A novel topology for a high speed voltage level shifter (VLS) is presented. It features a built-in short circuit current reduction which increases the speed and reduces the power consumption. Unlike the conventional VLSs, the proposed VLS does not need complex digital timing signals. The simplicity of its operation results into robustness of operation, high speed and low power. The VLS was designed in CMOS 0.18um process. Simulation results, at the layout extraction level, are presented to validate the design concept. The speed and energy consumption of the VLS are compared with the state of the art VLSs. The proposed VLS proves to be better in both the speed and power aspects than the state of the art VLSs.

A novel design methodology is proposed to enable sampling phase-locked loops (SPLL) to synthesise fractional-N frequencies. To date, SPLL can only generate integer-N frequencies. The benefit is that the proposed SPLL has the advantages of both fractional-N PLL and SPLL, such as the faster frequency switching, a smaller phase jump and a larger loop gain. Since the frequency divider can be omitted in SPLL, the associated phase noise, power and hardware consumption can be ignored. Also, the design work is simplified, since the complex multi-phase frequency divider is not needed in the proposed SPLL.

This paper presents two integrated class-A travelling wave medium power amplifiers employing 0.35µm SiGe HBT process. The first amplifier realized is a 1.3×1mm2 device comprising of a single-stage configuration using a single transistor that exhibits an average small-signal gain of 7dB and power level of 14dBm between 0.25 to 2.5GHz while maintaining power-added efficiency in the range 30% to 10%. The second amplifier is 1.8×2.3mm2 device comprising of a driver stage cascaded with two identical amplifier stages in a parallel configuration whose outputs are combined together to enhance the devices output power by 3dB across the wideband frequency range. This amplifier's unique topology is implemented using a version of the first amplifier. The amplifier's measured output power was approximately 18dBm, the average small-signal gain was 21dB, and efficiency between 30% to 10% across 0.2–2.2GHz.

Human's retina has the capability to identify color and luminosity. The cell identifies color is called a cone cell and identifies luminosity is called a rod cell. The color image processing using CNN was proposed by Roska et al. Additionally, Inoue et al. have used three-layer CNN based on cone cell, and performed edge enhancement. They have confirmed that edge had been detected under three-layer CNN influencing each other. However, the edge of a low luminosity portion is not detected. In this study, we propose four-layer cellular neural networks in consideration of three primary colors of light and luminosity, respectively. In this research, we show some edge detection results and confirm that the proposed CNN is effective compared with the conventional CNN and the existing CNN.

Various synthesis strategies relying on conventional standard-cell libraries (SCLs) are evaluated in order to minimize the energy dissipation per operation in sub-threshold (sub-VT) systems. First, two sub-VT analysis methods are reviewed, both of which allow to evaluate the energy dissipation and performance in the sub-VT regime for designs which have been synthesized using a 65-nm CMOS SCL, characterized at nominal supply voltage. Both analysis methods are able to predict the energy minimum supply voltage (EMV) of any given design. Next, the results of a sub-VT synthesis at EMV using re-characterized SCLs are compared to the initial synthesis results. Finally, the results of timing-driven synthesis in both the above-VT and the sub-VT domain are compared to the results of power-driven synthesis.

Galois field arithmetic circuits find wide variety of application in cryptography. Thus they faces majority of the hardware based attacks for malicious gain. Though there are many approaches that have been proposed to mitigate such malicious attacks, most of them are inappropriate for practical applicability due to various design drawbacks. It is noted that Galois field multipliers are one among the many core arithmetic modules that are inevitable in the cryptography processors. Among them Montgomery multipliers are studied and implemented in applications like Elliptical Curve Cryptography arithmetic. However, a multiple bit error correctable Montgomery multiplier has not yet been implemented to this end. In this paper, we propose a novel multiple bit error correctable bit-parallel Montgomery multipliers with dynamic error detection and correction. First we present the BCH code based multiple bit error correctable Montgomery multiplier design architecture. Then we propose a novel scheme for reducing the recurrent delay when no transient malicious attack is present. In comparison with the existing multiple bit error correctable bit parallel multiplier structures, our novel technique significantly reduces the delay and improves the performance.

This paper deals with the realization of a visual monitoring system for the real time detection of spatters in laser beam welding (LBW). Spatters deteriorate the corrosion resistance and the aesthetics of the welding result. Therefore, the real time detection of spatters allows providing on-line quality information about the process, thus reducing material waste in production chains. The proposed Cellular Neural Network (CNN) based algorithm has been implemented in the Eye-RIS vision system (VS). Monitoring rates up to 15 kHz have been reached, allowing the integration of the spatter detection with the evaluation of additional image features, e.g. the full penetration hole (FPH).

In this paper the practical aspects of the extracted window method applied to the nearly optimal fractional sample delay (FSD) filter design has been investigated. As the window method is one of the most numerically efficient digital filter design methods, this approach is well suited for variable fractional sample delay (VFSD) filter implementations which require frequent impulse response recalculation. On the other hand, the use of symmetric window extracted from the optimal filter (minimax or least squared error) solves the problem of window selection and results in nearly optimal high performance VFSD filters. However, the design procedure requires additional gain correction dependent on fractional delay. As the optimal gain correction factor computation should not be performed at runtime, low order polynomial approximation has been investigated in this paper. Additionally, performance loss resulting from limited word length in fixed-point arithmetic has also been discussed.

In this paper, modified, hybrid architectures for digital, oversampled sigma-delta digital-to-analog converters (ΣΔDACs) are explored in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and power consumption. Two different architectures are investigated, both have variable configurations of the input and output word-length (i.e., the physical resolution of the DAC). A modified architecture, termed in this work as a composite architecture (CA), shows about 9 dB increase in SNR while maintaining a power-consumption at the same level as that of a so-called hybrid architecture (HA). The power estimation is done for modulators on the RTL level using a standard cell library in a 65-nm technology. The modulators are operated at a sampling frequency of 2 GHz.

In this paper, a low complexity algorithm for the design of a time-varying correction filter of finite impulse response (FIR) type is presented. Using the obtained filter design to correct a preceding time-varying system, a correction performance in the least-squares sense can be ensured. The adaptation of the filter design requires a moderate computational complexity and is suitable for real-time applications. Thus, a correction of non-periodically time-varying systems can be achieved where design methods, which rely on computationally intensive operations, e.g. numerical integration, can not be applied. At the same time, its application is not limited to weakly time-varying systems as iterative solutions are, which can correct for weakly time-varying behavior by gradually reducing the induced signal error over multiple stages.
