We propose a novel, non-simulative, probabilistic model for switching activity in sequential circuits, capturing both spatio-temporal correlations at internal nodes and higher ord...

As we scale down to deep submicron (DSM) technology, noise is becoming a metric of equal importance as power, speed, and area. Smaller feature sizes, low voltage, and high frequen...
Achieving design closure is one of the biggest headaches for modern VLSI designers. This problem is exacerbated by high-level design automation tools that ignore increasingly impo...

We present a low-power sine-output Direct Digital Frequency Synthesizer (DDFS) realized in 0.18 µm CMOS that achieves 60 dBc spectral purity from DC to the Nyquist frequency. No ...
This article describes a standard cell based novel implementation of a low-power Viterbi Decoder (VD) targeted for the IEEE 802.11a Wireless LAN system. Multiple clock rates have ...
