Numerical Evaluation of Problematic Situations: Error Analysis and Solution Methods

Numerical Evaluation of Problematic Situations

Error Analysis

In numerical evaluation, errors can arise due to:

  • Rounding error: Limited precision of computers leads to data being represented with a finite number of decimal places, causing arithmetic operations to produce errors.
  • Truncation error: Infinite processes are replaced by finite processes, leading to errors.
  • Inherent error: Approximation of reality by mathematical models and use of error-affected data.
  • Modeling or programming error: Errors in

Binary, Octal, and Hexadecimal Conversions

  • Binary: Base-2 numeral system using 0s and 1s. Conversion between binary and decimal involves place values.
  • Octal: Base-8 numeral system using digits 0 to 7. Conversion to and from binary can be done by grouping 3 bits at a time.
  • Hexadecimal: Base-16 numeral system using digits 0 to 9 and A to F. Conversion to binary can be done by converting each hex digit to a 4-bit binary representation.

MOSFET Operation and Modeling

MOSFET Operation

Accumulation

Negative voltage applied to the gate attracts mobile holes to the surface under the gate.

Depletion (weak inversion, subthreshold)

Small positive voltage applied to the gate repels free holes, not negative enough to attract holes, not positive enough to attract many electrons.

Inversion

Moderate positive voltage applied to the gate attracts free electrons from source and drain under the gate.

MOSFET Modeling

MOS Large Signal Model

In saturation, the drain current is basically

Digital Electronics: Half-Subtractor, De Morgan’s Theorems, 2 to 4 Decoder, JK Flip-Flop, and Flip Flop Types

What is a Half-Subtractor?

half-subtractor is a combinational logic circuit that have two inputs and two outputs (i.e. difference and borrow). The half subtractor produces the difference between the two binary bits at the input and also produces a borrow output (if any). In the subtraction (A-B), A is called as Minuend bit and B is called as Subtrahend bit. The block diagram and logic circuit diagram of the half subtractor is shown in Figure-1.
