A conventional ROM used NAND bit-lines with a source-line scheme to conquer noise issues and a code-inversion scheme to improve performance. This work adopts OAI bit-lines to increase the Ion/Ioff ratio for lowering the Vmin. It reduces energy and power consumption by removing source drivers and code-inversion circuitry. The proposed 256-Kb 90nm OAI-ROM operates at 0.22V and achieves 62% and 70% reduction in active energy and standby power, respectively, compared to the NAND-ROM.","PeriodicalId":235460,"journal":{"name":"2020 International Symposium on VLSI Design, Automation and Test (VLSI-DAT)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127619036","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 get high throughput, we use the MDC architecture to design the FFT processor. In addition, we added the 2-epoch architecture [1] to reduce the area of FIFOs in the MDC processor. Since the input to the MDC FFT is not in natural order, we need to design a reorder circuit. We proposed a data-scheduling algorithm that allows the reorder circuit to use the least number of memory banks to achieve area reduction. Furthermore, we proposed a twiddle-factorgenerator circuit for the 2-epoch architecture. It can effectively reduce the number of twiddle factors that need to be stored. We designed different specifications of FFT processors using the method described in this paper, and then synthesized using the TSMC 90 nm CMOS technology high-Vt standard cell library. Our processors can operate above 450MHz and the throughput is $Pcdot R$, where P is the parallelism of hardware and the R is the operating frequency.","PeriodicalId":235460,"journal":{"name":"2020 International Symposium on VLSI Design, Automation and Test (VLSI-DAT)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121128862","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 dilemma becomes more critical in multilevel flash memory due to the tight spacing between adjacent programmed levels. Error correction codes with stronger protection capability are usually adopted to all flash pages as a solution. However, the growth of raw bit error rate (RBER) induced by increasing P/E cycles will lead to uneven distribution of errors. Applying uniform ECC protection capability for all flash pages might incur unnecessary hardware overhead and latency. In this paper, fault-aware error correction code (PECC) techniques are proposed to cure these drawbacks of uniform protection. The main idea is to upgrade the ECC protection levels for flash pages when their correction slack is below the specified threshold. An ECC SRAM and an ECC CAM are used for storing extra check bits and accessing purposes. According to experimental results, we can enhance the reliability of flash memories with negligible hardware cost.","PeriodicalId":235460,"journal":{"name":"2020 International Symposium on VLSI Design, Automation and Test (VLSI-DAT)","volume":"253 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121883759","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}
