The design inaccuracy (fault) in predictors can cause huge power loss in processor posing serious threat to the designers. The objective of the current analysis of fault impact on the processor power consumption is to devise a methodology for diagnosis of the faulty module in a branch predictor. It is effectively the first step for identification of DPL (design to avoid power loss) in a processor. Exhaustive analysis reveals that the undoubted diagnosis of design inaccuracies, that is effective for DPL, can be formalized in a TWO-LEVEL predictor by sensing the power drainage from processor.

Chaotic maps have been widely used in data encryption. Various chaos map based encryption and decryption algorithms are used but are found to be insecure. Hence a new method is implemented based on BB (Brahmagupta-Bhaskara) equation which is combined with chaos to give a non linear dependency and thus improved security. This paper also improves security by changing chaotic sequence generators and permutation technique. The proposed algorithm is designed and realized using MATLAB and Xilinx ISE softwares.

The MG FinFETs are designed and its results are compared with the polysiliconFinFETs. The 6T SRAM cell is designed using both gate materials and their variations will be analysed. The 20nm tied gate device is compared with independent gate. The SRAM cell stability enhancement is improved using the IDG-FinFETs by controlling the individual Vth for the PG and the flipflop of the SRAM cell. By the Vth-controllability of the independent-double-gate (IDG) FinFETs the variation problems in SRAMperformance is reduced.

A Low area Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)-128 bit algorithm is proposed in this paper. This technique is implemented using Composite Field Arithmetic (CFA) in byte substitution block, inverse byte substitution block and key expansion block of AES algorithm. The Composite field arithmetic technique provides a low area than the Look Up Table (LUT) in S-Box/Inverse S-Box. The proposed technique is presented with multistage sub-pipelined architecture in order to increase the throughput and its performance is compared with the previous FPGA implementations.

Memories are the most defect sensitive parts in a machine computer. Conventionally, variations of March test are extensively used for functional test of SRAMs and DRAMs. In this work, we propose a CA (Cellular Automata) based scheme for efficient implementation of March test with the target to realize fault detection in high speed memories. The special class of CA referred to as the SACA is used for the purpose. The regular structure of CA enables low cost implementation of test logic for the memory chip that is inherently regular in structure. Utilization of the existing memory cells, while designing the CA based test logic, ensures drastic reduction in the test overhead.

Adaptive transmission methods can potentially aid to achieve high data rates in Power Line Communication (PLC) system. To realize this potential, the transmitter needs accurate Channel State Information (CSI) for the upcoming transmission frame. In this paper a channel prediction scheme for Exponential Effective SINR Mapping (EESM) algorithm using Neural Network for OFDM system is proposed to select a suitable Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) for the current PLC channel realization which renders high throughput, while maintaining a certain target Packet Error Rate (PER). The Neural Network is trained to predict the future channel condition so as to perform adaptive transmission. The performances of three different neural network models are evaluated and it is observed that the proposed channel prediction method has performed more accurately than the conventional prediction systems. The processing time of EESM algorithm improved from 2.31 seconds to 0.26 seconds and thus proving fast adaptation.

Reversible logic is gaining importance for its ultra low power consumption. It has wide application in quantum computing, nanotechnology and optical computing. In this work, we propose a DFT (design for test) methodology for reversible logic blocks to enable online fault detection. A concurrent error detection technique, based on parity is introduced for the online testing. The methodology proposed for converting a 3×3 reversible gate into an online testable circuit ensures detection of all the stuck-at faults, bit flip faults and almost all multiple bit faults in logic blocks.

In this paper we presents a signal conditioning unit working at single supply. The unit consists of high pass filter, buffer and a cascaded stage of low pass filter with amplifier. The order of high pass filter and low pass filter was first and second respectively. The unit was realized by using minimum off-the-shelf components through effective sizing rules proposed in this paper. Software simulation was done to ascertain the working of conditioning unit according to the specifications. A hardware prototype has been made to demonstrate the working of the unit.

This presents a MEMS thermal actuator which has been fabricated using SOI MUMPs technology. These thermal actuators are used in micro legs, micro grippers, micro positioning applications etc. The operating principle is based on the asymmetrical thermal expansion of the beams with different lengths and cross sections. By applying voltage (current) on different contact pads, and different beams are heated, thereby the microactuator can produce bilateral motion in plane or out-of-plane. The narrow or hot arm heats up and expands more than the wide or cold arm deflecting the device toward the cold arm. Thermal actuators are more power efficient than electrostatic actuators. The work carries the characterization details of the thermal actuator fabricated. It contains the I-V characteristics and voltage versus displacement details.
