To overcome these issues, Network-onChip (NoC) based communication architecture is introduced. In the nanoscale era NoCs are prone to faults which results in performance degradation and un-reliability. Hence efficient fault-tolerant methods are required to make the system reliable in contrast to diverse component failures. This paper presents a flexible spare core placement in torus topology based faulttolerant NoC design. The communications related to the failed core is taken care by selecting the best position for a spare core in the torus network. By considering this we propose a metaheuristic based Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique to find suitable position for the spare core that minimizes the communication cost. We have experimented with several application benchmarks reported in the literature by varying the network size and by varying the fault-percentage in the network. The results show significant reduction in terms of communication cost compared to other approaches.","PeriodicalId":384458,"journal":{"name":"2018 14th Conference on Ph.D. Research in Microelectronics and Electronics (PRIME)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133278144","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}

Furthermore, a Helpee StrongARM circuit is introduced which enables operation at an input voltage below the threshold voltage of the transistor. An enhanced 1-out-of-15 decoder converts the thermometer code from the StrongARM and the Helpee StrongARM comparators into a 1-out-of-n code.

The analytical model avoids the need of time consuming parametric sweeps on the aspect ratios of the various transistors of the delay element in order to optimize it.

This is no longer possible due to the ever increasing number of EM failures in the future. An EM-aware physical synthesis could reduce the number of critical locations but the layout complexities prevent this from already being used. To solve this problem, we propose a novel method to discretize placement and routing solutions to enable a fast EM analysis. In addition, we suggest adjustments in the placement and routing step to enhance the EM robustness based on early analysis results. In contrast to the standard approach of running a numerical simulation outside the physical design step and after the synthesis, we perform most of the analysis steps within our placement and routing tools to consider the results; thus enabling early and specialized EM-robust solutions. Particularly, our methodology exploits layout structures to enable an efficient discretization inside the geometrical representations of synthesis tools. We demonstrate how to reduce the discretization effort significantly while achieving sufficient accuracy to improve EM robustness.","PeriodicalId":384458,"journal":{"name":"2018 14th Conference on Ph.D. Research in Microelectronics and Electronics (PRIME)","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129428410","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}

Instead of stacking several level oftransistors to implement a two inputs XOR gate, a p-type differential pair is used to steer the current in n-type differential pairs through current mirrors. The proposed topology allows to reduce the minimum supply voltage of MCML XOR gates while guaranteeing a fully current mode behavior as in the conventional XOR gate. The proposed topology has been compared against the conventional and triple tail MCML XOR gates. Simulation results referring to a $40mathrm {n}mathrm {m}$ CMOS technology for $V_{DD}=1mathrm {V}$ confirm that the XOR gate presented in this work exhibits a lower propagation delay than the previously published low voltage MCML XOR gate. Furthermore both theoretical analysis and simulation results in a $40mathrm {n}mathrm {m}$ process show that the proposed topology is able to work with a VDD as low as $0.~65mathrm {V}$ whereas state of the art topologies are not usable below $0.~8mathrm {V}.$","PeriodicalId":384458,"journal":{"name":"2018 14th Conference on Ph.D. Research in Microelectronics and Electronics (PRIME)","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131945969","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}
