Leakage power minimization is one of the key aspects of modern multi-million low power system-on-chip (SoC) design. In post timing-closure phase, leakage-in-place-optimization (LIPO) is generally adopted to reduce leakage power by swapping high-leaky cells in the timing-data-paths by low-leaky ones of the same footprint. The traditional LIPO does not touch the clock network for leakage recovery. This paper investigates the opportunity to reduce leakage power further of an already leakage-power-minimized (by LIPO), timing closed design by minimally altering the balanced clock tree. The proposed method, Opportunistic LIPO, intends to borrow unused positive-slack from downstream (and/or upstream) paths, may or may not be at immediate neighborhood, and provide a “positive skew” (and/or “negative skew”) at the capture (and/or launch) clock edge of the current path. In this way, the proposed scheme creates an opportunity in the current path to increase the low-leaky cells distribution. Experimental results, computed over some practical duration (less than 48 hours), on some industry-standard design based on 28nm technology, of having around 50 million gates, shows that the proposed algorithm, “Opportunistic LIPO”, achieves 10-30% better leakage power as compared to traditional LIPO without increasing the number of timing violations and having no significant impact on overall area.
泄漏功率最小化是现代低功耗片上系统(SoC)设计的关键问题之一。在后时间闭合阶段,通常采用泄漏就地优化(LIPO),通过将时间数据路径中的高泄漏单元交换为相同占用空间的低泄漏单元来降低泄漏功率。传统的LIPO不接触时钟网络进行泄漏恢复。本文研究了通过最小限度地改变平衡时钟树来进一步降低泄漏功率的机会,这种泄漏功率已经最小化(通过LIPO),定时关闭设计。所提出的方法,机会性LIPO,打算从下游(和/或上游)路径借用未使用的正松弛,可能或可能不在邻近区域,并在当前路径的捕获(和/或发射)时钟边缘提供“正倾斜”(和/或“负倾斜”)。通过这种方式,所提出的方案在当前路径中创造了增加低泄漏电池分布的机会。实验结果表明,在基于28nm技术的工业标准设计中,在大约5000万个栅极的实际持续时间内(小于48小时)计算的结果表明,与传统的LIPO相比,提出的“机会型LIPO”算法在不增加计时违规次数的情况下,泄漏功率提高了10-30%,对总面积没有显著影响。

Wireless implantable devices capable of monitoring the electrical activity of the brain are becoming an important tool for understanding and potentially treating mental diseases such as epilepsy and depression. While such devices exist, it is still necessary to address several challenges to make them more practical in terms of area and power dissipation. In this work, we apply Learning Based Compressive Sub-sampling (LBCS) to tackle the power and area trade-offs in neural wireless devices. To this end, we propose a low-power and area-efficient system for neural signal acquisition which yields state-of-art compression rates up to 64× with high reconstruction quality, as demonstrated on two human iEEG datasets. This new fully digital architecture handles one neural acquisition channel, with an area of 210 × 210μm in 90nm CMOS technology, and a power dissipation of only 1μW.

An all-digital self-adaptive clock generation system capable of autonomously adapt the clock frequency to compensate the effects of static spatially heterogeneous (SSHet) PVTA variations is presented. The design uses time-to-digital converters (TDCs) as delay sensors and a variable length ring oscillator (VLRO) as clock generator. The VLRO naturally adapts its frequency to the PVTA variations suffered by its logic gates while the TDCs are used to track these variations across the chip and modify the VLRO length in order to allocate them. The proposed system has been implemented in a silicon chip using a 65nm process. The fabricated chip has been used to test the system adaptive capabilities under SSHet voltage variations. Measurement results show that it effectively adapts the VLRO length, and hence the clock frequency, to the supply voltage variations.

Inherent stochastic physical mechanisms in emerging nonvolatile memories (NVMs), such as resistive random-access-memory (RRAM), have recently been explored for hardware security applications. Unlike the conventional silicon Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) that are solely based on manufacturing process variation, RRAM has some intrinsic randomness in its physical mechanisms that can be utilized as entropy sources; for instance, resistance variation, random telegraph noise, and probabilistic switching behaviors. This paper reviews the challenges and opportunities in building security primitives with emerging devices. In particular, it presents research progress of RRAM-based hardware security primitives, including PUF and True Random Number Generator (TRNG).

