Abstract:
Disclosed is a coding apparatus and method using residual bits. Accordingly, performance (voice quality) is enhanced by quantizing a full-band gain of frequency coefficients existing in sub-bands to which bits are not assigned in an algebraic vector quantization (AVQ). Further, the performance (voice quality) is enhanced by sequentially quantizing a sub-band gain of sub-bands to which bits are not assigned until residual bits are removed. Furthermore, the performance (voice quality) is enhanced by demodulating AVQ coefficients, and correcting quantization noises starting with a coefficient having the greatest absolute coefficient among the AVQ coefficients, when residual bits additionally remain.
Abstract:
Provided are a switching circuit and a small-size high-efficiency direct current-to-direct current (DC-DC) converter for portable devices including the same. Using dynamic threshold-complementary metal oxide semiconductor (DT-CMOS) transistors having dynamic threshold voltages as a switching device, the switching circuit maintains a low threshold voltage in a normal mode to improve current drivability while reducing conduction loss, and maintains a high threshold voltage in a standby mode to minimize power consumption. When the switching circuit is employed in a DC-DC converter, power conversion efficiency can be improved by reducing conduction loss in the normal mode, and power consumption can be minimized in the standby mode. Consequently, the DC-DC converter can maximize a use time of a battery of a portable device and can be useful in power supplies of portable devices that are gradually being miniaturized.

The provided classifies a plurality of information providing means into a plurality of domains including at least one information providing means and when a user process accesses any one domain and then attempts to access another domain, controls the access to said another domain by verifying whether or not the access of the user process to said another domain is allowed. According to the provided, security threats are monitored for each domain which an execution process accesses by simply constructing domain classification information of an entire system without specifically establishing a security policy of an information providing device, such that it is possible to protect a terminal from a multi-domain access process having high security risk. Accordingly, it is advantageous to increase security for the terminal from various security threats.
