As process nodes shrink to deep nanometer scales, the heightened sensitivity of digital circuits to radiation and the dramatic rise in leakage power have become pressing concerns. Magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) possesses intrinsic radiation resistance and nonvolatility and can be integrated with CMOS processes. Therefore, designing MTJ-based radiation-hardened nonvolatile storage elements is a promising solution to address these issues. In this brief, we propose a novel MTJ-based radiation-hardened, speed and power optimized nonvolatile (RH-SPO) latch and compares it with existing designs to evaluate its performance. Using a 28 nm CMOS process, simulation results confirm that the proposed RH-SPO latch offers moderate radiation resistance and high robustness performance with backup and restore operations. Additionally, compared to state-of-the-art design, named M-8C, it can save up to 50% in area overhead, reduce transmission-restore power consumption and restore time by 98% and 75%, respectively.

This brief presents an energy-efficient continuous-time incremental delta-sigma modulator (CT IDSM), where the first integrator employs a fourth-order feedforward-compensated amplifier based on an AC-coupled OTA-stacking amplifier (AC-OSA) and utilizes a charge neutralization reset scheme (CNRS). Extending the AC-OSA to incremental structures significantly improves the energy efficiency of the ADC. The core innovation is the use of CNRS for periodic resets, addressing common-mode (CM) disturbances and incomplete differential-mode (DM) signal resets caused by the conventional shorted integration capacitor scheme. Additionally, to enhance area and power efficiency when using high-tap FIR DACs in CT IDSMs, we propose an excess-loop-delay compensation (ELDC) FIR DAC suitable for single-bit (SB) architectures. A third-order single-loop SB CT IDSM with an eight-tap FIR DAC is fabricated in a 65nm CMOS process and achieves SNDR, SNR, and DR values of 81.5dB, 81.8dB, and 85dB, respectively at a Nyquist conversion rate of 200kS/s. The core area is 0.227mm2, and the ADC consumes $275{mu }$