Many lattice-based cryptosystems are based on the security of the Ring learning with errors (Ring-LWE) problem. The most critical and computationally intensive operation of these Ring-LWE based cryptosystems is polynomial multiplication. In this paper, we exploit the number theoretic transform to build a high-speed polynomial multiplier for the Ring-LWE based public key cryptosystems. We present a versatile pipelined polynomial multiplication architecture to calculate the product of two η-degree polynomials in about ((n lg n)/4+n/2) clock cycles. In addition, we introduce several optimization techniques to reduce the required ROM storage. The experimental results on a Spartan-6 FPGA show that the proposed hardware architecture can achieve a speedup of on average 2.25 than the state of the art of high-speed design. Meanwhile, our design is able to save up to 47.06% memory blocks.

Intelligent things, medical devices, vehicles and factories, all part of cyberphysical systems, will only be secure if we can build devices that can perform the mathematically demanding cryptographic operations in an efficient way. Unfortunately, many of devices operate under extremely limited power, energy and area constraints. Yet we expect that they can execute, often in real-time, the symmetric key, public key and/or hash functions needed for the application. At the same time, we request that the implementations are also secure against a wide range of physical attacks. This presentation will focus on the design methods to realize cryptographic operations on resource constrained devices. To reach the extremely low power, low energy and area budgets, we need to consider in an integrated way the protocols, the algorithms, the architectures and the circuit aspects of the application. These concepts will be illustrated with the design of several cryptographic co-processors suitable for implementation in embedded context.
智能设备、医疗设备、车辆和工厂,这些都是网络物理系统的一部分,只有当我们能够制造出能够高效地执行数学上要求很高的加密操作的设备时,它们才会安全。不幸的是,许多设备在非常有限的功率、能量和面积限制下运行。然而,我们希望它们能够经常实时地执行应用程序所需的对称密钥、公钥和/或哈希函数。同时,我们要求实现也是安全的,可以抵御各种物理攻击。本报告将重点介绍在资源受限的设备上实现加密操作的设计方法。为了达到极低的功耗,低能耗和面积预算,我们需要以综合的方式考虑应用程序的协议,算法,架构和电路方面。这些概念将通过设计几个适合在嵌入式环境中实现的加密协处理器来说明。

Today, it would be difficult to find medical device technology that does not critically depend on computer software. Network connectivity and wireless communication has transformed the delivery of patient care. The technology often enables patients to lead more normal and healthy lives. However, medical devices that rely on software (e.g., drug infusion pumps, linear accelerators, pacemakers) also inherit the pesky cybersecurity risks endemic to computing. What's special about medical devices and cybersecurity? What's hype and what's real? What can history teach us? How are international standards bodies and regulatory cybersecurity requirements changing the global manufacture of medical devices? This talk will provide a glimpse into the risks, benefits, and regulatory issues for medical device cybersecurity and innovation of trustworthy medical device software.

A novel on-chip impedance calibration method for LPDDR4 interface between DRAM and AP/SoC 一种新的DRAM与AP/SoC之间LPDDR4接口的片上阻抗校准方法
Pub Date : 2016-05-18 DOI: 10.1145/2902961.2902982

