Abstract—This article discusses system-level techniques to optimize the power-performance trade-off in subthreshold circuits and presents a uniform platform for implementing ultr...
This paper presents ISCLEs, a novel and robust analog design method that promises to scale with Moore’s Law, by doing boosting-style importance sampling on digital-sized circuit...
This paper presents sizing rules for basic building blocks in analog bipolar circuit design. Sizing rules efficiently capture design knowledge on the technology-specific level o...
—A new biasing technique called “local biasing” of transistors is used to design analog integrated circuit amplifiers, or any other analog ICs. The technique is based on desi...
In this paper, a new approach to analog test design based on the circuit design process, called Characteristic Observation Inference (COI), is presented. In many situations, it is...
