The comparator uses intentional circuit asymmetry to generate precise threshold or offset voltages. Four offset stages with resolutions of 15.5 μV, 316 μV, 7.9 mV and 29.85 mV are superimposed to yield a 282.6 mVpp tuning range. The high resolution is obtained by exploiting submicron deviations in device dimensions. The comparator has been designed and tested in 0.13 μm digital CMOS. DC measurements yield 14 bit resolution with 0.38 INL and 0.41 DNL. AC measurements at 6.25 MHz correlate well with the DC measurements. Noise is bandlimited to allow for sampling up to 50 MHz.","PeriodicalId":203604,"journal":{"name":"2013 26th Symposium on Integrated Circuits and Systems Design (SBCCI)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129939000","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}

However, these algorithms present two important constraints: (1) they do not consider incompletely specified Boolean functions (ISF); and (2) they are not suitable for binate functions. To overcome the first drawback, an algorithm that finds RO expressions for ISF, whenever possible, is proposed. With respect to the second limitation, we propose a domain transformation that splits existing binate variables into two independent unate variables. Such domain transformation leads to ISF, which can be efficiently factored by applying the proposed algorithm. The combination of both contributions gives optimal results for a novel broader class of Boolean functions called read-polarity-once (RPO) functions, where each polarity (positive and negative) of a variable appears at most once in the factored form. Experimental results carried out over ISCAS'85 benchmark circuits have shown that RPO functions are significantly more frequent than RO functions.","PeriodicalId":203604,"journal":{"name":"2013 26th Symposium on Integrated Circuits and Systems Design (SBCCI)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122393165","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}

In order to reduce area overhead without compromising the fault making coverage, TMR can use approximated circuits approach to generate redundant modules that are optimized compared to the original module. Initial study of this technique has shown that it is possible to reach a good balance between fault coverage and area overhead cost, making this technique a good solution for some cases. In this work, we do a further analysis of this approach by using complex gates and employing different transistor topologies and inputs permutation. Results show that area overhead can be reduced to 150% with fault coverage close to 99%.","PeriodicalId":203604,"journal":{"name":"2013 26th Symposium on Integrated Circuits and Systems Design (SBCCI)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123993205","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}

Multi-objective information and the corners of the fabrication process are used in the synthesizer to simultaneously optimize impedance matching, performance parameters and circuit robustness. The synthesis approach combines the Simulated Annealing algorithm with the crossover operator and an automatic weight adjustment technique. This combination allows the optimizer to escape local minimums and therefore successfully achieve the LNA specifications. Two solutions of the synthesis are presented and the performance is verified through simulations using a 180 nm CMOS process. The first 2.45 GHz LNA solution achieved a Noise Figure of 1.95 dB, a S21 of 13.6 dB, a S11 of -17 dB, draining a 4.6 mA current. The second solution, which starts from the final first solution and adds a linearity constraint, achieved a Noise Figure of 2.04 dB, a S21 of 12.89 dB, a S11 of -25 dB, a PIIP3 of -7.8 dBm with a current of 4.1 mA.

Further, image sensors in mainstream complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology are preferred because they are the lowest cost and easiest/fastest option to implement. For CMOS image sensors, a key issue is their noise behavior. Therefore, we have studied the noise characteristics of CMOS image sensors operating in time domain. Two important noise sources are the reset noise and integration noise. The reset noise is due to the reset in CMOS image sensors operating in voltage domain. The integration noise is that accumulated during light integration and was found to be the constant, independent of light intensity. Our circuit analysis shows that the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is also constant and independent of light intensity. At low light levels the constant SNR is higher compared to others CMOS image sensors presented in the literature. We have implemented a time domain CMOS image sensor in AMS CMOS 0.35um technology. Our measurements results show that the SNR level is approximately constant to 43dB.","PeriodicalId":203604,"journal":{"name":"2013 26th Symposium on Integrated Circuits and Systems Design (SBCCI)","volume":"123 9","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114010182","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}

This paper presents a VLSI architecture that can be configured to compute the SAD of 4×4 pixel blocks with no subsampling or with 2:1 or 4:1 subsampling (pel decimation). The proposed architecture was synthesized for 130nm, 90nm, 65nm and 45nm standard cell libraries assuming both nominal and Low-Vdd/High-Vt (LH) cases for maximum and a given target throughput. The impacts of subsampling and Low-Vdd/High-Vt on delay, power and energy efficiency are analyzed. In a total of 16 syntheses, the 45nm/LH configurable SAD architecture achieved the highest energy efficiency for target frequency when operating in pel decimation 4:1, spending only 2.19pJ for each 4×4 block, which corresponds to about 20.64 times less energy than the 130nm/nominal configurable architecture operating in full SAD mode. Aside the improvements achieved by using LH, pel decimation solely was responsible for energy reductions of 40% and 60% when 2:1 and 4:1 subsamplings are chosen, respectively, in the configurable architecture.","PeriodicalId":203604,"journal":{"name":"2013 26th Symposium on Integrated Circuits and Systems Design (SBCCI)","volume":"2006 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127634762","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}

This occurs because technology down-scaling continuously increases the logic sensitivity of silicon devices to such effects. Contrary to what happens in synchronous circuits, delay variations induced by radiation usually have no impact on asynchronous quasi-delay insensitive (QDI) combinational logic blocks, but in case of storage logic, bit flips may corrupt the circuit state with no recovery solution, even when using asynchronous circuits. This work proposes a new set of hardening techniques against single event effects applicable to asynchronous networks-on-chip. It presents practical case studies of use for these techniques and evaluates them in close to real life situations. Obtained results show that the achieved increase in asynchronous network-on-chip robustness has the potential to leverage this communication architecture solution as the main choice for the next generations of complex silicon devices on advanced nodes technologies such as 32 nm, 28 nm and below.","PeriodicalId":203604,"journal":{"name":"2013 26th Symposium on Integrated Circuits and Systems Design (SBCCI)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122855179","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}
