Semiconductor technology has known an exponential evolution during last decades, being the key for the further evolution of micro- and nanoelectronics and the commercial breakthrough of state-of-the-art innovative and sometimes disruptive applications. Microelectronics is fully integrated in different areas of everyday life, such as healthcare, automotive, communication, safety and security, smart energy, smart cities, retail business, etc. This evolution implies extensive research towards new materials (gate dielectrics, metallization, III-V materials, wide bandgap approaches, etc.), alternative device architectures (e.g., FinFETs, TFETs, negative capacitance, gate-all-around, nanowires, nanosheets in both horizontal or vertical configurations, SOI approaches) and optimized system functionality and density (3D integration, through silicon vias, sequential integration, SOC, and others). Besides advanced 2- and 3D transistors, also solar cells, bio-devices, organic devices are of great importance. Also the operation field of the devices, including frequency range, noise performance and temperature range, has to be optimized in function of the envisaged digital or analog application. The state-of-the-art, trends and challenges encountered during the fabrication and operation of different emerging technologies are reviewed in this special issue. Much attention is given to the excellent research being performed by different research groups at Brazilian universities and international research centers.

To meet low power requirements for Internet of Things (IoT) applications, the power dissipation of RF transceivers must be very low. As the Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) is one of the most energy consuming parts of an RF receiver, its power optimization is necessary for modern IoT devices. This work presents a 170 $mu$W LNA capable of operating at 2.4 GHz when powered by a 0.4 V source. It is based on an inverter-based amplifier with improved gate bias voltage and automatic forward bulk biasing to operate at the moderated channel inversion level. A biasing metric is explored to analyze the best dimensions and bulk bias voltages for the NMOS transistor. Post-layout simulation results shown a 2.8 dB noise and competitive specification values compared to the state-of-the-art low-voltage LNAs.
为了满足物联网(IoT)应用的低功耗要求,射频收发器的功耗必须非常低。由于低噪声放大器(LNA)是射频接收器中最耗能的部分之一,因此对现代物联网设备进行功率优化是必要的。这项工作提出了一个170 $mu$W的LNA,当由0.4 V电源供电时,能够工作在2.4 GHz。它基于一个基于逆变器的放大器,具有改进的门偏置电压和自动正向体偏置,以在调制通道反转电平上工作。探讨了一种偏置度量来分析NMOS晶体管的最佳尺寸和体偏置电压。布局后仿真结果显示,与最先进的低压lna相比,噪声为2.8 dB,规格值具有竞争力。

With the increasing demand for video transmission through the Internet, video coding has become a key technology to allow this market's growth at a reduced cost. Moreover, with the inception of higher video resolutions (e.g., 4K, 8K) and their impact on video size, new video coding standards must tackle this issue to reduce video traffic demand on the global internet infrastructure. The AV1, a recently released royalties-free video coding format created by the Alliance for Open Media (AOMedia), reaches great compression rates but cannot accomplish real-time execution on software-only implementations due to its high complexity. This paper presents and analyzes AE-AV1, a high-performance 4-stage pipelined architecture to accelerate the AV1 arithmetic encoding process (part of the entropy encoder block) and make it capable of real-time execution. For the analysis, this work aims to rely on fully open-source Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools and Package Design Kits (PDKs).
随着对通过互联网传输视频的需求不断增加,视频编码已成为以更低成本实现市场增长的关键技术。此外,随着更高视频分辨率(如4K、8K)的出现及其对视频大小的影响,新的视频编码标准必须解决这一问题,以减少全球互联网基础设施的视频流量需求。AV1是由开放媒体联盟(AOMedia)创建的一种最近发布的免版税视频编码格式,它达到了很高的压缩率,但由于其高复杂性,无法在纯软件实现上实现实时执行。本文提出并分析了AE-AV1,这是一种高性能的四级流水线结构,用于加速AV1算术编码过程(熵编码器块的一部分)并使其能够实时执行。为了进行分析,这项工作旨在依靠完全开源的电子设计自动化(EDA)工具和封装设计工具包(PDK)。

The present study proposes a new nonisolated DC-DC high step-up converter for solar PV power plant applications using the voltage boosting technique. The output voltage gain of this converter is high and the voltage stress on the switch and diodes is acceptable. The proposed converter has a switch for easier control. Moreover, to achieve higher reliability, the converter uses a common ground between the load and source. Voltage stress analysis, proper component selection, and converter evaluation are performed in continuous conduction mode (CCM). Simulation results verify the theoretical concept.

