The filters were realized as balanced Gm-C biquadratic filters to achieve low current consumption. High linearity and constant wide bandwidth are achieved by using a new transconductance (Gm) cell. The PGA has a voltage gain varying from 0 to 65dB, while maintaining a constant bandwidth. A filter tuning circuit that requires an accurate time base but no external components is presented. With a 1-Vrms differential input and output, the filter achieves -85dB THD and a 78dB signal-to-noise ratio. Both the filter and PGA were implemented in a 0.18mum 1P6M n-well CMOS process.

However, it is very hard to determine whether sufficient properties have been specified or not. In this paper, we propose a transition traversal coverage method for a subset of CTL to evaluate the completeness of properties. With this method, we can detect the transitions which are not verified by any property. It is more comprehensive and accurate than state-based coverage metric. We avoid generating the perturbed implementation by directly traversing transitions based on the semantics of CTL formulas. Experimental results show that the proposed method can discover subtle coverage holes with low computation cost.","PeriodicalId":431034,"journal":{"name":"2005 6th International Conference on ASIC","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126159205","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}

Compared with previous work, this architecture has following characteristics: First, it supports all block modes and fractional samples adopted in H.264/AVC standard. Second, no extra initiation and finalization time is required, which enhances the system performance. Third, a pipelined finite impulse filter (FIR) is used to replace the traditional adder tree, which increases the system clock frequency. Because this design applies full pipelined architecture, it can generate one half sample in every cycle and eight quarter samples in every nine cycles with little pipeline latency. In fact, this architecture with minor revision could be adopted in MPEG-4 and other video coding standards. The design is implemented with TSMC 0.18/spl mu/m CMOS technology.
