In this paper, to increase the throughput cost-effectively, two novel computational schemes are applied to design the K-Best detector. To reduce the number of visiting leaf nodes, we propose the pre-screening based enumeration, and almost half of leaf nodes are reduced for fast searches. To reduce the complexity of the sorting scheme, we apply the simplified Batcher's odd-even sorting algorithm (SBOESA) without sorting all outputs, and the required comparators are reduced through the simplified fast sorting design. The proposed 4×4 MIMO K-Best detector at 64QAM is implemented by TSMC 90nm process. The throughput of the proposed MIMO detector achieves up to 4.4Gbps. Compared with other designs, the proposed K-Best detector provides larger throughputs and performs superior hardware efficiency.","PeriodicalId":369130,"journal":{"name":"VLSI Design, Automation and Test(VLSI-DAT)","volume":"76 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127182331","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 SR-GRO employs a replica supply noise monitoring circuit which tracks supply noise and enables feed-forward error cancellation over broad spectrum.

It is increasingly clear that performance and capacity improvements predicated on Moore's law will not be sufficient to meet projected overall capacity demands in a networked society - in fact more than Moore will be needed. One way to meet these demands is enabled by 2.5D and 3D integration on chip-level. In this note we discuss technical and financial drivers of 2.5/3D from a system integration perspective. Further trends and different approaches in this field are discussed with pros and cons as well with technical and business model challenges. The note also touches on how these integration techniques can be even further strengthened when combined with on-chip or “near-chip” integration of photonics. This combination seems to have the potential to deliver technologies that can meet future capacity and performance requirements given other technical constraints e.g. power consumption.","PeriodicalId":369130,"journal":{"name":"VLSI Design, Automation and Test(VLSI-DAT)","volume":"208 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121198101","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 is important for chips manufactured in advanced technologies, as systematic failures are getting harder to detect by conventional structural tests. However, due to long test time and extra human efforts, the cost for SLT is high. A possible way to replace SLT without quality loss is to identify SLT failure suspects with stress tests. In this work, we apply 60,000 structural stress test patterns to the CPU blocks of a real SOC product, using 20 stressed voltage-frequency corners. We try to identify the correlation between the stress test data and SLT-pass/fail results of the CPU blocks. By the proposed differential feature-based methodology, 32 outliers are identified, which are assumed to be CPU-fail chips. Because of the lack of exact CPU-fail chip IDs for verification, the identified chip IDs are compared with the IDs identified from previous works, which use the same data but different machine-learning features and method for the same purpose. After comparison, 30 out of a total of 33 CPU-fail suspects matched. Although this does not immediately imply that the SLT can be replaced by the structural stress tests, it shows more evidence that test data mining can be further explored for test time reduction and/or quality improvement.","PeriodicalId":369130,"journal":{"name":"VLSI Design, Automation and Test(VLSI-DAT)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130859455","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 success of SoC design methodology relies on the design reuse of existing cores (IPs). The tasks of integrating the cores and creating successful tests for the SoC should not be overlooked. These tasks may need a considerable amount of time from the designers and are inherently error-prone. Conventionally, designers have to understand the test requirement of all the IPs used in the SoC. A test plan is then created and the corresponding test wrapper for the IPs is added and integrated into the SoC design. Besides IPs test integration, designers typically need to plan for the scan DfT, test compression, test wrapper, memory BIST, and boundary scan. The above tasks are pretty standard, yet they are tedious and error-prone.","PeriodicalId":369130,"journal":{"name":"VLSI Design, Automation and Test(VLSI-DAT)","volume":"2007 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116901745","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}

Thermal analysis for 3D ICs is urgently required to assist system designers at the early phase of design to identify hot zones. Most thermal analyses obtain detailed temperature distribution by large matrix operations, and hence reduce analysis performance. Accordingly, we propose a compressed and combined sparse row (CCSR) matrix format to be used in the proposed effective matrix compression (EMC) method for matrix multiplication on GPU. The experimental results show EMC using CCSR is on average 44.93 times faster than matrix multiplication without any special compression format and on average at least 3.09 times faster than other compression formats.","PeriodicalId":369130,"journal":{"name":"VLSI Design, Automation and Test(VLSI-DAT)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124256523","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}
