PET requires high resolution, fast and low power multichannel analog to digital converter (ADC). A typical multichannel ADC for PET scanner architecture consists of several blocks. Most of the blocks can be designed by using fast, low power D flip-flops. A preset-able true single phase clocked (TSPC) D flip-flop shows numerous glitches (noise) at the output due to unnecessary toggling at the intermediate nodes. Preset-able modified TSPC (MTSPC) D flip-flop have been proposed as an alternative solution to alleviate this problem. However, the MTSPC D flip-flop requires one extra PMOS to suspend toggling of the intermediate nodes. In this work, we designed a 7-bit preset-able gray code counter by using the proposed D flip-flop. This work involves UMC 180 nm CMOS technology for preset-able 7-bit gray code counter where we achieved 1 GHz maximum operation frequency with most significant bit (MSB) delay 0.96 ns, power consumption 244.2 μW (micro watt) and power delay product (PDP) 0.23 pJ (Pico joule) from 1.8 V power supply.","PeriodicalId":374239,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Symposium on Devices, Circuits and Systems (ISDCS)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123722300","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 confinement of electrons in the momentum space is incorporated in sp3s∗ model to determine band structure of the nanotubes. The spherically symmetric r-point of nanotube energy bands is observed to split into cylindrically symmetric r′ and spherically symmetric r″ points due to confinement in transverse directions. Such splitting of r-point leads to increase the band gap ofnanotubes which further increases to a large extent with the decrease of nanotube core diameter and wall thickness.

The presented theoretical model promises both higher processing speed and accuracy.
