This paper presents an integrated circuit design for neural recording chip with integrated CMOS electrode array. The implementation of on-chip electrode array can greatly improve the implantability of neural recording systems. The chip is mainly composed of a neural recording analog front end and an $8times 8$ microelectrode array designed in CMOS process technology. The analog front end of the neural recording circuit adopts chopper technique, which effectively reduces the low-frequency noise. The whole circuit has been designed in Cadence using the SMIC 180-nm CMOS process. The simulation results show that the signal with a frequency ranging from 0-2kHz and the amplitude ranging from $0-500 mu mathrm{V}$ can be independently recorded through the electrodes with a control terminal. The electrode array and the recording analog front end IC are partly overlapped using different metal layers, saving the chip area. The chip area of the final circuit with 64 electrodes is only 1400 $mu mathrm{m}times 760 mu mathrm{m}$.

This paper presents a capacitor-less low-dropout regulator(LDO) based on flipped voltage follower(FVF) structure to achieve fast-transient response and small voltage spikes with a high power-supply ripple rejection (PSRR) performance. This capacitor-less LDO, implemented in 22 nm CMOS technology, is designed for the Internet-of-Things(IoT) application. With a method of adaptive biasing, this LDO can reduce quiescent by tracking load variations and improve the load transient response by tracing the variation of output voltage. Experimental results show that the maximal overshoot and undershoot with adaptive biasing circuit are about 25.06 mV and 38.73 mV, respectively, at the load current toggling between 100 uA and 10 mA with edge time of 300 ns. At the same time, its PSRR can achieve about -60.7 dB at 100 kHz and -41.2 dB at 1 MHz with quiescent current of 11 uA.

In this paper, the design of matrix filter using discrete cosine transform (DCT) and path graph is presented. First, the DCT is used to design matrix filter without considering the prior information of transform basis of DCT. Then, the graph spectral theory is employed to show that the DCT is the graph Fourier transform (GFT) of path graph such that graph filter method can be used to design and implement the matrix filter. Next, the weighted least squares (WLS) method is applied to design the graph filters which can be used to implement the matrix filter with low computational complexity because graph shift matrix is very sparse. Finally, the design examples of matrix Butterworth filter and matrix Riesz fractional order differentiator (FOD) are illustrated to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed matrix filter design method.

A low power column parallel single-slope (SS) ADC with minimum voltage feedback (MVF) for CMOS image sensors is proposed. It utilizes a minimum voltage feedback approach and a dynamic bias structure to reduce the useless power consumption after the ramp signal passes the minimum voltage of a row. A 10-bit SS ADC with MVF was designed in a 180nm CMOS process. The simulated DNL and INL of the ADC are +0.124/-0.126 LSB and +0.1/-0.104 LSB, respectively. The SNDR is 61.29dB, the SFDR is 77.24dB and the ENOB is 9.89bit. The column power consumption of the ADC is 30.6-41.5uW at the frequency of 50 MHz and the power supply of 3.3V/1.8V. The column parallel comparator and the ramp generator using this technology in the ADC can reduce power consumption by up to 53.2% and 57.0%, respectively. The power consumption of the added MVF circuit is only 0.16uW/column.

In this paper, a 60-GHz CMOS balanced power amplifier (PA) is proposed. Two miniaturized quadrature hybrids are utilized to realize power splitting and power combining. The compact hybrids can achieve good input and output matching performances. Transistor-layout optimization is taken into consideration to boost the output power and improve the power-added efficiency (PAE). The balanced PA is designed in 65-nm bulk CMOS and all the electromagnetic (EM) simulations of passive devices are executed in the EM tool. Post-layout simulation results show that the proposed balanced PA realizes a small-signal gain of 29.1 dB at 60 GHz with an 11-GHz bandwidth. With a 1.2-V supply voltage and 300-mW power consumption, the balanced PA achieves a saturated output power of 19.0 dBm and 24.4% peak PAE at 60 GHz, which is suitable for 60-GHz wireless systems.

In memory computation for Deep neural networks (DNNs) applications is an attractive approach to improve the energy efficiency of MAC operations under a memory-wall constraint, since it is highly parallel and can save a great amount of computation and memory access power. In this paper, we propose a time-domain compute in memory (CIM) design based on Fully Depleted Silicon On Insulator (FD-SOI) 8T SRAM. A $128mathrm{x}128$ 8T SRAM bit-cell array is built for processing a vector-matrix multiplication (or parallel dot-products) with $8mathrm{x}$ binary (0 or 1) inputs, in-array 8-bits weights, and 8bits output precision for DNN applications. The column-wise TDC converts the delay accumulation results to 8bits output codes using replica bit-cells for each conversion. Monte-Carlo simulations have verified both linearity and process variation. The energy efficiency of the 8bits operation is 32.8TOPS/W at 8bits TDC mode using 0.9V supply and 20MHz.

Different from binary computation, stochastic computation (SC), as a new paradigm, uses stochastic bit stream (SBS) to encode data. By simplifying computing elements, the circuit area can be greatly reduced. SBS can be generated by a stochastic number generator (SNG) with a variety of formats. In this work, we use unipolar (UP) and bipolar (BP) formats to optimize the traditional SC subtractor, which is named the UP-to-BP Subtractor (UBS). A new cross format coding (CFC) method is proposed for stochastic computing, which combines the UP and BP format, and is applied to Sobel edge detection in image processing algorithms. The fault tolerance and detection efficacy of the proposed CFC method and conventional binary computing are compared in this paper. By using the CFC method, the detected F-Score is improved by 0.15(23%). If the F-score remains unchanged, the processing speed can be about 10 times faster.

With the rapid interest in exploiting the advantages of beyond CMOS devices in various applications, we explore, in this work, voltage-gated spin-orbit torque-assisted magnetic tunnel junction (VGSOT-MTJ) based on the Verilog-A behavioral model to design a possible logic locking system for hardware security. The VGSOT MTJ can switch without needing a magnetic field, and the antiferromagnetic (AFM) strip provides SOT and an exchange bias, thus paving the way for more practical applications. Compared to spin transfer torque (STT) MTJs, these AFM-based SOT-MTJs do not require passing high write current through the thin layer of the MTJ stack, thus increasing their endurance significantly. Compared with Heavy metal (HM) based SOT-MTJ, the VGSOT-MTJ utilizes the voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy (VCMA) effect to significantly reduce the $J_{mathbf{SOT},mathbf{critical}}$. We perform a Monte-Carlo analysis to account for the effect of Process Variation on critical MTJ parameters for designing the logic locking block. Eye Diagram test, transient performance, and the effect of thermal noise are analyzed for High-Speed Integrated Circuits systems, and the results are compared with HM-based SOT-assisted MTJ as both are three-terminal (3T) MTJ structures.

Semi-Global Matching (SGM) algorithms and their corresponding hardware accelerators, which focus on stereo matching, have been developed in the last few years. However, the interpolation for disparity is much indispensable for real-world applications but still remains refining. This work presents a pixel-level pipeline architecture for the disparity refinement for SGM in case of computing disparity, which refines disparity through subpixel interpolation with an optimized cosine look up table and a compute-friendly parallel divider. The hardware architecture based on optimization algorithms has reached a error rate of only 6.33% for tradition background and 7.30% for occlusion condition, achieved in real-time FPGA as well.
