Wavefront correction is essential for reliable long distance, near-ground laser communication as well as for imaging extended objects over large distances. Crucial to adaptively correcting the wavefront is a performance metric that can be directly evaluated from the acquired image or received laser beam, to provide real-time feedback to the controller adapting the wavefront. Custom VLSI controllers and sensors are a good match to the requirements of high resolution, real-time adaptive optical systems. In this paper we introduce two VLSI focal plane sensors that supply image and beam quality metrics to an adaptive controller that performs parallel perturbative stochastic gradient descent on a spatial phase modulator in the control loop. For imaging applications, we designed an image quality metric chip that reports the high spatial frequency energy content of the received image. For laser communications applications, we designed a beam variance metric chip that calculates the compactness of the transmitted or received beam as well as its centroid location. We present experimental results from both sensor chips and demonstrate the beam variance metric chip in the feedback loop of an adaptive optics laser receiver.","PeriodicalId":424368,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 2001 Conference on Advanced Research in VLSI.

In other words, determining what portions of the design are best implemented using analog and digital circuitry. In this work, we target reconfigurable mixed-signal systems composed of field-programmable analog and digital arrays. These field-programmable systems are invaluable for rapid hardware prototyping and evaluation. We begin with system behavior specified using a signal-/data-flow graph representation. This is partitioned into analog and digital domains, and then mapped onto the target mixed-signal hardware. The solution must satisfy constraints imposed by the target mixed-signal architecture on available configurable resources, available data converters, their resolution and speed, and I/O pins. The quality of the solution is evaluated based two metrics, namely feasibility and performance cost. The former is a measure of the validity of the solution with respect to the constraints. The latter measures the performance of the system based on area, bandwidth and noise.","PeriodicalId":424368,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 2001 Conference on Advanced Research in VLSI.

The signal to interconnect usage of a differential signal is (n/2) balanced signals per n interconnects. A method is described which can increase the interconnect usage to (n-1) balanced signals per n wires. The additional bandwidth is achieved by inserting signal information into the common mode signal between two or more interconnects. Simulations in 0.251 /spl mu/m CMOS technology have indicated that bit rates of 1 Gb/s are achievable using the common mode signaling technique. These additional balanced signals can be sent in the same or opposing directions to the original information. Several schemes are described including voltage and current signaling and a bussed structure is proposed. A simple receiver structure is used to extract the common mode signal.","PeriodicalId":424368,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 2001 Conference on Advanced Research in VLSI.

The area of this multiplier is bounded by N rather than N/sup 2/ as seen in more traditional combinational parallel array designs, where N is the word size. Energy has a polynomial growth with word size, but has a coefficient that is much smaller than that seen in a combinational array design. Although the multiplier is self-timed, it can be embedded in a synchronous system appearing as a combinational element. This paper presents latency, area, and energy estimates for the multiplier implemented at various word sizes, and compares these numbers with a traditional combinational array multiplier. The self-timed multiplier uses 1/3 the energy and 1/7 the area of the combinational design for a 24-bit word size.","PeriodicalId":424368,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 2001 Conference on Advanced Research in VLSI.

When applied to static CMOS, OPL retains the restoring character of the logic family. Speedups of 2/spl times/ to 3/spl times/ over (optimized) conventional static CMOS are demonstrated for a variety of circuits, ranging from chains of gates, to datapath circuits, and to random logic benchmarks. Such speedups are obtained using identical netlists without remapping. When applied to pseudo-nMOS and dynamic families in combination with remapping to wide-input NORs, OPL yields even greater speedups over static CMOS. In this paper we present a novel 64-bit adder design implemented in OPL, using a combination of 8-bit Carry Look Ahead (CLA) and Carry Select (CS). The very fast wide-input OPL NORs enabled the use of 8-bit CLA units instead of the usual 4-bit. Using a process-independent metric for comparison, this adder is twice as fast as previously published 64-bit adders.","PeriodicalId":424368,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 2001 Conference on Advanced Research in VLSI.

A resulting control unit consists of small asynchronous controllers and has complete separation of 'execution controllers' and 'execution order controllers'. This distributive feature leads to significant improvements in the aspects of area, performance and synthesis time of derived control circuits.","PeriodicalId":424368,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 2001 Conference on Advanced Research in VLSI.

We then combine the circuit building blocks into a more complicated circuit that normalizes a current by the square root of the sum of the squares (vector sum) of the currents.
