By leveraging time-interleaved integration and ping-pong operation, the proposed architecture decouples the number of FFE taps from the number of first-rank track-and-hold (T/H), significantly reducing the required number of jitter- and skew-sensitive sampling elements and unit Gm-cells compared to conventional interleaved discrete-time FFE implementations. As a result, the architecture offers a more compact and routing-friendly solution, mitigating parasitic and matching challenges in analog FFE design. As a proof of concept, a reconfigurable 4-tap PPI-FFE is implemented in 22-nm FDSOI technology targeting a 112-Gb/s PAM-4 receiver. Post-layout simulation results demonstrate effective ISI mitigation over a 32-dB-loss channel at Nyquist, with 26 mW power consumption for the core FFE and clock generation circuitry.

An approximate analytical model of a double-tuned transformer is developed to provide physical insight and enable efficient initial design for DBM, reducing the need for brute-force parameter sweeps. To overcome the limitations of transformer-based matching of a fixed transformation ratio across frequencies, a resonator-coupled inductor is proposed. It offers frequency-dependent inductance with lower effective inductance at higher frequencies, enabling dual-band operation, without requiring extra area compared to conventional inductors. The concepts are validated using a 79/135 GHz dual-mode three-stage power amplifier (PA) implemented in 28-nm bulk CMOS with joint active–passive co-design. At the operating frequency of 79 GHz, it provides 23 dB power gain, 8.7 dBm output 1-dB compression point (<inline-formula> <tex-math>$P_{mathrm {1dB}}$ </tex-math></inline-formula>), 11.1 dBm saturated output power (<inline-formula> <tex-math>$P_{mathrm {sat}}$ </tex-math></inline-formula>) with a peak power added efficiency (<inline-formula> <tex-math>$mathrm {PAE}_{max }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>) of 12.4%.

Beyond its use in non-volatile memories and neuromorphic architecture, the memristor is increasingly investigated for chaotic and nonlinear circuit design, where its analog hysteretic response can enable compact and energy-efficient chaotic systems. To date, memristor-based chaotic circuit designs have predominantly focused on binary (abrupt-switching) devices, while analog (gradual-switching) memristors, despite their advantages such as low operating current and high reproducibility, have not yet been explored for their potential to generate and sustain chaotic behavior. In this work, we use a self-rectifying BiFeO3 (BFO) memristor as a demonstrator to investigate how analog nonlinear dynamics can be harnessed for chaotic RC oscillator design. Based on experimental characterization of its frequency-dependent response, a physically grounded behavioral model is developed to accurately capture the device’s analog and self-rectifying characteristics, showing excellent agreement with measured data. Using this model, we adapt a low-frequency third-order RC chaotic circuit from the literature by replacing its diode with the BFO memristor and its parasitic capacitance, where the BFO device serves as the single nonlinear element responsible for chaotic signal generation. More importantly, the circuit parameters must be finely tuned to match the analog nonlinear dynamics of the BFO memristor with the RC network and ensure stable chaotic operation, ultimately yielding a fifth-order memristive oscillator. The proposed circuit exhibits rigorous chaos, as confirmed by Lyapunov exponent analysis, features a double-scroll attractor, and demonstrates a broad parameter range of chaotic behavior verified through bifurcation diagram analysis. This work represents the demonstration of chaos generation by leveraging, for the first time, the analog nonlinear dynamics in a self-rectifying memristor, establishing a direct link between device-level nonlinear dynamics and system-level chaotic behavior, and providing a technology-agnostic framework for the development of low-power, scalable chaotic circuits applicable to diverse applications.","PeriodicalId":93442,"journal":{"name":"IEEE open journal of circuits and systems","volume":"7 ","pages":"269-281"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11495342","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147796285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With SpiNNaker2, we present a chip that bridges the gap between deep networks and neuromorphic computing and allows for flexible exploration of computing approaches that combine both worlds. It features 152 processing elements equipped with an ARM M4F processor and dedicated accelerators, an extended SpiNNaker routing fabric for scalable event-based communication and a range of external interfaces for system integration, including Gbit Ethernet and an LPDDR4 memory interface. We demonstrate performance and efficiency of the SpiNNaker2 chip for neuromorphic and deep network workloads, as well as novel event-based computing approaches. For deep network workloads, the chip achieves up to 4.5 TOPS in high performance mode and up to 2.7 TOPS/W efficiency in high efficiency mode for INT8 workloads. The chip supports spiking neural networks with > 150000 neurons and > 1.8 billion synaptic events/s when simulated with a 1 ms time step. Its low baseline power of less than 250 mW allows for efficiency even under varying workload conditions, allowing to explore sparse and event-based modes of computation.

We analyze a dendrite circuit designed to model and implement shunting inhibition, a mechanism in which the dominant effect is a change in transmembrane conductance that produces multiplicative or divisive effects in the membrane potential’s response when integrating synaptic inputs. Building upon our previous work, this analysis focuses on the subthreshold-linear operating region of the dendrite circuit while also showing the effects of circuit biasing, which introduces the ability for approximating linear equations with an intercept term rather than performing multiplication alone. The real-time interaction between shunting conductance and biologically realistic current input is also studied, demonstrating the multiplicative effect of shunting inhibition using time-varying inputs of different modalities. The dendrite circuit is implemented on an analog VLSI platform and uses subthreshold transistors to emulate the electrical properties of membrane channels. This implementation serves as an analog computational unit for neuromorphic system design, exemplifying how biophysical mechanisms in dendrites can inform analog neuromorphic computation.","PeriodicalId":93442,"journal":{"name":"IEEE open journal of circuits and systems","volume":"7 ","pages":"144-157"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11406154","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147665438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
