The research goal of this project is to devise CAD techniques for the performancedirected synthesis of digital VLSI circuits, focused on digital signal processing applications. The main goal is to develop expert system techniques that are designed to yield optimal performance in these signal processing systems through a fundamental approach to the design task. An overall design involves the spe...

——Superconductor logic has the potential of extremely low-power consumption and ultra-fast digital signal processing. Unfortunately, the obtained yield of the present processes is low and specific faults occur. This paper deals with fault-modelling, Design-for-Test structures, and ATPG for these integrated circuits. Index Terms—— Fault modelling, Design-for-Test, Defect Monitor Structures, ATPG

Through lectures (6 H) Understand parasitic emission mechanisms Introduce parasitic emission reduction strategies Give an overview of emission and susceptibility measurement standards Power Decoupling Network modelling Basis of conducted and radiated emission modelling Basis of immunity modelling Understand the role of decoupling at printed-circuit-board level Acquire basic knowledge of design ...

The ability to integrate micro-optical elements with movable structures and microactuators has opened up many new opportunities for optical and optoelectronic systems"2. It allows us to manipulate optical beams more effectively than conventional methods, and is scalable to large optical systems. Optical MEMS (MicroElectroMechanical Systems) have applications in di~play~"'~, sensing6, and optica...

Driven by the demand of the bioelectronics market, many biosensors need to work in parallel or in a controllable way to achieve complicated biodetections, however the limited scale, speed, cost, complex signal processing, and bulky circuit routing problems prohibit the discrete biosensor solutions (Drummond et al., 2003). Nowaday biosensor are usually integrated on the same substrate to form bi...

This paper focuses test strategy for integrated circuits mainly mixed signal ones. The aim is the development of circuits that can help the test of integrated circuits, especially of MADBIST, in which it is necessary, a high quality analog signal easily configurable and easily integrated in silicon. These circuits can be inserted into any microprocessor or circuit, as a Core. For this system, w...

A major goal of synthetic biology is to develop a deeper understanding of biological design principles from the bottom up, by building circuits and studying their behavior in cells. Investigators initially sought to design circuits "from scratch" that functioned as independently as possible from the underlying cellular system. More recently, researchers have begun to develop a new generation of...
