Conventional input/output (IO) links consume power, independent of changes
in the bandwidth demand by the system they are deployed in. As the system is
designed to satisfy the peak bandwidth demand, most of the time the IO links
are idle but still consumin ...
Wireless communications are showing an explosive growth in emerging consumer and military applications of radiofrequency (RF), microwave, and millimeter-wave circuits and systems. Applications include wireless personal connectivity (Bluetooth), wireless lo ...
The semiconductor industry, governed by the Moore's law, has achieved the almost unbelievable feat of exponentially increasing performance while lowering the costs for years. The main enabler for this achievement has been the scaling of the CMOS transistor ...
The down-scaling of conventional MOSFETs has led to an impending power crisis, in which static power consumption is becoming too high. In order to improve the energy-efficiency of electronic circuits, small swing switches are interesting candidates to repl ...
High defect density exhibited by nanoelectronic technologies, and parameter variability already affecting the operation of very-deep submicron CMOS systems demand for a combination of specific solutions, focusing at each various levels of abstraction in th ...
Electronics today permeate our life and existence. It has become nearly impossible to evade any dependence on electronic devices that surround us every day - computers, phones, televisions. But also other objects become increasingly "smart" - watches, cars ...
Recent research has reported an undesirable OFF-state loss in high-frequency soft-switching power converters, such as resonant converters. This loss is attributed to a hysteresis loss related to the charging-discharging process of the output capacitance of ...
