An approach to analyze PLL jitter under noise excitations of the different origin is considered in the paper. Both internal device noise and external switching noise can be captured by the proposed approach. Jitter evaluation is provided by obtaining phase transfer functions (TF) from any circuit node to the PLL output. Unlike previous works explaining noise folding in PLL by sampling processes, this paper shows that spectrum aliasing in PLL blocks appears in both digital and analog PLL due to principal properties of Linear Periodically Time- Varying (LPTV) systems. Expressions for the evaluation TF of PLL blocks are presented. The PLL macromodel developed in the form of block diagram allowed the authors to derive the set of PLL TFs. Different approaches to the evaluation of the phase TF by additive TFs of electrical harmonics are discussed.

This paper is devoted to a problem of the hidden faults which is shown in digital components of the safety-related systems aimed at providing of the functional safety of objects with the increased risk. These systems are considered on the basis of resource approach as development of computer systems with diversification of an operating mode by its division on normal and emergency. The problem consists in accumulation of faults throughout a continuous normal mode in absence of the input data showing them. In the most responsible emergency mode, accumulated faults are shown in lowering of fault tolerance on which the functional safety is based. The problem of the hidden faults is identified as a problem in development of resources where diversification of a checkability of the circuits contradicts designing of the digital components at the bottom level of resource development - replication. Problem solutions by increase in the level of resource development in designing of the digital components, including a method of a choice of the version in program codes of the FPGA project are suggested.

A method of digital processing of global positioning system navigation signal is proposed. It allows to separate evaluation of spectral and energy characteristics of signal components. Main advantages of the method is: increasing a dynamic range by more than 10 dB, separation of navigation signal components under conditions of a priori information absence about a generating polynomial. The method is based on extracting the spreading sequences of a navigational signal by the method of quadrature heterodyning with filtration of components of one quadrature and subsequent correlation processing of an initial signal.

In this paper, we consider the possibility of miniaturization of a broadband quadrature coupler using low-pass filters that have the same phase shift as the replaced segment of microstrip line. Numerical simulation of the proposed four-stub coupler with a central frequency tuned to 2000 MHz is conducted. The decoupling band at the level of −20 dB of such a device is around 1000 MHz. The dimensions of the coupler are 37 mm × 14 mm = 518 mm2, which is 65.3% less than the standard one. The experimental results coincide with the results of the simulation with a small error.

The variational methods for dense optical flow estimation are widely known and adopted techniques for motion detection, object tracking, 3D reconstruction and autonomous navigation in image processing applications. A non-linear model of variational optical flow estimation is the most accurate but also most complicated and computationally intensive method and its implementation in an FPGA is compromise from both a design complexity and a performance. The article is devoted to the specific FPGA-based solution which has been implemented using Verilog hardware description language. The suggested solution is able to process the non-linear optical flow in real time and might be applied as FPGA -accelerator for optical flow processing.

The present work deals with artificial intelligence research. The problem of engineering software benchmarking study for the purpose of fitting for task type and computational resources is important today. This problem is often solved by the help of intelligence decision support systems (IDSS). Domain ontology is a typical knowledge representation model in such systems. Manual ontology development is a time-consuming and expensive process. Because of a great variety of circuit partitioning problem formulization, clustering is a necessary step of automated circuit partitioning problem ontology development. The problem of automated circuit partitioning problem clustering appears because of integrated data comparison. This data is represented by different dimension structures. The goal of this work is the development of circuit partitioning problem clustering method based on adjacency matrix unification. The hypergraph model of circuit representation was chosen, circuit partitioning problem was formalized. The case of adjacency matrix with different dimension clustering was observed. The novelty of proposed method is the inclusion of matrix with different dimension unification procedure in the generic clustering method.

With the growing complexity of System-On-Chips (SoCs), and the explosion of test data volume, test patterns validation is becoming a mandatory and crucial step. With modern large designs, detecting most issues at the level of the ATE is no longer a viable solution. Recent approaches rely on dedicated tools and flows prior to tester to validate test patterns, and reserve ATE to only screening real defect issues on the test-chip. This allows for early detection of successive and cumulative modeling and processing steps. In [1] we presented an original simulation-based patterns validation approach. A crucial step in that approach was the translation from cycle-based tester domain to an event-based simulation domain. This paper focuses on that part by presenting an approach for efficient and trustful translation of a STIL file to an equivalent HDL (Verilog) representation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first paper that describes a full and detailed tester based language (STIL) to an HDL (Verilog) translation, thereby expressing fully and accurately the behavior of cycle based domain into an event-based environment. Such transformation allows porting the problem from tester domain to HDL and logic simulation domain, and exploiting their capabilities for sake of efficient validation, but also, debug, coverage and functional tests. The proposed approach is an industry proven methodology that was successfully implemented and exploited by an EDA tool [2] that is now used by several semiconductors companies for their daily pattern validation flows.
