Due to larger buses (length, width) and deep sub-micron effects where coupling capacitances between bus lines are in the same order of magnitude as base capacitances, power consum...
Content addressable memory (CAM) is widely used in many applications that require fast table lookup. Due to the parallel comparison feature and high frequency of lookup, however, ...
Device optimization considering supply voltage Vdd and threshold voltage Vt tuning does not increase chip area but has a great impact on power and performance in the nanometer tec...
