A new temperature compensation technique for ringoscillator-based ADC is proposed in this paper. It employs a novel fixed-number-based algorithm and a CTAT current biasing technol...
This paper describes ongoing research in the field of quantitative productivity measurement in IC Design and simulation of different scenarios as decision support. Five topics out...
Shrinking feature sizes and process variations are of increasing concern in modern technology. It is urgent that we develop statistical interconnect timing models which are harmon...
— In the face of increased process variations, at-speed manufacturing test is necessary to detect subtle delay defects. This procedure necessarily tests chips at a slightly highe...

This paper presents a method of dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) that tackles both switching and leakage power with combined Vdd/Vbs scaling and gives minimum average energy consumpt...
We present a low-cost on-line system for clock skew management in integrated circuits. Our Built-In Clock Skew System (BICSS) uses a centralized approach to identify, quantify and...