Tunnel-FET Evolution and Applications for Analog Circuits 隧道场效应管的演化及其在模拟电路中的应用
Q4 Engineering Pub Date : 2022-09-17 DOI: 10.29292/jics.v17i2.631

In this work different generations of field effect tunneling transistor (TFET) are evaluated through DC digital and analog figures of merits. For TFET devices the main digital figure of merit is the subthreshold slope (SS), while for analog application the intrinsic voltage gain (AV) is the most important one. For the early generations, that are based on silicon, the SS does not reach values smaller than 60mV/dec at room temperature, however, the AV reaches values up to 80 dB, showing to be promising for analog applications. As the TFETs were being optimized for digital applications and consequently presenting better switching performance, the intrinsic voltage gain moves in the opposite direction. This opposite trend is related to which transport mechanism is predominant for each type of device. While III-V TFETs are more dependent on Band to Band Tunneling (BTBT), silicon devices are more relying on Trap-Assisted Tunneling (TAT). While BTBT allows for faster switching, TAT is less dependent on the drain electric field, so the former favors SS while the latter favors AV. Based on the good analog behavior of silicon channel TFETs, a two-stage operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) was designed with different TFET technologies and the compared results were discussed.
本文通过直流数字和模拟数据对不同时代的场效应隧道晶体管(ttfet)的优点进行了评价。对于TFET器件而言,主要的数字指标是阈下斜率(SS),而对于模拟应用而言,本征电压增益(AV)是最重要的指标。对于基于硅的早期一代,室温下的SS值不小于60mV/dec,然而,AV值可达80db,显示出模拟应用的前景。由于tfet被优化用于数字应用,因此呈现出更好的开关性能,固有电压增益向相反方向移动。这种相反的趋势与哪种传输机制对每种类型的设备起主导作用有关。III-V tfet更依赖于带到带隧道(BTBT),而硅器件更依赖于陷阱辅助隧道(TAT)。虽然BTBT允许更快的开关,但TAT对漏极电场的依赖性较小,因此前者倾向于SS,后者倾向于AV。基于硅沟道TFET良好的模拟行为,设计了两级操作跨导放大器(OTA),并讨论了不同TFET技术的比较结果。

Power amplifiers (PAs) are electronic devices commonly used in telecommunications that need to transmit information with high energetic efficiency. For this, it is necessary to use data manipulation methods that assist in the linearization of the output signal. Our previous conference paper presented two codes constructed based on the Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) and which differ in their way of selecting the best coefficients to be used in the calculations of the neural network. The first method, called Embracing, assumes greater availability of data, while the second, called Selective, selects information from the beginning of the code. This work extends the previous GMDH models by expanding the PA inputs into Laguerre basis functions with a single real pole. The comparison among the different approaches employs experimental data collected from a GaN HEMT class AB PA and a Si LDMOS class AB. The most selective and computationally more complex structure, when searching for identification since from the first layers, expresses minor errors and the best results in the output for both Conventional and Expanded GMDH models, becoming a reasoned option for use in PAs. A normalized mean square error (NMSE) of -35.44 dB was obtained by Expanded GMDH with Selective algorithm and 5 inputs when using the GaN PA, whereas a NMSE of -40.35 dB was obtained by the Expanded GMDH with Selective algorithm and 4 inputs when calculated with the Si LDMOS PA data.
功率放大器(PA)是电信中常用的电子设备,需要以高能量效率传输信息。为此,有必要使用有助于输出信号线性化的数据处理方法。我们之前的会议论文介绍了两个基于数据处理分组方法(GMDH)构建的代码,它们在选择神经网络计算中使用的最佳系数方面有所不同。第一种方法名为Embracing,假设数据的可用性更高,而第二种方法称为Selective,从代码的开头选择信息。这项工作通过将PA输入扩展到具有单个实极点的拉盖尔基函数来扩展先前的GMDH模型。不同方法之间的比较采用了从GaN HEMT AB类PA和Si LDMOS AB类收集的实验数据。当从第一层开始搜索识别时,最具选择性和计算上更复杂的结构在常规和扩展的GMDH模型的输出中都表现出较小的误差和最佳结果,成为在PA中使用的合理选择。当使用GaN PA时,通过具有选择性算法的扩展GMDH和5个输入获得了-35.44dB的归一化均方误差(NMSE),而当使用Si LDMOS PA数据计算时,通过带有选择性算法的扩充GMDH和4个输入获得的NMSE为-40.35dB。
