Táto práca sa zaoberá vývojom a testovaním konfigurovateľného SPI slave zariadenia, ktorého hlavným účelom je testovanie reálnych SPI master zariadení. Zariadenie je implementované pomocou STM32 mikrokontroléra na vývojovej doske NUCLEO. Medzi základné funkcionality zariadenia patrí meranie frekvencie SPI prenosu, stream mód, ktorý umožní umožní presne sledovať, čo pripojené master zariadenie posiela po SPI zbernici a LUT mód, ktorý umožňuje nakonfigurovať zariadenie tak, aby odpovedalo prednastavenými odpoveďami na aktuálnu príchodziu správu. Rozšírená funkcionalita sa skladá z EEPROM emulátor módu. V tomto móde sa zariadenia správa ako virtuálna náhrada reálneho EEPROM zariadenia. Zariadenie je pripojené k počítaču pomocou sériového portu a je možné toto zariadenie konfigurovať pomocou python programáterského rozhrania. Zariadenie taktiež hlási každú aktivitu na SPI zbernici tomuto python programátorskému rozhraniu.

This thesis examines a floating gate device (FGD) structure available under standard (digital) CMOS manufacturing processes and puts forth two applications for these devices. The first application is the creation of a tunable current mirror. Inclusion of the FGD structure allows the legs of the mirror to be electronically tweaked to compensate for mismatch. Experimental data is presented on this device structure?s performance. The second application explores using the FGD structure as a tunable resistor. Operation of the FGD in this manner creates the possibility of an electrically tunable beta-multiplier current reference. This tunability allows theoretical adjustment of both the generated reference current as well as a selectable temperature performance. Experimental data of obtained resistor values is presented with simulation results of the entire circuit.

Les mémoires volatiles représentent aujourd'hui 30% du marché des mémoires à semi-conducteurs. La tendance générale actuelle consiste à mettre au point des produits nomades capables d'emmagasiner et de restituer une grande quantité d'informations en peu de temps et pouvant fonctionner avec une faible tension d'alimentation. Dans ce cadre, cette thèse s'intéresse à la possibilité d'augmenter les performances d'une mémoire non-volatile de type EEPROM en termes de vitesse de programmation et de baisse des tensions de programmation. Nous étudions aussi la modélisation de la fermeture de la fenêtre de programmation en fonction du nombre de cycles programmation/effacement en extrayant les paramètres Fowler-Nordheim α et β sur des capacités équivalentes soumises à une contrainte électrique dynamique égale à celle que subit l'oxyde tunnel d'une mémoire EEPROM lors d'un test en endurance. Les simulations sont effectuées à l'aide d'un modèle physique compact de cellule EEPROM basé sur le calcul du potentiel de surface et du potentiel de grille flottante. Ce modèle prend en compte la non-linéarité de la capacité de la zone tunnel due à la désertion de la grille flottante en polysilicium. Nous montrons que la durée de programmation d'une cellule EEPROM peut être réduite à 10µs tout en ayant une endurance supérieure à 50000 cycles programmation/effacement. De plus, les tensions de programmation de la cellule peuvent être divisées par deux en les répartissant entre la grille de contrôle et le drain. Ceci implique l'utilisation de tensions négatives. Enfin, l'émulation du vieillissement de l'oxyde tunnel sur des capacités équivalentes montre une fermeture de la fenêtre de programmation supérieure à celle mesurée sur une cellule EEPROM. Cette fermeture plus importante est attribuée à une dégradation additionnelle de l'oxyde tunnel due aux mesures de courant Fowler-Nordheim en vue d'extraire les paramètres Fowler-Nordheim.

This diploma thesis is focused on testing ECG monitors and ECG instruments. There are discussed origin and charakteristics of ECG signal. The ECG signal is presented by standard leads. This is the reason, why the way of making leads is mentioned. One chapter is aimed at generating ECG signal. There are set requierements for the ECG generator. These requierements results from ECG instrument possibilities and from ECG signal character. Next part of this diploma thesis includes hardware design of each part of the system. The system was designed with respect to mobility and 12-leads systems compatibility. Finaly the thesis includes design of the controll software.

The backbone of this dissertation is a discussion of the adaptability of optical fiber modes of transmission. The technological boom in commercial vehicles tends to include more electronic components and more data flow. The traditional copper transmission is reliable but has drawbacks. At present optical fiber, technology is in huge demand in fields like avionics, medicine, and communication across continents. The drastic shift to fiber was due to the enormous increase in capacity. Simultaneously the commercial vehicle sector is advancing in the direction of sensors that require a non-disruptive data flow. Furthermore, autonomous driving technology pushes the transition from copper to optic fiber. One expects optical fiber to supplant the traditional copper cables in the future. The dispersion and scattering losses need to be studied as well as the difference in cost.

The main goal of this thesis is to design control board for the experimental electroporation device and to develop control firmware. The first chapter of this work focuses on the electroporation phenomenon itself. Behaviour of the cell model in external electrical field is described there as well as simulation and overview of how electroporation affects living tissue. It also explains the main requirements for parameters of the electroporation pulses as well as need for ECG synchronization. Furthermore, some remarks are given about novel high frequency electroporation method, which involves use of nanosecond bipolar high voltage pulse bursts. The second chapter briefly introduces commercial electroporation device called Nanoknife, including control part, power part, and it's limits. The third chapter consists of introduction of the novel experimental electroporation device developed at BUT. Power part of this device is discussed as well. Next chapter focuses on design of the control board for this device and also on description of the particular schematic parts. There is a control algorithm explanation in the fifth chapter of this thesis followed by the brief manual to machine operation.
