High efficiency low voltage DC-DC conversion is a key enabler to the design of power-efficient integrated circuits. Typically a star configuration of the DC-DC converters, where o...
The number and magnitude of process variation sources are increasing as we scale further into the nano regime. Today's most successful response surface methods limit us to lo...
Abstract-- The PPV is a robust phase domain macromodel for oscillators. It has been proven to predict oscillators' responses correctly under small signal perturbations, and ca...

We present an efficient technique for finding the mean and variance of the full-chip leakage of a candidate design, while considering logic-structures and both die-to-die and with...
Reseeding is used to improve fault coverage of pseudorandom testing. The seed corresponds to the initial state of the PRPG before filling the scan chain. In this paper, we present...
