This study adds a new dimension to lab-on-a-chip systems by employing three-dimensional (3D) integration technology for improved performance, higher functionality, and on-chip computational power. Despite the extensive amount of current research on 3D memo ...
Today, the evolution of software solutions for parallel processing is strong, as a consequence of the mainstream introduction of chip-level multiprocessors. These types of parallel processors, which include general-purpose multi-cores and graphical process ...
We propose a technique to localize computation in Instruction Set Extensions (ISEs) that are clocked at very high speed with respect to the processor. In order to save power, data to and from Custom Instruction Units (CIUs) is synchronized via an optical s ...
This paper proposes an interface circuit for wirelessly powered implants for mice temperature monitoring. The circuit contains the read-out circuit and a data converter. By using a novel approach to cancel the non-linear effects of thermistor sensors, the ...
Minimally invasive monitoring of the electrical activity of specific cortical areas using implantable microsystems offers the promise of diagnosing neurological diseases, as well as detecting and identifying neural activity patterns which are specific to a ...
The jitter and the phase noise of ring oscillators utilizing subthreshold source-coupled logic (STSCL) style are analyzed in this paper. Closed-form equations are derived to predict the jitter and phase noise caused by white and flicker noise. Measurement ...
Modern society is dependent on reliable electricity for security, health, communication, transportation, finance, computers and nearly all aspects of the contemporary life. Providing reliable electricity is a very complex challenge. It involves real-time m ...
Predicting the scalability of parallel applications is becoming crucial now that the number of cores in modern CPUs doubles roughly every two years. Traditional ways to get some understanding of the scalability of a parallel application rely on extensive e ...
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 ...
