Flip-Flop Design in Nanometer CMOS: From High Speed to Low by Massimo Alioto

By Massimo Alioto

This booklet presents a unified remedy of Flip-Flop layout and choice in nanometer CMOS VLSI platforms. The layout features concerning the energy-delay tradeoff in Flip-Flops are mentioned, together with their energy-optimal choice based on the unique program, and the distinctive circuit layout in nanometer CMOS VLSI structures. layout suggestions are derived in a coherent framework that incorporates explicitly nanometer results, together with leakage, structure parasitics and process/voltage/temperature adaptations, as major advances over the prevailing physique of labor within the box. The similar layout tradeoffs are explored in a variety of purposes and the comparable energy-performance goals. a variety of latest and lately proposed Flip-Flop topologies are mentioned. Theoretical foundations are supplied to set the degree for the derivation of layout guidance, and emphasis is given on useful facets and effects of the provided effects. Analytical types and derivations are brought while had to achieve an perception into the inter-dependence of layout parameters less than sensible constraints. This booklet serves as a helpful reference for training engineers operating within the VLSI layout quarter, and as textual content e-book for senior undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate scholars (already conversant in electronic circuits and timing).

Circuit Design for RF Transceivers

Circuit layout for RF Transceivers covers key construction blocks that are had to make an built-in transceiver for instant and mobile purposes, that's low-noise amplifiers, mixers, voltage managed oscillators, RF energy amplifiers and phase-locked loop structures. ranging from precise RF innovations and necessities, the authors talk about the circuits intimately and supply strategies to many layout difficulties.

Information Visualization, Second Edition: Perception for Design (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Interactive Technologies)

So much designers comprehend that yellow textual content awarded opposed to a blue historical past reads sincerely and simply, yet what percentage can clarify why, and what fairly are the easiest how you can aid others and ourselves in actual fact see key styles in a host of information? This ebook explores the paintings and technology of why we see gadgets the best way we do.

Computer Principles and Design in Verilog HDL

Makes use of Verilog HDL to demonstrate laptop structure and microprocessor layout, permitting readers to with no trouble simulate and regulate the operation of every layout, and hence construct industrially suitable abilities- Introduces the pc ideas, desktop layout, and the way to take advantage of Verilog HDL (Hardware Description Language) to enforce the layout- offers the talents for designing processor/arithmetic/cpu chips, together with the original software of Verilog HDL fabric for CPU (central processing unit) implementation- regardless of the various books on Verilog and laptop structure and microprocessor layout, few, if any, use Verilog as a key instrument in supporting a scholar to appreciate those layout thoughts- A better half site comprises colour figures, Verilog HDL codes, additional try out benches no longer present in the e-book, and PDFs of the figures and simulation waveforms for teachers

The first (and at first glance the most appropriate) composite metric to be introduced is the simple ED product, which equally weighs the two quantities. Another popular metric is the ED2 product where speed has priority over energy. The latter metric is claimed to have useful properties such as a nearly zero sensitivity on the supply voltage [80]. , minimizing) the above metrics are maximally efficient for a given delay (or energy), it is clear that a generalization is required when exploring and designing a circuit over the entire spectrum of the delay (energy) values it can achieve.
