Due to shrinking technology, increasing functional frequency and density, and reduced noise margins with supply voltage scaling, the sensitivity of designs to supply voltage noise...
This paper presents a variation resilient circuit design technique for maintaining parametric yield of design under inherent variation in process parameters. We propose to utilize...
Many embedded systems contain resource constrained microcontrollers where applications, operating system components and device drivers reside within a single address space with no...
