They are often implemented as Incremental ADCs (IADCs) [1], [2] because of their efficient oversampling technique and low latency. In discrete-time incremental ADCs (DT-IADC) [2], the nonlinearity and charge injection of the sampling switch degrades the performance, and power hungry opamps are needed to provide fast and accurate settling for the switched capacitor circuits. These limitations may prevent the use of DT-IADCs in high resolution and wide bandwidth (BW) applications. Continuous-time incremental ADCs (CT-IADC) overcome these issues by removing the sampling switches, and CT integrators allow relaxed specifications for the opamps settling accuracy to save power. Hence, CT-IADCs enable higher resolution, faster conversion speed with lower power consumption.","PeriodicalId":286139,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Asian Solid-State Circuits Conference (A-SSCC)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129833106","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}

Previous NMS accelerators achieved optimization by stacking arithmetic logical units or computing consecutive iterations simultaneously [4] –[6]. However, several challenges exist, as shown in Fig. 1. First, the highly iterative process of NMS will either cause a high time or space complexity if the hardware resources are not designed properly. Second, the standard NMS process requires sorting of the bounding boxes by the score, and such sorting circuits occupy abundant resources and produce massive data movements.

In TRNG, entropy source is a critical module who provides the source of randomness of output bit stream. The unavoidable electrical noise in circuit becomes an ideal entropy source due to its unpredictability. Among the methods of capturing electrical noise, ring oscillator-based entropy source makes the TRNG most robust to deterministic noise and 1/f noise which means the strongest anti-interference capability, so it is simple in structure and easy to integrate [3]. Thus, great research attention has focused on ring oscillator-based TRNGs [3] –[7]. In [4], a high-speed TRNG with 100Mbps output bit rate was proposed, but it took up too much power and area. A TRNG based on tetrahedral ring oscillator was proposed in [5]. Its power consumption was very low but the output bit rate was also very low. A ring oscillator-based TRNG with low output bit rate but high power was proposed in [7]. In a word, none of the above architectures achieve an appropriate compromise between bit rate and power consumption. This work presents a new feedback architecture of TRNG based on tetrahedral ring oscillator. The output random bit stream generates a relative random control voltage that acts on the transmission gates in oscillator through a feedback loop, thus increasing phase jitter of the oscillator and improving output bit rate. Furthermore, an XOR chain-based post-processing unit is added to eliminate the statistical deviations and correlations between raw bits.","PeriodicalId":286139,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Asian Solid-State Circuits Conference (A-SSCC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125873101","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}

A routine medical checkup often cannot provide the timely mediation required for CNDs. A chronic attack consists of pre-ictal, ictal, and post-ictal stages, while an effective intervention necessitates CND detection and remedial response during the pre-ictal stage.

To reduce the complexity in such a large-scale system, the control and readout circuitries have been proposed to be placed at the 4 K stage of dilution refrigerators [1]. CMOS technology is commonly used to leverage its scaling to enable large integration of control and readout circuitries with qubits. However, the high-fidelity readout operations require low noise amplifiers (LNAs) with a noise temperature of a few Kelvins. This necessitates the usage of HEMT and parametric amplifiers [2]. Recently reported CMOS LNAs are still far away from attaining such good performance [3–5]. Thus, this is one of the greatest challenges on the way to the fully integrated CMOS readout. Additionally, due to the limited cooling power of dilution refrigerators, low-power solutions are needed for achieving a very good noise performance at 4 K.

