Analysis of Functional Errors Produced by Long-Term Workload-Dependent BTI Degradation in Ultra-Low Power Processors

David Atienza Alonso, Alexandre Sébastien Julien Levisse, Miguel Peon Quiros, Ruben Braojos Lopez, Loris Gérard Duch

Aging effects in digital circuits change the switching characteristics of their transistors, resulting in timing violations that can lead to functional errors at the system level. In particular, BTI is a degradation effect that changes the threshold voltag ...

A machine learning approach for power gating the FPGA routing network

Mirjana Stojilovic

Power gating is a common approach for reducing circuit static power consumption. In FPGAs, resources that dominate static power consumption lie in the routing network. Researchers have proposed several heuristics for clustering multiplexers in the routing ...

Multi-level high-voltage power supply for dea application

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Morgan Almanza

In order to reap the benefits of Dielectric Elastomer Actuator (DEA) high energy density, the electronics powering the actuator should be as small as possible. Knowing that only a small fraction of the energy delivered to DEAs is effectively converted into ...

Exploration of Negative Capacitance Devices and Technologies

Ali Saeidi

Conventional device scaling has been the main guiding principle of the MOS device engineering over these past years. However, this aggressive scaling would be eventually limited due to the inability to remove the heat generated by MOSFET devices. The power ...
