The invention of the integrated circuit and the manufacturing progress as well as continuing progress in the manufacturing process are the fundamental engines for the implementation of all technologies that support today's information society. The vast maj ...
The present formulation of the port assignment problem for binary commutative operators tries to minimize the number of wires connected to both the left and right inputs of the operator; intuitively, this minimizes the total number of inputs connected to b ...

Logic circuits and the ability to amplify electrical signals form the functional backbone of electronics along with the possibility to integrate multiple elements on the same chip. The miniaturization of electronic circuits is expected to reach fundamental ...
We propose to describe computations using QFPAbit, a language of quantifier-free linear arithmetic on unbounded integers with bitvector operations. Given a QFPAbit formula with input and output variables, we describe an algo- rithm that generates an effici ...
In this paper, a modeling methodology is validated based on an enhanced model of the diode, that we have developed to simulate substrate current coupling mechanisms on a typical H -bridge structure. An equivalent schematic based on an enhanced model of the ...
A new architecture for successive-approximation register analog-to-digital converters (SAR ADC) using generalized non-binary search algorithm is proposed to reduce the complexity and power consumption of the digital circuitry. The proposed architecture is ...
The precise evaluation of the reliability of logic circuits has a significant importance in highly-defective and future nanotechnologies. It allows efficient comparison of fault-tolerance techniques, and enables designs improvement with respect to their re ...
Ambipolar devices have been reported in many technologies, including carbon nanotube field effect transistors (CNTFETs). The ambipolarity can be in-field controlled with a second gate, enabling the design of generalized logic gates with a high expressive p ...
The efficient synthesis of circuits is a well-studied problem. Due to the NP-hardness of the problem, no optimal algorithm has been presented so far. However, the heuristics presented by several researchers in the past, which are also adopted by commercial ...
During many decades, Moore's law, which predicts an exponential increase in performance of semiconductor logic circuits and memories and an exponential decrease in their area, has proven its universal validity. It also helped the semiconductor industry pre ...
