چکیده
This paper explores the use of interconnect signaling techniques to improve Delay time for performance and reduce power consumption of On-chip interconnect. The various Driver–Receiver pairs such as ddc-db, asf-lc, mj-sib and mj-db for On-chip interconnect with different capacitive load at the output of the circuit are being explored in detail. A detailed comparison of the driver-receiver pairs for On-chip interconnects line with differential capacitive load from 0.5pF to 3.0pF and VDD power supply is 3.3V/1.2V has been carried out. These techniques are widely used to improve the signal bandwidth of interconnect channels and to meet the delay goal of cross-chip communication.

متن کاملTransceiver in 90 nm CMOS for 10 mm On - Chip Interconnects
The bandwidth of global on-chip interconnects in modern CMOS processes is limited by their high resistance and capacitance [1]. Repeaters that are used to speed up these interconnects consume a considerable amount of power [2] and area. Recently published techniques [1-4] increase the achievable data rate at the cost of high static power consumption, leading to relatively high energy per bit fo...
متن کاملA High Efficiency Low-Voltage Soft Switching DC–DC Converter for Portable Applications
This paper presents a novel control method to improve the efficiency of low-voltage DC-DC converters at light loads. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) converters have poor efficiencies at light loads, while pulse frequency modulation (PFM) control is more efficient for the same cases. Switching losses constitute a major portion of the total power loss at light loads. To decrease the switching losses...
متن کاملA Low-Voltage, Low-Power, Two-Stage Amplifier for Switched-Capacitor Applications in 90 nm CMOS Process
Abstract- A novel low-voltage two-stage operational amplifier employing resistive biasing is presented. This amplifier implements neutralization and correction common mode stability in second stage while employs capacitive dc level shifter and coupling between two stages. The structure reduces the power consumption and increases output voltage swing. The compensation is performed by simple mill...
متن کاملDemonstration of monolithically integrated graphene interconnects for low-power CMOS applications
In recent years, interconnects have become an increasingly difficult design challenge as their relative performance has not improved at the same pace with transistor scaling. The specifications for complex features, clock frequency, supply current, and number of I/O resources have added even greater demands for interconnect performance. Furthermore, the resistivity of copper begins to degrade a...
