finished sheet in light of both of these qualifiers.

Not To Remain

Posted by Apostle Lee on February 25, 2024 at 1:14pm in Blogs

Greetings in The Mighty Name of Jesus, The Christ!!!

Not To Remain

Romans 12:16 KJV

"[Be] of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits."

Brothers and Sisters we, who have Chosen Jesus as Savior and Lord, are Not To Remain the same as before we Chose Jesus. There MUST be a Transformation, that is, you Looked and seen as a Man In The Flesh, but now, you are to Look and See as Jesus Sees. You Heard of what Men Say and Believed but now you MUST Hear what The Holy Spirit says and Believe. Your Actions were those things that Satisfied The Flesh, but now Your Actions are to Please Jesus in Walking In The Spirit. There MUST be a Transformation in Your Whole Life!

In this Transformation from Flesh to Spirit, it is Equal To All who Accept Jesus as Savior and Lord and in this Transformation Become The Will Of The Father. Understand this, we are ALL TO CHANGE, go through a TRANSFORMATION, both Old and Young, Man, Woman and Child, they are to be Equal in this Transformation!!!

Ephesians 4:4-6 KJV

"⁴ [There is] one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; ⁵ One Lord, one faith, one baptism, ⁶ One God and Father of all, who [is] above all, and through all, and in you all."

With this being said, we, The Born Again, The Blood Bought, are to be in Total Agreement in All Things dealing with God and How We Are To Live! For Jesus would not say to John it is okay to be this way, then at the same time tell Mary to live the opposite, this would make Our Lord Jesus, The Father and The Holy Spirit Lunatics and would cause Great Chaos within The Body Of Christ!!! In order for The Born Again, The Blood Bought, to NOT to be making Our God out to be a Lunatic and NOT Creating Chaos, then we would have to Agree and be in One Accord!!!

For it is the Interpretation of The Flesh, not that Of God, that has brought forth Division, Lunatics, Chaos that calls themselves a Christians. It is by having tens of thousands of Bibles, Doctrine that has not cause a Transformation into Holiness but has Transformed you into a House Of Ruin!

Does NOT the Scripture below Beg us for a Godly Transformation…

Romans 12:1-2 KJV

"¹ I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, [which is] your reasonable service. ² And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."

…and if these Scriptures do in fact tells us that Transformation MUST happen in order to Prove, again TO PROVE what is Good, Acceptable and Perfect Will Of God The Father, there has to be a change, from Flesh to Spirit and we are to Desire such changes. But Understand this, anyone can CHOSE to Live however they want, however a Man or Woman may say and in doing so, do not Live Out The Fathers Will in Their Lives!

How do we Know that we are to be in One Accord, to Live as God Demands…

Galatians 2:20 KJV

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me."

This Scripture does not say I am Crucified with Catholics, Baptist, Protestant, and the list goes on, but does say that IF, IF, IF I have Accepted Jesus as Savior and Lord, then I am Crucified With Him, that is, My Flesh must come under control of The Spirit Of Jesus, through The Holy Spirit so that it is No Longer I, but Jesus who Lives IN ME and THROUGH ME to Prove what is that Good, Accepted and Perfect Will Of The Father IN, IN, IN, IN MY LIFE…WHOLE LIFE UNDIVIDED!!!

Jesus, The Living Word of The Father, has not, did not, will not change!!! So that means that The Word, which came from The Father has Not Changed, did Not Morph into the Desires Of The Flesh, but has Remained Holy even unto the very moment that The Father Spoke It in to Existence!

Hebrews 13:8 KJV

“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever."

Brothers and Sisters UNDERSTAND THIS, if you belong to some Organized Denomination that is NOT First Glorifying Jesus AS LORD, then you are NOT Hearing from God. If you belong to some Organized Denomination that is NOT Pointing The Finger AT SIN, then you are NOT Hearing from God. If you belong to some Organized Denomination that is NOT Teaching you How to Live a Godly Life, then you are NOT Hearing from God. If you belong to some Organized Denomination that is NOT Standing Against The World, then you are NOT Hearing from God. We Brothers and Sisters are to be, Are To Be, ARE TO BE in ONE ACCORD, Obeying the Same Word, the Same Spirit, the Same God, we are Not To Remain in Fleshly Sin as we were once found in, but Live According to The Fathers Will!!!

