In this paper, we introduce the open-source PivPav backend tool for reconfigurable computing. Essentially, PivPav provides an interface to a library of digital circuits that are ke...
Although the energy required to perform a logic operation has continuously dropped at least by ten orders of magnitude since early vacuumtube electronics [1], the increasing clock ...
The increasing complexity of today's mixed-signal integrated circuits necessitates both top-down and bottom-up system-level verification. Time-domain state-space modeling and...