A switched-capacitor (SC) DC-DC converter can achieve high power conversion efficiency (PCE) and power density at the hundreds-of-mW. Several reconfigurable SC topologies emerged to generate multiple voltage conversion ratios (VCRs) systematically with lower conduction and parasitic losses in steady state [1]–[4]. However, during VCR transitions, the voltage imbalance among the flying capacitors (CFLY) can induce charge redistribution loss. This hard-VCR-transition loss inevitably hurts the overall efficiency and remains unresolved. This work proposes an arithmetic progression (AP) SC DC-DC converter topology for systematic rational VCR generation while featuring soft VCR transitions. It demonstrates fixed voltages with each CFLY irrespective of VCR change to eliminate the CFLY voltage rebalance effect. The proposed AP topology also achieves theoretical optimum in terms of the steady-state slow-/fast switching-limited losses. Due to the inherent property of two-phase quasi-symmetric output charge (QOUT) delivery, it ensures a low output ripple without using a conventional dual-branch converter architecture. We further propose a cross-coupled bootstrapping (XCBS) gate driver, operating at half of switching frequency (fSW/2), to control the flying power switches adaptively. Realizing step-down VCRs of 5:4/3/2/1, the proposed AP converter reaches a measured peak PCE of 93.7% and a maximum output current of 400 mA. Featuring soft VCR transitions, it demonstrates an average PCE of up to 89% under a periodic VCR transition (fVCR_tran) at 100 kHz.","PeriodicalId":286139,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Asian Solid-State Circuits Conference (A-SSCC)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122649445","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 performance improvement of 5G necessities a variety of different technologies including phased array technique. A T/R switch is widely used in phased arrays to reduce the number of antennas. It is one of the most critical modules in the phased array since it influences the performance of the output power for TX and noise Figure (NF) for RX directly. Conventional T/R switches are based on $lambda /4$ transmission line, which is area consuming in lower millimeter-wave frequency range [1]. Recently, lumped equivalent transmission lines based on inductors [2] and transformers [3] are employed to reduce the chip area. However, the lumped transmission lines are usually narrow-band. Furthermore, the inductors or transformers still occupy extra chip area. To address this issue, a compact T/R switch co-designed with PA’s output match network and LNA’s input match network is proposed. Leveraging the existing transformers in the two match-networks, only one extra transistor switch is needed in this compact T/R switch, which greatly reduces the chip area consumption and therefore the insertion loss.","PeriodicalId":286139,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Asian Solid-State Circuits Conference (A-SSCC)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117304741","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}

Such concept of event driven processing has been used to reduce system energy for regular cameras as well [2]. However, an object typically occupies a fraction of the full image frame (Fig. 1) leading to a significant spatial redundancy in the image. Hence, an energy-efficient hardware is required to detect the region of interests (RoIs) in the valid frames to trigger an object recognition engine only for the RoIs. For a binary image, the region proposal can be performed by the connected component labeling (CCL) algorithm [2]. However, CCL scans the image in a raster fashion to calculate the ROIs leading to longer execution time and higher energy dissipation due to enormous data transfer. On the contrary, emerging in-memory [3], [4] and near-memory [5] computing approaches are a way to eliminate the data transfer cost and latency, promising further energy savings. In this paper, we propose 9T-SRAM based near and in-memory computing region proposal integrated circuit (RPIC) leveraging the $1 -mathrm{D}$ projections of the objects on the vertical and horizontal axes.

By using the fault tolerance of NN accelerators to avoid the error correction, they increased energy efficiency a lot. However, NN has limited tolerance to timing errors since a little timing errors will cause serious loss of accuracy, for example, up to 3% accuracy loss in MNIST [2]. Body swapping and adaptive clock techniques have also been adopted to reduce the accuracy loss [3– 4]. Traditional AVFS system monitors the most critical paths and then decreases the voltage until reaching point of first failure (PoFF).

A time-to-digital converter (TDC) is the key component in time-based circuits, which is used to quantize the time interval between two rising edges, Start and Stop signal. The TDCs are widely used in frequency generation (digital phase-locked loop) [1], data conversion (time-based ADC) [2] and energy-efficient neural network acceleration. The most elementary TDC is the delay-line TDC, which is also the essential component of other TDCs [3] [4], having the merit of simple-structure and low-power. However, the limitation of the minimum intrinsic delay of a single delay-element makes the realization of a high-resolution delay-line TDC difficult. Moreover, its area and power consumption increase exponentially with the quantization bits, while conversion speed is opposite.