In this paper, a novel on-chip impedance calibration methodology for a LPDDR4 (low power double data rate) application is proposed. The background calibration operates to compensate mismatches and variations of the output NMOS drivers from process and temperature variations. The impedance matching concept uses process sensor and temperature monitoring sensors closely located to DQ pins as a means to detect output driver transistor mismatches due to process and temperature variations. In addition, digitized sensor outputs from ADCs are used as inputs of look-up tables, which control calibration codes of the transmitter driver. The proposed circuitry is designed with DRAM bidirectional transceiver and implemented using a standard 180nm CMOS technology, and the impedance calibration technique is demonstrated with external termination resistance of 40/48/60/80/120/240 ohm, respectively. In the receiver end, a PMOS input sense amplifier is designed considering the required common mode range for the LVSTL (low voltage swing termination logic) signal interface, and an adaptive gain control scheme is also applied on the receiver design. The process sensor is utilized to control the gain factor of the receiver. The active area including power-ring of the transmitter is 14.4mm2 with only 0.48mm2 of the proposed calibration circuit overhead.
本文提出了一种适用于LPDDR4(低功耗双数据速率)应用的片上阻抗校准方法。背景校准用于补偿过程和温度变化引起的输出NMOS驱动器的不匹配和变化。阻抗匹配概念使用靠近DQ引脚的过程传感器和温度监测传感器作为检测由于过程和温度变化而导致的输出驱动器晶体管不匹配的手段。此外,adc的数字化传感器输出用作查表的输入,查表控制发射机驱动器的校准代码。该电路采用DRAM双向收发器设计,采用标准的180nm CMOS技术实现,外部端电阻分别为40/48/60/80/120/240 ohm,阻抗校准技术得到验证。在接收端,考虑到LVSTL(低电压摆幅终止逻辑)信号接口所需的共模范围,设计了PMOS输入感测放大器,并在接收机设计中采用了自适应增益控制方案。过程传感器用于控制接收机的增益系数。包括功率环在内的发射机有效面积为14.4mm2,而所提出的校准电路开销仅为0.48mm2。

Due to near-threshold computing nowadays, voltage emergency is threatening our design margins very seriously. Noise sensors are inserted in order to prevent various integrity issues from happening during runtime. In this work, we use a new technique based on association rule mining to plan and place noise sensors. This new methodology can consider the miss rate (the probability of any node occurring voltage emergency without any detection by placed sensors) and simultaneously minimize the number of sensors utilized. The results show that our approach is very effective in converging the miss rate to zero by the least number of sensors. Compared with the state-of-the-art, we can reduce the number of sensors by half in benchmarks while the miss rate is comparable or even smaller than the prior work.
在近阈值计算的今天,电压突发严重威胁着我们的设计余量。插入噪声传感器是为了防止在运行期间发生各种完整性问题。在这项工作中,我们使用了一种基于关联规则挖掘的新技术来规划和放置噪声传感器。该方法可以考虑漏检率(即任何节点在没有传感器检测的情况下发生电压紧急情况的概率),同时最大限度地减少传感器的使用数量。结果表明,该方法可以有效地利用最少的传感器数量将脱靶率收敛到零。与最先进的技术相比,我们可以在基准测试中将传感器数量减少一半,而脱靶率与之前的工作相当甚至更小。

Physical unclonable functions (PUFs) leverage minute silicon process variations to produce device-tied secret keys. The energy and area costs of creating keys from PUFs can far exceed the costs of the basic PUF circuits alone. Minimizing the end-to-end cost of reliable key generation is critical to enable broader adoption of PUFs. In this work, we introduce a new style of PUF that employs autonomous majority voting to improve reliability. The novelty of this design, and the source of its efficiency, is that the inherently sequential majority voting procedure is carried out by a self-timed circuit without orchestration by a global clock. We use circuit simulation to evaluate the energy versus reliability tradeoffs achieved by different parameterizations of the design, to show that the design performs well across a range of supply voltages, and to quantify the robustness of the design across a broad range of operating temperatures.
物理不可克隆函数(puf)利用微小的硅工艺变化来生成与设备绑定的密钥。从PUF中创建密钥的能量和面积成本远远超过基本PUF电路的成本。最小化可靠密钥生成的端到端成本对于更广泛地采用puf至关重要。在这项工作中,我们引入了一种新的PUF风格,该风格采用自治多数投票来提高可靠性。这种设计的新颖之处在于,固有的顺序多数投票过程是由自定时电路执行的,而无需全局时钟的编排。我们使用电路仿真来评估通过不同参数化设计实现的能量与可靠性权衡,以显示设计在各种电源电压范围内表现良好,并量化设计在各种工作温度范围内的稳健性。
