An analog system-on-chip for kernel-based pattern classification and sequence estimation is presented. State transition probabilities conditioned on input data are generated by an integrated support vector machine. Dot product based kernels and support vector coefficients are implemented in analog programmable floating gate translinear circuits, and probabilities are propagated and normalized u...

This paper describes three micromachined planar inductors (a spiral type, a solenoid type, and a toroidal meander type) with electroplated nickel–iron permalloy cores which have been realized on a silicon wafer using micromachining techniques. The electrical properties among the fabricated inductors are compared and the related fabrication issues are discussed, with emphasis on the low-temperat...

The design and simulation of a 1.35 GHz fully integrated CMOS frequency synthesizer for a double band receiver is presented. The proposed synthesizer is based in a wide-band PLL topology with a high reference frequency. This approach allows obtaining low phase noise, fast switching time, a low divider ratio and a reduction in the total chip area. Besides, the use of a novel charge-pump circuit ...

Analog circuits provide the critical interfaces between the digital world inside today’s integrated circuits and the physical world. Semiconductor technology scaling driven by ’Moore’s Law’ has resulted in a phenomenal scaling of the performance of digital processors and memory. Continuing design innovations have enabled the scaling of analog interfaces onto scaled CMOS technologies, even thoug...

Copyright 2012 Novel SiGe Processes and Devices for Nano-Photonics Applications PI: Prabhakar Bandaru Experts in the photonics industry see potential in the integration of Germaniumbased optical components with conventional CMOS-based electronics, allowing for the development of opto-electronic integrated circuits with superior performance and functionality (compared to optical or electronic ci...

We present a preliminary analysis of various options and strategies for the development of hybrid CMOS/nanodevice integrated circuits, in particular those of “CMOL” type and its later varieties, and an assessment of the possible impact of this technology for several key areas of microelectronics. We believe that CMOL technology and/or its cousins is the most natural (and possibly the only pract...

This paper deals with two types of inverter structure design using CMOS and adiabatic technique. Power consumption is the important and basic parameters of any kind of digital integrated circuit (IC). There is always a tradeoff between power and performance to meet the systems requirement. System cost is directly affected by power. Adiabatic circuits are those circuits which work on the princip...

A novel circuit model based on a trainable memristorcrossbar network integrated with a CMOS circuit for pattern classification and recognition is proposed and analyzed in this paper. The configurable memristors along each column wires of the crossbar are trained by a standard pattern input from the row wires of the crossbar to represent the pattern. After the training, the crossbar network can ...

Now CMOS transistors are widespread component basis for digital integrated circuits. But its have a disadvantage that is high sensitiveness to environment effects such as temperature and radiation. The disadvantage restrains using CMOS IC in electronics equipment worked in extremal conditions. There is a alternative component basis that is junction field effect transistors (JFET) which possesse...
