Total Ionizing Dose Effects on Analog Performance of 28 nm Bulk MOSFETs

Christian Enz, Claudio Bruschini, Farzan Jazaeri, Chunmin Zhang, Alessandro Pezzotta

This paper uses the simplified charge-based EKV MOSFET model for studying the effects of total ionizing dose (TID) on analog parameters and figures-of-merit (FoMs) of 28nm bulk MOSFETs. These effects are demonstrated to be fully captured by the five key pa ...

Variability of the raindrop size distribution across scales in Mediterranean rainfall : characterisation and stochastic simulation

Timothy Hugh Raupach

Measurement of rain is made difficult by the high variability of the precipitation process, down to raindrop scale. Point measurements are generally accurate, but their lack of spatial representativeness is a significant limitation. Weather radars indirect ...

A Cryogenic 1 GSa/s, Soft-Core FPGA ADC for Quantum Computing Applications

Edoardo Charbon

We propose an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) architecture, implemented in an FPGA, that is fully reconfigurable and easy to calibrate. This approach allows to alter the design, according to the system requirements, with simple modifications in the firmw ...

OTA-C based high-speed analog processing for real-time fault location in electrical power networks

Maher Kayal, François Krummenacher, François Pierre Gaugaz

This paper explores the potential and limitations of analog integrated circuit techniques for the simulation of low-loss or lossless 1D or 2D transmission mediums. In this approach, a transmission line is mapped into a ladder consisting of N identical LC e ...

Dynamic Range Limiting of HRTFs: Principle and Objective evaluation

Hervé Lissek, Patrick Marmaroli, Gilles André Courtois, Lukas Rohr

This research addresses the challenge of incorporating dynamic range limiting of the magnitude response of HRTFs for hearing-impaired listeners who are using binaural hearing aids. In this application, a direct implementation of spatialization using the or ...

Novel GCC-PHAT Model in Diffuse Sound Field for Microphone Array Pairwise Distance Based Calibration

Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh

We propose a novel formulation of the generalized cross correlation with phase transform (GCC-PHAT) for a pair of microphones in diffuse sound field. This formulation elucidates the links between the microphone distances and the GCC-PHAT output. Hence, it ...

Compact Low-Power Cortical Recording Architecture for Compressive Multichannel Data Acquisition

Pierre Vandergheynst, Alexandre Schmid, Mahsa Shoaran, Mahdad Hosseini Kamal

This paper introduces an area- and power-efficient approach for compressive recording of cortical signals used in an implantable system prior to transmission. Recent research on compressive sensing has shown promising results for sub-Nyquist sampling of sp ...

Structured Sparsity Models for Reverberant Speech Separation

Volkan Cevher, Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammad Golbabaee

We tackle the multi-party speech recovery problem through modeling the acoustic of the reverberant chambers. Our approach exploits structured sparsity models to perform room modeling and speech recovery. We propose a scheme for characterizing the room acou ...

A Remotely Powered Implantable IC for Recording Mouse Local Temperature with +/- 0.09 degrees C Accuracy

Catherine Dehollain

Multiple techniques are presented to implement an ultra-low-power remotely powered implantable system. The temperature is monitored locally by a thermistor-type sensor. The resistive response of the sensor is amplified and resolved in the time-domain. The ...
