— We present an efficient method for automatically extracting unified amplitude/phase macromodels of arbitrary oscillators from their SPICE-level circuit descriptions. Such com...
— Process variations and temperature variations can cause both the frequency and the leakage of the chip to vary significantly from their expected values, thereby decreasing the...

Extensive research has proposed the use of multiple on-die power supplies (VDD) for reducing power consumption in CMOS circuits. We present a detailed study and design techniques ...
— A substrate-coupling equivalent circuit can be derived for an arbitrary guard ring test structure by way of F-matrix computation. The derived netlist represents a unified impe...
— Power gating is widely accepted as an efficient way to suppress subthreshold leakage current. Yet, it suffers from gate leakage current, which grows very fast with scaling dow...
- This paper presents an Application-Specific Instruction Set Processor (ASIP) approach for implementation of H.264/AVC. The proposed ASIP has special instructions for intra predic...
