An acceptance sampling plan is a method used to make a decision about acceptance or rejection of a product, based on adherence to a standard. Meanwhile, process capability indices (PCIs) have been applied in different manufacturing industries as capability measures based on specified criteria which include process departure from a target, process consistency, process yield and process loss. In this paper, a repetitive group sampling (RGS) plan based on PCI is introduced for variables' inspection. First, the optimal parameters of the developed RGS plan are obtained considering constraints related to the risk of consumers and producers and also a double sampling plan, a multiple dependent state sampling plan and a sampling plan for resubmitted lots have been designed. Finally, after the development of variable sampling plans based on the Bayesian and exact approach, a comparison study has been performed between the developed RGS plan and other types of sampling plans and the results are elaborated.
ARTICLE HISTORY
This work proposes a novel method to find the phase error and oscillation amplitude in multiphase LC oscillators. A mathematical approach is used to find the relationship between every stage's output phase and its coupling factor. To much more general analysis, every stage assumed to have a different coupling factor. The mismatches in LC tanks are considered as the main source of phase errors and accordingly the phase deviation of each stage is calculated in a distinct equation. Then, the amplitude of oscillation for each stage is individually derived using phase error results. Not only considering different coupling factors increases the generality of this work but also the results are in better conformance with simulations compared to previous works. The theoretical results are evaluated and confirmed through extensive simulations using ADS software.
