In this article, we report on SwissSPAD3 (SS3), a 500 x 500 pixel single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) array, fabricated in 0.18-mu m CMOS technology. In this sensor, we introduce a novel dual-gate architecture with two contiguous temporal windows, or gate ...
The aim of this thesis is to implement, analyze and improve the selected low noise clock
generation and distribution techniques for ADC implementations. The thesis is divided into
two parts. The first part focuses on the sampling phase generation and distr ...
A central task in high-level synthesis is scheduling: the allocation of operations to clock cycles. The classic approach to scheduling is static, in which each operation is mapped to a clock cycle at compile-time, but recent years have seen the emergence o ...
In this paper we explore the technique of "inverse gating" which is a significant improvement over the "round gating" technique introduced in HOST 2016. Round gating worked by generating timing signals to separate glitch propagation from one circuit elemen ...
This article introduces a 32-kHz crystal oscillator (XO) with high energy-to-noise-ratio pulse injection at subharmonic frequency. A T/4-delay clock slicer is proposed to convert the sinusoidal crystal waveform into an output clock of 32 kHz and to introdu ...
This paper presents the design of Wren, a new geo-replicated key-value store that achieves Transactional Causal Consistency. Wren leverages two design choices to achieve higher performance and better scalability than existing systems. First, Wren uses hybr ...

As an increase of intelligent and self-powered devices is forecasted for our future everyday life, the implementation of energy-autonomous devices that can wirelessly communicate data from sensors is crucial. Even though techniques such as voltage scaling ...

Okapi is a new causally consistent geo-replicated key-value store. Okapi leverages two key design choices to achieve high performance. First, it relies on hybrid logical/physical clocks to achieve low latency even in the presence of clock skew. Second, Oka ...
