The Monte Carlo (MC) simulation is a well-known solution to the statistical analysis of analog circuits in the presence of device mismatch. Despite MC's superior accuracy comp...
— The work presented in this paper is about the design of current-controlled oscillators (ICO). Two ICOs are proposed. Aiming at reducing the duration of the short-circuit curren...
Physical Unclonable Functions (PUF) and True Random Number Generators (TRNG) are two very useful components in secure system design. PUFs can be used to extract chip-unique signat...
A new approach in hierarchical optimisation is presented which is capable of optimising both the performance and yield of an analogue design. Performance and yield trade offs are ...
