In this paper, we evaluate the dependencies between tools, data and environment in process design kits, and present a framework for systematically analyzing the quality of the des...
Noise figure is a commonly used system parameter that quantifies the degradation in the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) as the signal passes through a receiving system. Because of the...
An intermediate solution between conventional printed circuit board technology and wafer level packaging, WLP, is to fabricate interconnection circuits and flip chip assembly stru...
— The design of an efficient monolithic buck converter is presented in this paper. A low swing MOSFET gate drive technique is proposed that improves the efficiency characteristic...

Accurate statistical simulation and modeling are important for IC design. Different types of statistical simulation require different types of statistical models. In this paper a ...
A simple, efficient CAD-oriented equivalent circuit modeling approach of frequency-dependent behavior of substrate noise coupling is presented. It is shown that the substrate exhi...
In this paper we propose a new design methodology targeted for core-based designs using parameterized macrocells (PMC’s). This methodology provides the flexibility for instance...

A structurally testable delay fault might become untestable in the functional mode of the circuit due to logic or timing constraints or both. Experimental data suggests that there...
We present a new technique for generating compact dictionaries for cause-effect diagnosis in BIST. This approach relies on the use of three compact dictionaries: (i) D1, containin...