Does Not the below Scripture tell us to Live as though we are In Heaven…

Matthew 6:10 KJV

“Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as [it is] in heaven."

We, Brothers and Sisters, are to Live, Breath, Act as though we are in Heaven and in Heaven there is No Division, No Chaos, No Other Doctrine but one. Satan and Man has Divided, caused Chaos, use False Doctrine to bring forth The Church Of Today, NOT GOD!!! We should be able to sit with any Brother, any Sister, and Agree On Every Point Of View, Agree On Every Scripture… because in Heaven they do!!!

For me, for you, to Remain the same, to Do the same things, to Speak the same things as we did in The Flesh is Unacceptable to Jesus, Unacceptable to The Father, Unacceptable to The Holy Spirit in ALL THINGS!!!!

Jesus NEVER said “Once Saved, Always Saved”, He NEVER uttered such a phrase, but what Jesus did utter is that unless we Live According To The Fathers Will, we will NEVER SEE HEAVEN!

Matthew 7:21 KJV

“Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven."

So, WAKE UP, Brothers and Sisters, The Will Of The Father has never changed, will not change, we MUST NOT REMAIN the same, we have to be in One Accord, Living By One Word, Under One Doctrine to Live in The Fathers Will.

I see in a lot of Post asking what would Paul do or what would Jesus do or what would John The Baptist do if they were here today, this very hour, they would first be saddened to where we have come to, then they would Rebuke us all, then like Elijah would call from Heaven fire to destroy us! This is how bad The Church is today. My Calling is to be the Restorer Of The Breach, to Bring forth the Days Of Old, to Bring Repentance to The House Of God before the Great and Terrible day Of Our Lord Jesus to come.

Below is one of the Scriptures of many that The Lord gave me when He Set my feet on the path that I am on…

Isaiah 58:12 KJV

“And [they that shall be] of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in."

I am not here to satisfy the flesh, nor to make people like me or to have people agree with me, but that all would Obey The Will Of The Father as He has spoken, not as Man and Satan have manipulated. There are yet many things that must come to pass before Jesus Returns, but, Jesus will Return and will gather those who are Walking In Obedience, Doing The Fathers Will…make no mistake about it!

We can Not Remain the same, we have to change if we are to be Accepted By Jesus, to be Accepted By The Father. It has Not Changed since the beginning of time, that is, to Walk as God Walks, to Do as God Does, to Speak as God has Spoken. The hour is short, the season is almost upon us, persecution will happen to all those Who are In Jesus, doing The Fathers Will and for those who are not, you will die in your sins of the flesh and will have No Excuse before Jesus…You Have Been Warned!!!

Not To Remain

The Same

Is

Your Choice

Not Gods

Amen and Amen!!!

The Ultimate Guide: Active Mixer vs Passive Mixer

Posted by wang meihong on February 23, 2024 at 3:43am in Blogs

Mixers play a crucial role in a wide array of RF/microwave applications, ranging from military radar systems to cellular base stations and beyond. Functioning as three-port devices, mixers can be either passive or active, with the primary capability to modulate or demodulate signals. Their key objective is to alter the frequency of an electromagnetic signal while endeavoring to maintain the original signal's essential characteristics, such as phase and amplitude. This frequency conversion is particularly vital for amplifying received signals at a frequency different from that of the RF.

The decision between active mixers and passive mixers holds significant implications for the performance of communication systems, electronic devices, and diverse applications. Within this comprehensive guide, we aim to untangle the complexities surrounding active mixers and passive mixers. We'll delve into their functionalities, applications, and provide valuable insights to assist you in making well-informed decisions when selecting the ideal mixer tailored to your specific needs.

What Is an Active Mixer?

