  1. 1. Optical Communication using Nanowires and Molecular Memory Systems

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik

    Author : Thomas Kjellberg Jensen; [2024]
    Keywords : neuromorphic computing; nanowire; molecular dye; DASA photoswitch; OBIC; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Neuromorphic computational networks, inspired by biological neural networks, provide a possible way of lowering computational energy cost, while at the same time allowing for much more sophisticated devices capable of real-time inferences and learning. Since simulating artificial neural networks on conventional computers is particularly inefficient, the development of neuromorphic devices is strongly motivated as the reliance on AI-models increases.

    Abstract : Accurate estimation of voltage drop (IR drop), in Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) is a critical challenge, which impacts their performance and power consumption. As technology advances and die sizes shrink, predicting IR drop fast and accurate becomes increasingly challenging. READ MORE

  5. 5. Design of a 13-Bit SAR ADC with kT/C noise cancellation technique

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Shashank Keerthy Kumar; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : One of the main limitations of a Successive Approximation Register (SAR) Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) is the large input capacitance needed to achieve the desired performance. This large input capacitance increases the total area of the ADC and it imposes the use of a powerful buffer to drive it. READ MORE
