While average accuracy loss is often used to evaluate the impact of such errors, this metric may not be reliable for safety-critical systems where worst-case performance is crucial. In this work, we present a comprehensive statistical analysis of the variability in the accuracy of quantized neural networks. We conduct experiments on two well-known neural network architectures, LeNet-5 and ResNet20, using both 4-bit and 8- bit quantization, and measure the worst-case impact of errors on model accuracy. Our results demonstrate that worst-case variation is much more significant than the impact on average accuracy and that 8-bit quantization is more susceptible to errors. We also investigate the potential of intra-layer mixed error injection to mitigate the effects of errors and show that it can improve the worst-case accuracy of neural networks.","PeriodicalId":239306,"journal":{"name":"2023 19th International Conference on Synthesis, Modeling, Analysis and Simulation Methods and Applications to Circuit Design (SMACD)","volume":"617 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116327810","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 proposed design is to be employed in capsule endoscopy with optical imaging or similar biomedical systems. The design is implemented in 180 nm CMOS technology with the performance targets of low area, low power, low complexity, high gain, and low noise. Alternative feedback resistor design approaches are proposed to achieve lower dispersion in transimpedance gain (TI gain), where one of the approaches proves superior in terms of area and performance. The design achieves 96 dBΩ gain with sub-0.6 dBΩ standard deviation in post-layout Monte Carlo simulations. The total input capacitance is 10 pF (from the photodiode), and the achieved −3 dB cut-off frequency is 50 MHz. The achieved total integrated input noise is 0.63 μA, and the total power consumption is 0.26 mW. Compared to similar works, the design improves power consumption and complexity without losing noise, and the TI gain performance considerably by keeping a narrow bandwidth, which is sufficient for the target operation.","PeriodicalId":239306,"journal":{"name":"2023 19th International Conference on Synthesis, Modeling, Analysis and Simulation Methods and Applications to Circuit Design (SMACD)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128462410","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 carries a discussion on the research lines required to implement a tool that automatically produces, from the system-level until the ready-for-tape-out layout, complex PMUs when given a set of specifications. In that flow, at the IP level, simulation-based techniques are seen as a valuable solution to pursue optimal sizing and layout, and thus, for one of the charge pumps (CPs) required in the PMU, an academic tool is applied to determine the tradeoffs between performance and the, severely constrained, layout area. In the last step, a worst-case corner (WCC) optimization on a 45- and 99-dimensional design and performance spaces, respectively, derived from 9 time-consuming transient analysis of each candidate solution, provided a thorough analysis between worst-case efficiency, output resistance, and rise and fall times, impossible to perform in the manual design. The obtained insights on the design space will be used to speed-up the process of devising a solution for tape-out.","PeriodicalId":239306,"journal":{"name":"2023 19th International Conference on Synthesis, Modeling, Analysis and Simulation Methods and Applications to Circuit Design (SMACD)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125245554","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}
