Brown adipose fat tissue of a mouse dissipates the animal’s energy in the form of heat. Chronically recording the temperature of this tissue helps biologists to study the metabolism of the animal and gain new insights about the obesity in humans. Such temp ...
The routing architecture, heavily using programmable switches, dominates the area, delay and power of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). Resistive Random Access Memories (RRAMs) enable high-performance routing architectures through the r ...
Recent research advocates large die-stacked DRAM caches in manycore servers to break the memory latency and bandwidth wall. To realize their full potential, die-stacked DRAM caches necessitate low lookup latencies, high hit rates and the efficient use of o ...
In view of the Large Hadrons Collider experiments upgrade, where the inner front-end electronics will require higher supply power, a new power distribution scheme has to be designed. This thesis presents a new and more efficient scheme based on step-down D ...
Technology scaling improves the energy, performance, and area of the digital circuits. With further scaling into sub-45nm regime, we are moving toward very low supply (VDD) and threshold voltages (VT), smaller VDD/VT ratio, high leakage current, and large ...
The emerging three-dimensional (3D) integration technology is expected to lead to an industry paradigm shift due to its tremendous benefits. Intense research activities are going on about technology, simulation, design, and product prototypes. This thesis ...
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 8b 1.2 GS/s single-channel Successive Approximation Register (SAR) ADC is implemented in 32 nm CMOS, achieving 39.3 dB SNDR and a Figure-of-Merit (FoM) of 34 fJ per conversion step. High-speed operation is achieved by converting each sample with two alt ...

This paper presents the design of a dual-channel 4-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) for the sub-sampling impulse radio ultra-wideband receiver with the sampling rate of 2.112 GS/s. The ADC's specifications are optimized at the system level. Two parall ...
The main aim of this thesis is to examine the advantages of 3D stacking applied to microprocessors and related integrated microprocessor systems in the architectural level. In the succession of years microprocessors are aiming towards lower power consumpti ...
