چکیده

The neu-MOS (vMOS) transistor is a new device that enables the design of conventional digital and analog circuits, in standard CMOS, with a factor of 5-10 decrease gate count. Furthermore, vMOS circuit characteristics are insensitive to transistor parameter variations but instead rely on coupling capacitor ratios. In this paper, we demonstrate this principle with results from fabricated controlled gain amplifiers. This new technology is ideal for smart sensors where a high functionality per pixel area and good matching between pixels is required. Moreover, we discuss the advantages of smart sensors in GaAs technology and the viability of developing a vGaAs paradigm.

The neuron-MOS (neu-MOS) transistor, recently discovered by Shibata and Ohmi in 1991 [T. Shibata, T. Ohmi, International Electron Devices Meeting, Technical Digest, 1991] uses capacitively coupled inputs onto a floating gate. Neu-MOS enables the design of conventional analog and digital integrated circuits with a significant reduction in transistor count [L.S.Y. Wong, C.Y. Kwok, G.A. Rigby, in:...

A 25-µW All-MOS Potentiostatic Delta-Sigma ADC for Smart Electrochemical Sensors

This paper presents a low-power all-MOS deltasigma ADC specifically optimized for the potentiostatic biasing and amperometric read-out of electrochemical sensors. The proposed architecture reuses the dynamic properties of the sensor itself to implement a continuous-time mixed electrochemical delta-sigma modulator with minimalist analog circuits fully integrable in purely digital CMOS technologi...

Behavioral Modeling and Simulation of Semiconductor Devices and Circuits Using VHDL-AMS

During the past few years, a lot of work has been done on behavioral models and simulation tools. But a need for modeling strategy still remains. The VHDL-AMS language supports the description of analog electronic circuits using Ordinary Differential Algebraic Equations (ODAEs), in addition to its support for describing discrete-event systems. For VHDL-AMS to be useful to the analog design ...

A novel vedic divider based crypto-hardware for nanocomputing paradigm: An extended perspective

Restoring and non-restoring divider has become widely applicability in the era of digital computing application due to its computation speed. In this paper, we have proposed the design of divider of different architecture for the computation of Vedic sutra based. The design of divider in the Vedic mode results in high computation throughput due to its replica architecture, where latency is mini...
