The present invention relates to an improved pillar anchor and a method for manufacturing the same. According to the pillar anchor of the present invention described as above and the method for manufacturing the same, the rims of the pair of separated base plates abut each other, so that the surface in contact with the belt is formed in a “C”-shape. Thus, it is simple to manufacture the pillar anchor of the present invention, and moreover, the number of processes needed for manufacture is reduced. In addition, since the inner peripheral surfaces of the belt insertion holes around which the belt is wound are generally formed of only a steel plate, the friction coefficient between the belt and the inner peripheral surfaces of the belt insertion holes is reduced. Accordingly, when the belt is subjected to tension, damage caused from wear and tear of the belt due to the friction between the belt and the inner peripheral surfaces of the belt insertion holes is effectively reduced. Moreover, the belt can smoothly moves on the inner peripheral surfaces of the belt insertion holes.

A method of preparing a composite of organic and inorganic compounds includes the steps of reacting a mixed solution of a metal alkoxide and a silicon-containing compound with a catalyst to produce an alcogel of a metal oxide or a complex metal oxide. The metal alkoxide is prepared by reacting at least one metal with an alcohol and the mixed solution is prepared by mixing the metal alkoxide with the silicon-containing compound. An alcogel is produced from the reacting step and alcohol is impregnated within the inorganic oxide lattice structure of the alcogel. Furthermore, the method of preparing a composite of an organic and an inorganic compound includes the steps of centrifuging the alcogel to separate any alcohol from the alcogel to form a gel, adding an organic monomer the gel and polymerizing the organic monomer in-situ to form an organic polymer. The resulting composite has characteristics of both the parent organic and inorganic compounds.

Provided is a low-reference-current generator that includes a circuit employing two feedback loops enabling it to operate even at a low voltage, has a high power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) to control power supply noise, and simply forms a voltage without a voltage-to-current converter used in a conventional general reference current generator. The reference current generator includes: a first voltage generator receiving a predetermined current and generating a first voltage that decreases as temperature increases; a second voltage generator generating a second voltage that increases as temperature increases; a first current generator generating a first current corresponding to the first voltage; a second current generator generating a second current corresponding to the second voltage; and a reference current generator receiving the first current and the second current and generating a reference current that is the sum of the first current and the second current.

Provided is a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) using a current feedback network for use in a wireless communication terminal. The voltage-controlled oscillator has high input impedance and low output impedance, so that a degree of isolation from the external load is excellent, thereby preventing degradation of the Q-factor by the load in overall oscillation circuit. In the voltage-controlled oscillator of the present invention, an LC resonator is provided to generate positive feedback, and negative resistance may be obtained at a wider frequency range by tuning a varactor of the LC resonator. And a boosting inductor is inserted into the positive feedback loop to have a greater negative resistance, therefore it is possible to prevent a problem in which the oscillation does not occur due to the parasitic resistance components generated during circuit fabrication.
