Fourth-generation wireless communication systems (4G) will have totally different requirements than what front-end designers have been coping with up to now. Designs must be targe...
Digital implementation of analog function is becoming attractive in CMOS ICs, given the low supply voltage of ultra-scaled process. The conventional fractional-N frequency synthes...
We describe a programmable multi-chip VLSI neuronal system that can be used for exploring spike-based information processing models. The system consists of a silicon retina, a PIC...
Abstract In order to perform an on-chip test for characterizing both static and transmission parameters of embedded analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), this paper presents an osci...
With aggressive reductions in feature sizes and the integration of multiple functionalities on the same die, bottlenecks due to I/O pin limitations have become a severe issue in to...
