The VLSI technology has led to the increased complexity in hardward design, therefore the verification for the correctness of circuit operations has become an exrtremely important task. The verification procedure can be reduced by means of the equivalent signal lines in the circuits. In this paper, a new method is presented for determining the equivalent signal lines, the method utilizes the we...

the rapid scaling in modern cmos technology has motivated the researchers to design new analog-to-digital converter (adc) architectures that can properly work in lower supply voltage. an exchanging the data quantization procedure from the amplitude to the time domain, can be a promising alternative well adapt with the technology scaling. this paper is going to review the recent development in t...

This paper demonstrates the ability of genetic programming to evolve analog circuits that perform digital functions and mixed analog-digital circuits. The evolved circuits include two purely digital circuits (a 100 nano-second NAND circuit and a two-instruction arithmetic logic unit circuit) and one mixed-signal circuit, namely a three-input digital-to-analog converter.

New control circuits and algorithms are frequently proposed to control the impedance (Z) source inverter in efficient way with added benefits. As a result, several modified control techniques have been proposed in recent years. Although these techniques are clearly superior to the simple boost control method which was initially proposed along with the Z-source inverter (ZSI), little or conf...
