The explosive growth in digital data and its growing role in real-time analytics motivate the design of high-performance database management systems (DBMSs). Meanwhile, slowdown in supply voltage scaling has stymied improvements in core performance and ush ...
Ferroelectric materials offer a broad range of application-relevant properties, including spontaneous polarization switchable by electric field. Archetypical representatives of this class of materials are perovskites, currently used in applications ranging ...
The demand on high speed Analog to Digital Converters (ADCs) has increased considerably the last years. From communications circuit to high speed oscilloscopes, Giga Samples per second (GS/s) ADCs are requested. With the scaling of the CMOS technology, des ...
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 ...
This paper presents a microwave noise source implemented in a commercial CMOS technology. The circuit is based on the avalanche noise generated by both the source-to-bulk and the drain-to-bulk junctions in reverse breakdown. Two sources of different juncti ...

Binary keypoint descriptors provide an efficient alternative to their floating-point competitors as they enable faster processing while requiring less memory. In this paper, we propose a novel framework to learn an extremely compact binary descriptor we ca ...
The design and characterization of an imaging sensor based on single photon avalanche diodes is presented. The sensor was fully integrated in a 0.35µm CMOS technology. The core of the imager is an array of 4x112 pixels that independently and simultaneously ...
