Previous work has explored the SRAM-based CIM AdderNet circuits and demonstrates high energy efficiency. However, it still suffers low storage density, repetitive readout, and redundant comparisons. In this brief, an RRAM-based CIM macro is proposed for efficient AdderNet with the following innovations. First, RRAM cells are adopted to replace SRAM for high-density weight storage. A low-power readout and hold circuit is proposed to save redundant read power of weight data held for multiple cycles. Second, an 8-bit comparator with an early-stop strategy is proposed to compare 8-bit activations and weights in one cycle. Third, an activation (ACT) differential strategy is proposed to reduce redundant comparisons.

In this article, we introduce a novel side-channel vulnerability that leaks data-dependent power variations through physical layer supply voltage coupling (PSVC). Unlike traditional power side-channel attacks, the proposed vulnerability allows an adversary to mount an attack and extract information without modifying the device. In addition, unlike existing power-based remote attacks on field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), the PSVC vulnerability applies to both on-chip and on-board attacks. We assess the effectiveness of the PSVC vulnerability through three case studies, demonstrating several end-to-end attacks on general-purpose microcontrollers with varying adversary capabilities. These case studies provide evidence for the existence of the PSVC vulnerability, its applicability to on-chip as well as on-board side-channel attacks, and how it can eliminate the need for physical access to the target device, making it applicable to any off-the-shelf hardware. Our experiments also reveal that designing devices to operate at the lowest operational voltage significantly reduces the risk of PSVC side-channel vulnerability.","PeriodicalId":13425,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) Systems","volume":"33 6","pages":"1715-1728"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144117270","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A self-calibration technique is employed to correct linear errors due to capacitor mismatches and interstage gain errors (IGEs). To counteract the effects of power supply and temperature variations, the first three stages of the ADC are equipped with least-mean-squares (LMS) IGE background calibrations, enhanced by the injection of a 1-bit dither into these stages. The computational engines designed for background calibration were reused for self-calibration, simplifying the overall design. An improved integrated input buffer drives the ADC, achieving a bandwidth of approximately 6.3 GHz, which is essential for high-speed data acquisition and processing. Moreover, a low-power operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) and reference buffer, both operating on a 1.0-V supply, are implemented to minimize the chip’s power consumption. The 12-bit pipeline prototype ADC, fabricated using a 28-nm CMOS process, operates at 2-GS/s with a 1.0-Vpp input signal. It delivers a signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio (SNDR) of 58.92 dB and a spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) of 82.23 dB.

Practical deployment of chiplet-based platforms, however, requires developing novel electronic design automation (EDA) tools that support advanced packaging approaches. Compact thermal simulators are essential EDA tools for the evaluation of design alternatives at the early stages of the design. Developing efficient compact thermal simulators for advanced heterogeneous integration platforms is a key requirement, as the available tools provide limited support for heterogeneity and advanced packaging technologies. ARTSim 2.0, a robust thermal simulator for heterogeneous integration platforms, is presented in this work. ARTSim 2.0 includes three main features, i.e., robust hybrid meshing, modeling of heterogeneous layers, and an efficient solver that utilizes parallel processing. Several case studies on advanced chiplet-based platforms, including TSV-based 3-D integrated circuits (ICs), Intel EMIB, and TSMC InFO_PoP, are conducted to demonstrate the novel capabilities of ARTSim 2.0. The performance of ARTSim 2.0 for both transient and steady-state conditions is compared to results obtained from state-of-the-art finite element method (FEM) tools. Simulation results confirm that the temperature accuracy of the thermal maps that are generated by ARTSim 2.0 is within a maximum error of 1.17% while exhibiting a reduction in runtime of at least two orders of magnitude, as compared to the FEM tools.","PeriodicalId":13425,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) Systems","volume":"33 6","pages":"1638-1650"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144117239","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
