However, with increasing process variation and decreasing supply voltage, a big design challenge of embedded STT-MRAMs is to guarantee negligible read-disturbance and high yield. In this paper, to deal with the read reliability challenge, a sensing circuit with strong positive feedback and a high sensing margin is proposed. It improves the sensing margin (SM) by 10.42×/3.3× and a with 1.24×/1.59× lower read energy at iso-sensing time (2ns) in comparison with the conventional sensing scheme and the state-of-the art current-sampling-based sensing circuit.

Even though approaches like Field-Coupled Nanocomputing allow computations near the fundamental energy limits, there is a demand for strategies that enable the recycling of bits' energy to avoid thermalization of information. In this direction, we propose a new kind of partially reversible systems by exploiting fan-outs in logic networks. We have also introduced a computationally efficient method to evaluate the gain obtained by our strategy. Simulation results for state-of-the-art benchmarks indicate an average reduction of the fundamental energy limit by 17% without affecting the delay. If delay is not the main concern, the average reduction reaches even 51%. To the best of our knowledge, this work presents the first post-synthesis strategy to reduce fundamental energy limits for Field-Coupled Nanocomputing circuits.","PeriodicalId":6569,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS)","volume":"30 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77432640","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 image processing is performed inside each pixel during the integration time over a dynamic range up to 98dB, thanks to a pixel-level auto-exposure control. The contrast detection relies on the estimation of the time difference between two pixels thresholded against two reference voltages.

This paper presents a low power PUF design with high reliability against temperature and supply voltage variations. A response bit is extracted by comparing a pair of identically designed subthreshold voltage references. The voltage difference due to device mismatch is digitized and registered in a bidirectional counter, which can be used to identify and filter out the unstable response bits. The readout circuit works in tandem with the proposed double sampling technique to reduce the bias of components that are not the main entropy source of response bits. The proposed design is evaluated by extensive simulation using standard 65 nm CMOS process. It consumes merely 0.16 pJ/bit. The simulated uniqueness is an almost ideal 50.03%. Due to the intrinsic stability of voltage references, the reliability of its native response is 98.17% for the supply voltage variation from 1 V to 1.4 V and 97.60% for the temperature variation from 0 ° C to 80 °C.

Communication of Address-Events (AEs) between neuromorphic cores/chips typically requires two parallel digital signal buses for Input/Output (I/O) operations. This requirement can become very expensive for large-scale systems in terms of both dedicated I/O pins and power consumption. In this paper we present a compact fully asynchronous event-driven transmitter/receiver block that is both power efficient and I/O efficient. This block implements high-throughput low-latency bi-directional communication through a parallel AER bus. We show that by placing the proposed AE transceiver block in two separate chips and linking them by a single AER bus, we can drive the communication and switch the transmission direction of the shared bus on a single event basis, from either side with low-latency. We present experimental results that validate the circuits proposed and demonstrate reliable bi-directional event transmission with high-throughput. The proposed AE block, integrated in a neuromorphic chip fabricated using a 28 nm FDSOI process, occupies a silicon die area of 140 μm × 70 μm. The experimental measurements show that the event-driven AE block combined with standard digital I/Os has a direction switch latency of 5 ns and can achieve a worst-case bi-directional event transmission throughput of 28.6M Events/second while consuming 11 pJ per event (26-bit) delivery.","PeriodicalId":6569,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS)","volume":"73 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83933784","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}

Heterogeneous highly parallel architectures enhanced with dedicated accelerators tuned to specific applications, near-threshold computing, and recently approximate computing are examples of these new approaches. In this context the memory part was relatively untouched. However, memories play a central role in any computing system, are a major source of power consumption, and limit in many applications the overall compute performance. In this paper, we focus mainly on Dynamic Random Access Memories (DRAMs), which are today's most prominent external memories. In transprecision computing we address the DRAM memory challenge by several new approaches that are strongly related to the new techniques known on the compute side. In particular, these are the concept of approximate DRAM, advanced power-down modes and the integration of application knowledge into the memory system.","PeriodicalId":6569,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS)","volume":"16 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76761394","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}

Our method makes use of aging-sensitive physical unclonable function to enable a two-tier activation of ICs in split test flow to track chip supply after production tests.
