The performance of traditional continuous-time (CT) delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) is limited by their large sensitivity to feedback pulse-width variations caused by clock jitter in their feedback digital-to-analog converters (DACs). To mitigate that effect, we propose a modified switched-capacitor (SC) feedback DAC technique, with a variable switched series resistor (SR). The arc

Background: Many people are tempted to start their own business. The personal driving force varies but in most cases it’s all about making money. But it doesn’t always have to be for that reason alone. Maybe you want to take initiatives to changes, separate yourself from the crowd and take risks.

This paper examines how the returns and volatility of Chinese ADRs listed at NYSE are affected by their host market (US), underlying market (Hong Kong) and local market (Shanghai). Using a GARCH spillover model and data from 1 January 2002 to 30 September 2007, we find that the volatility spillover from US (host market), Hong Kong (underlying market) and Shanghai (local market) to Chinese ADRs, fo

Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur en hållbarhetsmärkning av kläder i en e-handelskontext påverkar ett företags varumärkeskapital. Metod: Studien utgick från en kvantitativ ansats där tre av Aakers (1991) fem dimensioner av kundbaserat varumärkeskapital operationaliserades. I en enkät fördelades respondenterna in i tre grupper som mötte olika stimuli och fick ta ställning till sPurpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how a sustainability label on clothing in an e-commerce context affects a company's brand equity. Methodology: The study was based on a quantitative approach where three of Aaker’s (1991) five dimensions of customer-based brand equity were operationalized. Respondents of our online survey were divided into three groups, exposed to differen

Behandling av personuppgifter, vilket undersöks i denna uppsats, sker i den offentliga och privata sektorn, och i organisationer av alla storlekar. Personuppgiftsbehandlingar förekommer i varje gren av en organisation och hos alla olika aktörer, inom så spridda områden som rättsväsendet eller en frisörsalong. Mer specifikt syftar denna uppsats till att studera definitionen av "behandling"Personal data processing, as will be examined in this thesis, occurs in the public and the private sectors, in organisations of every size. It occurs in every branch of an organisation and by all different actors, be it law-enforcement or a hairdresser saloon. More specifically this thesis aims to study the definition of ‘processing’ and attempts to highlight the features and characterisation of i

Med en befolkning på cirka 30 miljoner människor är kurderna den fjärde största etniska gruppen i Mellanöstern. Trots detta har kurderna inte sin egen självständiga stat vilket gör dem till en minoritetsgrupp i Turkiet, Irak, Iran och Syrien. Eftersom kurderna är utspridda över fyra olika stater är det av intresse att undersöka hur de hänvisar till varandra i förhållande till idén om att ha en suvWith a population of around 30 million people, the Kurds are the fourth largest ethnic group in the Middle East. Despite this, the Kurds do not have their own independent state which makes them a minority group in Turkey, Iraq, Iran and Syria. Since the Kurds are scattered over four different states it is of interest to examine how they refer to each other in relation to the idea of having an inde

As passive investing has grown in popularity, the number of available passive investment strategies have risen as well. This paper strives to investigate one of these investment strategies, namely fundamental indexation. More specifically, the aim of this study is to investigate if fundamental indices are more mean-variance efficient compared to capitalization-weighted indices. Given that the supe

The sex ratio at birth first increased until 1994 and then stayed fluctuating before it decreased from 2000 on. Regarding the issue of whether or not China's current family planning policy affects and to what extent it affects the sex ratio at birth, starts wi

This paper examines the impact of the Paris agreement on firms on the Swedish stock market. Additionally, the firms were also categorized into sustainable and unsustainable firms by their Environmental Pillar Score (which is part of the ESG score) in order to investigate performance differences between the two groups. On top of that, a comparison between sustainable firms with the market index OMX

The RF power amplifier is one of the most critical blocks of transceivers, as it is expected to provide a suitable output power with high gain, efficiency and linearity. In this paper, a 60-GHz power amplifier based on an injection locked structure is demonstrated in a standard 65 CMOS technology. The PA core consists of a cross-coupled pair of NMOS transistors with an NMOS current source. This st

This master thesis presents a suggested Renovation Passport for two typical 1960s single-family houses. Following the recently approved Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EU 2024/1275A), all member states are to implement voluntary Renovation Passports by 2026, which will aid in reaching the 2050 goal of a decarbonized building stock. The aim of Renovation Passports is to provide long-ter

Background:The research of social science tends in many cases lean towards an approach that focus on negatively influencing factors, rather than health promoting factors from a salutogenic perspective. In the field of criminology, this approach commonly investigates reasons behind criminal behavior instead of studying the salutogenic factors, i.e. reasons why people do not engage in a criminal lif
