The back-gate terminal biasing leads to forward or reverse bias of the transistors and has been used to improve the bitcell electrical metrics. The derived 6T bitcell variants show a gain of 67% (25%) in cell current at 0.6V (1V), 45% reduction in write time at 0.6V, along with a gain in either write margin or static noise margin. Two 4T load-less bitcell variants using back-gate bias have been fabricated and compared for performance, power and stability margins. The back-gate biasing concept has been extended to optimize 8T, 10T bitcells and their simulation results are also presented.","PeriodicalId":183620,"journal":{"name":"2013 Proceedings of the ESSCIRC (ESSCIRC)","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122769378","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}

The WuRx consists of an envelope detector, high-gain baseband amplifier, and clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit. Subthreshold-operated offset-voltage cancellers are used in the detector and baseband amplifier. The envelope detector can operate for an on-off keying (OOK) signal with a low bit-rate baseband and 60-GHz carrier, which is higher than the cutoff frequency (fT) of 0.18-μm MOSFETs. This is because the fT defines the maximum operating bit-rate of the baseband signal. The CDR circuit is composed of a clock recovery circuit using an injection-locked oscillator, short pulse generator, and D-type flip/flop. The fabricated WuRx successfully operates with power consumption of only 9 μW from a 1.5-V supply and a high sensitivity of -68 dBm for a 350-kbit/s OOK signal with a 60-GHz carrier.

Each ECoG recording IC contains an 8-channel ADC, each serving one column and multiplexing up to 32 rows in the external ECoG array. Each column ADC converts signal coarsely by 10-bit successive approximation (SA), and performs fine conversion of the residue by 7-bit 1st order incremental delta-sigma (ΔΣ) conversion. One bit of overlap between SA and ΔΣ stages supports wide dynamic range with an instantaneous core range of 3.9 mV, sufficiently larger than typical ECoG signals, while handling electrochemical and process variations in the ECoG electrode array up to ±1 V. Tests show a measured dynamic range of 85 dB and CMRR of 87 dB at 19.5 kS/s and at 19.4 μA from 3.3 V per ADC channel.

If the required output frequency is not related to fPD in this way, one is forced to approximate the ratio by using a small programmable modulus DΔΣM or a very large power of two modulus. Both solutions involve additional hardware. In addition, the programmable modulus solution can suffer from spurs, while the large power of two lacks accuracy. This paper presents a new solution, based on mixed-radix algebra, where the required ratio is formed by combining two different moduli. The programmable modulus solves the accuracy problem, while the large power of two modulus minimizes the spur content. In addition, the phase detector can be clocked at high speed.","PeriodicalId":183620,"journal":{"name":"2013 Proceedings of the ESSCIRC (ESSCIRC)","volume":"221 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132888459","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}

The circuit consists of a 5-stage ring oscillator which is injection locked to an external source. The different phases from the ring oscillator are linearly combined in a Phase Combiner (PC) based on the select signals produced by a state machine. These select signals are resynchronized with the phases to avoid glitches. This phase combined signal is then presented to a low-power dynamic divider set to division by an integer I. The result is a division by I.F where F is a multiple of the division step size 0.2. When used in a fractional-N PLL, this division step size reduction has the effect of reducing the quantization noise by 14 dB as compared to the case where a conventional multi-modulus divider (MMD) with division ratio step size of 1 is used.","PeriodicalId":183620,"journal":{"name":"2013 Proceedings of the ESSCIRC (ESSCIRC)","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121861009","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}
