The information revolution of the last decade has been fueled by the digitization of almost all human activities through a wide range of Internet services. The backbone of this information age are scale-out datacenters that need to collect, store, and proc ...
The advent of 3-D fabrication technology makes it possible to stack a large amount of last-level cache memory onto a multi-core die to reduce off-chip memory accesses and, thus, increases system performance. However, the higher power density (i.e., power d ...
The soaring demand for computing power in our digital information age has produced as collateral undesirable effect a surge in power consumption and heat density for computing servers. Accordingly, 30-40% of the energy consumed in state-of-the-art servers ...

This paper presents a chip-level postcomplementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) processing technique for 3-D integration and through-silicon-via (TSV) fabrication. The proposed technique is based on dry-film lithography, which is a low-cost and simple ...
An asynchronous 8x interleaved redundant SAR ADC achieving 8.8GS/s at 35mW and 1V supply is presented. The ADC features pass-gate clocking for time-skew minimization and per-channel gain control based on low-power reference voltage buffers. The sub-ADC sta ...

An area- and power-optimized asynchronous 32x interleaved SAR ADC achieving 36 GS/s at 110mW and 1V supply on the interleaver and 0.9V on the SAR ADCs is presented. The ADC features a 2-channel interleaver with data demultiplexing for enhanced bandwidth, a ...
Microfabricated electrospray thrusters are widely acknowledged as one of the most promising technologies for the propulsion of small spacecraft. Their relative simplicity, high efficiency (> 70%), low footprint (M < 500g, V < 10cm3) and large potential spe ...
