Silicon technology based nonvolatile memories (NVM) have achieved widespread adoption for code and data storage applications. In the last 30 years, the traditional floating gate ...
The high transistor density afforded by modern VLSI processes have enabled the design of embedded processors that use clustered execution units to deliver high levels of performan...
