21. Configurable, scalable single-ended sense amplifier with additional auxiliary blocks for low-power two-port memories in advanced FinFET technologies
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknikAbstract : System on Chip (SoC) designs contain a variety of Intellectual Property (IP) cores, including digital signal processing blocks, media and graphics processing units, as well as processing core units that employ multiple-port memories to enhance performance and bandwidth. These memories allow parallel read/write operations from the same memory blocks from different ports. READ MORE

22. The Semiconductor Crisis
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : The use of technology and electronics has grown at a rapid pace in recent decades. As a result, people in today's society have become more indirectly dependent on semiconductors, due to the fact that they are found nearly in all of today’s electronics. READ MORE

23. Fully Digital Process Variation Sensor for High Performance System-on-a-Chip
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Elektroniska Kretsar och System; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakultetenAbstract : Integrated Circuit (IC) designers have always faced the problem of small deviations in parameters of their designs in manufactured ICs. This variation due to the manufacturing process (Process Variation) in device parameters from their nominal values result in altered performance and can cause integrated circuits to be malfunctioning.

24. Validation of efficiency of formal verification methodology for verification closure
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC) and Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) verification is quite a time consuming phase in design flow cycle and it can be done using methodologies such as Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) and formal verification.The UVM methodology is simulation based verification where in the verifier will have to trigger the Design Under Test (DUT) manually by writing sequences which target different features of the DUT and the verification environment can also have verification directives such as assertions to spot design bugs.

25. On-chip Instrument Access Through System Hierarchy
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknikAbstract : There are many advantages with the development towards Integrated Circuits (ICs) with smaller, faster, and more transistors. However, tighter margins lead to a need of on-chip instruments to test, tune, and configure. These on-chip instruments, which can be in the range of thousands per IC, must be accessed through the life-time. READ MORE
