  1. 1. Multilevel Gain Cell Arrays for Fault-Tolerant VLSI Systems

    University essay from Elektroniksystem

    Author : Muhammad Umer Khalid; [2011]
    Keywords : DRAM; SRAM; gain cell; multilevel; fault-tolerant; replica technique; finite state machine; PVT variations.;

    Abstract : Embedded memories dominate area, power and cost of modern very large scale integrated circuits system on chips ( VLSI SoCs). Furthermore, due to process variations, it becomes challenging to design reliable energy efficient systems. Therefore, fault-tolerant designs will be area efficient, cost effective and have low power consumption. READ MORE

  2. 2. Reduction of Simultaneous Switching Noise in Analog Signal Band on a Chip

    University essay from Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Syed Muhammad Yasser Sherazi; Shahzad Asif; [2008]
    Keywords : CMOS; DCVSL; PRBS; ROM; TSPCL; Implementation on Chip; Noise Reduction; Substrate noise; Simultaneously;

    Abstract : In the era of VLSI the technological advancements have lead us to integrate not only digital circuits of high device density but both digital and analog circuits on to the same chip. In recent years the number of devices on a chip has spectacularly increased, all because of the downward scaling in sizes of the devices. READ MORE
