Conventional Extended gate STI based LDMOS devices often have an overlap between gate and STI resulting in higher impact ionization at the STI left edge. In this work, we have proposed and analyzed a novel split gate architecture to reduce impact ionization and improve off-state breakdown voltage. The underlying physics behind the improved characteristics of the proposed architecture is explained using detailed TCAD simulations. Finally, necessary design guidelines are provided for proper optimization of the split gate architecture.

The work reports on an innovative design to improve the scalability of misaligned Double Gate (DG) Tunnel Field Effect Transistor (TFET) for operation as dynamic memory. The design optimization is achieved through use of lateral gap on both edges of back gate (G2) that reduces Band-to-Band Tunneling (BTBT) and enhances Retention Time (RT) by a factor of ∼3. The front gate responsible for read mechanism can be scaled down to 75 nm while G2 can be scaled until 40 nm. The investigation highlights better scalability and improved retention characteristics.

A novel digital loop filter(DLF)for fast-locking bang-bang all-digital PLL (BBADPLL) is proposed. An adaptive locking monitor (ALM) is used in the DLF, which predicts the frequency error and divides the locking process into three steps. A novel DLF based 10 GHz BBADPLL is implemented in a 65 nm CMOS process, which achieves an average locking time of 1.84 μs while consuming 9.48 mW with supply of 1.2 V.

In this paper, we study the effects of two important parameters such as work function of gate material and the temperature, on behavior of FinFET device. The investigation is carried out on Germanium based FinFET device. Working device shows improve current drivability in terms of high on current (ION), less leakage current (IOFF), high value of (ION/IOFF), and have good control on short channel effects (SCEs). Most interestingly, a sub-60 mV/dec of Subthreshold Swing value is found for ambient temperature.

Precise Hall effect gap sensor with differential and shielding structure for effective reduction of common electrical and magnetic noise is reported. Applied to a transport system with magnetic levitation, resolution of the sensor resulted in 2 μm while with 2 mV/μm sensitivity at main sensing range of 1.5mm. Less than 1 μm variation is observed despite the ambient magnetic field. Levitation error of the transport system with the gap sensor satisfied a given specification of less than 10 μm.

This paper presents a clock-feedthrough compensation technique for bootstrapped switches. The proposed technique utilizes a dummy transistor to generate a reverse voltage, which compensates the input-dependent error caused by clock feedthrough effect of sampling switch. Simulation result shows the differential sampling error of bootstrapped switch reduces from 7.2mV to 1.4mV for the worst case, operating at 500MHz sampling speed in 55nm CMOS technology with a 300fF hold capacitor. The bootstrapped switch consumes 27uW power with only 1.5uW in compensation.

This paper presents a wide range high efficiency fully integrated switched-capacitor DC-DC converter with fixed output spectrum targeting for noise-sensitive Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications. In order to alleviate the unpredictable output spectrum and the reduced energy efficiency of the conventional pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) and pulse-width modulation (PWM) schemes, fixed output spectrum (FOS) modulation is proposed to ensure easy noise filtering while achieving wide range high efficiency operation. A 2-phase 3-level gate driver is also proposed to minimize the reversion loss and enhance conduction. Simulation result in a standard 0.18-μm CMOS process shows that up to 88% high energy efficiency can be achieved with a loading range from 75μA to 3mA using a total flying capacitance of 0.96nF.

The speed of CBC mode is difficult to develop because of its feedback loop. To improve the speed of CBC mode, a method of removing the XOR gate from the critical path by precomputing T-box which merges S-box and MixColumns operation is proposed in this paper. The implementation of T-box is parallel on the basis of twisted BDD including BDD and 5-32 decoder. We merge the XOR gate into both BDD and the decoder by precalculation so as to eliminate it from the critical path. ASIC implementation proves the effectiveness and we can achieve a throughput of 12.4Gbps using a 0.13μm CMOS standard cell library and this is superior to others compared to previous work.
