Counterexamples are generated for properties that failed and returned as VHDL testbench, allowing the user to identify the faulty behavior with simulation.

Design of multi-gigabit TI-ADCs is of great interest for next generation digital communication systems such as optical coherent networks. In these applications, mismatches of the sampling time, gain, offset, and frequency response among the interleaves of a TI-ADC limit the performance of the converter unless they are compensated. Typically, long computer simulation run time is required to evaluate the performance of mixed-signal calibration algorithms. We show that the FPGA-based system described in this paper drastically reduces the emulation time by more than hundreds of magnitude orders. The proposed FPGA framework includes: (i) a diagnostic and control unit built upon an embedded processor NIOSII, (ii) DSP blocks to implement the transmitter and the receiver, and (iii) a Gaussian number generator to emulate the noise channel component. Experimental results with a 2 GS/s 6-bit CMOS TI-ADC demonstrate the excellent capability of the implemented FPGA-based emulator to evaluate the performance of a mixed-signal calibration algorithm.","PeriodicalId":129875,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 7th Latin American Symposium on Circuits & Systems (LASCAS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124582736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These circuits are commonly used to drive DC and stepper motors among many other power electronics applications. In this work, a fully integrated 12V H-Bridge is designed in a 0.6μm HV technology as a replacement of an obsolete commercial part. The main objective is to provide an OEM in Uruguay with a flexible and low cost substitute of an off the shelf IC currently utilized on its products, that is being discontinued. The new H-Bridge was designed for the same package and improves some characteristics like power consumption, maximum switching frequency, over the old one. Because the cost is a major constrain to reach production stage in this project, the silicon area was reduced as much as possible. The resulting circuit is a low cost 12 V H-Bridge, with a logic input `1' down to 2.8V, switching up to 300kHz, in a 1.8mm2 die area.","PeriodicalId":129875,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 7th Latin American Symposium on Circuits & Systems (LASCAS)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124832968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A multilayer perceptron neural network was trained in order to perform the classification process. Afterward, the trained weights and biases were used to implement in hardware the mathematical model of the proposed network. The implemented circuits were characterized in terms of the hardware resources consumption, operational frequency and power consumption. Numerical comparisons between hardware and software results were used in order to validate the hardware implementation and to estimate the classification error.

From analytical expression, we prove that the maximum extracted power is around 75% of the available power in a TEG, without using a closed loop maximum peak power tracking to regulate the input voltage. In our measurements, the TEG is modeled by a voltage source (50mV-200mV) with a series resistance of 5 Ohms. The prototype is fully electric, starts from 50 mV and can extract 60% (at 50 mV) to 65% (at 200 mV) of the available power.

Using data obtained from synthesis and benchmarking we analyze the processor performance and compare it to similar commercial products. Obtained results indicate that HF-RISC is a good option for embedded design, as it presents performance figures similar to state-of-the-art ARM processors.

The method used by the EDA (Electronic Design Automation) tool to obtain an equivalent W/L is compared with well know mathematical models presented on the literature. The influences in the aspect ratio estimation regarding designer-controlled layout variables are also target of investigation. Results indicate that the EDA tool analyzed in this work, overestimates the extraction of aspect ratio from ELT layout, when compared with a more accurate mathematical model used to calculate the effective aspect ratio of square ELT devices. The results also show that designer-controlled layout variables may contribute to increase the divergences among the extraction tool method and the studied models in the estimation of the ELT aspect ratio.","PeriodicalId":129875,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 7th Latin American Symposium on Circuits & Systems (LASCAS)","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126617102","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unlike the non-blind deconvolution, the blind deconvolution has to seek both of the two unknown factors for RTN and RDF simultaneously, given only the information about the overall SRAM margin distribution. This paper proposes a new filter design technique for the Richardson-Lucy (R-L) blind deconvolutions. This allows to enjoy the benefits of the R-L algorithm while avoiding the inherent pitfall or ringing errors even in the blind deconvolution. The relative errors of the blind-deconvolution for RDF and RTN are reduced to less than 1% within only 300-iteration cycles. This is 400-times shorter than the conventional one.","PeriodicalId":129875,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 7th Latin American Symposium on Circuits & Systems (LASCAS)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126105262","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Malicious applications can be downloaded at runtime to the MPSoC, infect IPs and open doors to perform timing attacks. By monitoring the Network-on-Chip (NoC) traffic, an attacker is able to spy sensitive information such as secret keys. Previous works have shown that NoC routers can be used to avoid timing attacks. However, such approaches may lead to overall system performance degradation. In this paper we propose SER, a secure enhanced router architecture that dynamically configures the router memory space according to the communication and security properties of the traffic. Timing attacks are avoided by turning the attacker oblivious of the sensitive traffic. We evaluate the security, performance and cost of our approach. We show that our architecture is able to secure paths during runtime while adding only low cost and performance penalties to the MPSoC.","PeriodicalId":129875,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 7th Latin American Symposium on Circuits & Systems (LASCAS)","volume":"144 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132093124","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
