Active decoupling capacitors (decaps) are more effective than passive decaps at reducing local IR-drop problems in the power distribution network. In the basic active decap, two p...
This paper summarizes considerations and rationales for the design of a watermark detector. In particular, we relate watermark detection to the problem of signal detection in the p...