An active mixer is a type of electronic device used in signal processing and communication systems to modulate or demodulate signals. Unlike passive mixers that rely solely on passive components, active mixers incorporate active electronic components, such as transistors or operational amplifiers, to actively manipulate the input signals.

What Is a Passive Mixer?

A passive mixer is an electronic device used in signal processing and communication systems to combine or separate different input signals without the use of active electronic components. Unlike active mixers that employ amplifying elements like transistors or operational amplifiers, passive mixers rely solely on passive components such as resistors, capacitors, and transformers.

How Does a Passive Mixer Work?

A passive mixer works by utilizing passive electronic components to combine or separate different input signals without the use of active amplification. The primary components involved in a passive mixer include resistors, capacitors, transformers, and diodes. Unlike active mixers that use active components like transistors for signal amplification, passive mixers rely on the inherent properties of these passive components to perform signal manipulation.

Here is a general overview of how a passive mixer operates:

1.Input Signals

A passive mixer typically takes multiple input signals that need to be combined or processed. These signals can come from different sources or may represent different frequency components.

2.Combining Signals

The passive mixer combines these input signals using passive components. Common configurations involve the use of resistive networks, transformers, or diode-based mixers. The specific arrangement depends on the application requirements.

3.Frequency Conversion

In some cases, a passive mixer may perform frequency conversion, changing the frequency of an input signal. This process is often achieved through the use of nonlinear devices like diodes, which generate new frequency components through the mixing of input signals.

4.Signal Summation

Passive mixers sum the input signals together, creating a combined output signal. The summation process can be achieved through resistor networks or transformer windings, where the voltages of the input signals add up.

5.Signal Splitting

Alternatively, passive mixers can be designed to split a single input signal into different paths. This is useful in applications where signal distribution is required.

6.Isolation

Passive mixers may provide some level of isolation between input signals to prevent interference. This is especially important when combining signals from different sources to ensure that each input signal remains relatively unaffected by the others.

7.Linear Signal Processing

Passive mixers perform linear signal processing, meaning that the input-output relationship is proportional and does not introduce active amplification. This is advantageous in applications where maintaining signal linearity is crucial.

What Is the Difference Between Active and Passive Mixers?

Active mixers and passive mixers are two distinct types of electronic devices used in signal processing and communication systems. The primary difference between them lies in how they manipulate input signals, involving the use of either active or passive components. Here's a breakdown of the key distinctions between active and passive mixers:

1. Active Mixers

Components: Active mixers incorporate active electronic components like transistors or operational amplifiers.
Amplification: They actively amplify the input signals during the mixing process, providing gain to the signals.
Signal Modulation/Demodulation: Active mixers are capable of both modulating and demodulating signals, altering their characteristics based on specific requirements.
Frequency Conversion: Achieves frequency conversion by changing the frequency of an input signal, allowing further processing or transmission at a different frequency.
Performance: Generally offers higher gain, better linearity, and increased dynamic range compared to passive mixers.
Complexity: Can be more complex due to the inclusion of active components.
Power Consumption: Tends to have higher power consumption compared to passive mixers.
Applications: Widely used in applications where signal amplification, modulation, and complex signal processing are required.

2.Passive Mixers

Components: Passive mixers rely solely on passive electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, transformers, and diodes.
Amplification: Do not actively amplify signals; they rely on the inherent properties of passive components for signal manipulation.
Signal Modulation/Demodulation: Primarily used for combining or splitting signals without active modulation or demodulation.
Frequency Conversion: Can achieve frequency conversion using nonlinear devices like diodes to mix input signals and generate new frequency components.
Performance: May have limitations in terms of insertion loss and signal isolation compared to active mixers.
Complexity: Generally simpler in design due to the absence of active amplification components.
Power Consumption: Typically has lower power consumption compared to active mixers.
Applications: Commonly used in applications where simplicity, lower power consumption, and linear signal processing are priorities.

Selecting a Mixer

Mixer selection depends on many factors and, most of all, on the requirements of an application. Determine the LO, RF, and IF frequency ranges involved as well as the LO drive required. Some applications require a specific amount of harmonic distortion. Finally, determine the type of packaging the mixer will have.
