Since the invention of the CMOS technology in the 1960s, its performance has improved, radically bringing down the cost, footprint, and power consumption of electronic devices. Today, we are surrounded by CMOS ICs in our daily lives — whether or not we notice it. Common devices that contain CMOS ICs include cell phones, vehicles, Bluetooth headsets, and remote control devices. 互補式金屬氧化物半導體(Complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor,簡稱 CMOS)可將電子電路縮小,製造出只有數平方毫米的單片集成電路(芯片)。自 1960年代面世以來,這項科技已經帶來不少革命性影響,大為減低電子設備的成 本、電力消耗和體積。無論大家是否留意,CMOS芯片其實早已滲入我們日常生活 的不同層面,包括手機、車輛、藍牙耳機和遙控器等電器。 跨越電子學與核磁共振的矽芯片 Silicon Chips Bridging Electronics and NMR 文/李家明‧圖/由作者提供‧中文翻譯/葉浩男 English Text / Lei Ka Meng ‧ Photo / Provided by the author ‧ Chinese Translation / Davis Ip 圖一:使用平行化方式的可攜式核磁共振平台,其核心是包裝在晶片載體內之CMOS核磁共振收發器。 2 Picture 1: The hardware for the portable NMR platform with parallelism. The core of the platform is the CMOS NMR transceiver, which was packaged onto a chip carrier for testing2.
