With technology scaling, vulnerability to soft errors in random logic is increasing. There is a need for on-line error detection and protection for logic gates even at sea level. The error checker is the key element for an on-line detection mechanism. We compare three different checkers for error detection from the point of view of area, power and false error detection rates. We find that the double...
While the CMOS analog circuits can be designed with the minimum-gate-length of the fabrication process in the alpha-power law MOSFET model, the length of a MOSFET gate has been chosen to be a larger scale than the minimum-gate-length in the conventional Shockleypsilas square model. In this paper, we describe a 6-b 100 MSPS CMOS current steering digital-to-analog converter (DAC) with the alpha-power...
This paper introduces a novel current sense amplifier (CSA) in sub-32nm fully depleted (FD) double-gate (DG) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology with planar independent self-aligned gates. A new architecture is proposed which takes advantage of the back gate in order to improve circuit properties. Compared to the reference circuit, the new architecture proves to be faster (21% sensing delay decrease),...
To increase memory bandwidth with minimum area overhead, the new concept of 3D-stacked memory structure consisting of a small sense amplifier shared with a few 3D memory cells has been presented. The 16 bit 3D-stacked TiO2 memory chip was fabricated and demonstrated. The estimated bandwidth per unit area of 3D-stacked memory in sub-65 nm CMOS technology indicates that the 3D-stacked memory has potential...
In deep submicron era, to prevent larger amount of SRAM from more frequently encountered overheating problems and react accordingly for each possible hotspots, multiple ideal run-time temperature sensors must be closely located and response rapidly to secure system reliability while maintaining core frequency. This paper presented a method to extract run-time temperature information from multiple...
