    Abstract : Introduction: No Fixed-Dose Combination (FDC) formulations currently exist for pediatric tuberculosis (TB) treatment. Earlier work implemented, in the software NONMEM, a rational method for optimizing design and individualization of pediatric anti-TB FDC formulations based on patient body weight, but issues with parameter estimation, dosage strata heterogeneity and representative pharmacokinetics remained.

  4. 3. The design of an all-digital VCO-based ADC in a 65nm CMOS technology

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Elektroniksystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Manivannan Thangamani; Allen Arun Prabaharan; [2014]
    Keywords : VCO-ADC; VCO-bsaed ADC; Time-based quantizer; all-digital ADC; VCO; FDC;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the study and design of an all-digital VCO-based ADC in a 65 nm CMOS technology. As the CMOS process enters the deep submicron region, the voltage-domain-based ADCs begins to suffer in improving their performance due to the use of complex analog components. READ MORE
