Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) technology is considered to be a possible alternative for circuit implementation in terms of energy efficiency, integration density and switching frequency. Multiplexer (MUX) can suitable candidate designing QCA circuits. In this paper, two different structures energy-efficient 2×1 MUX designs are proposed. These MUXes outperform the best existing design powe...

A novel adiabatic couplers (ACs) based broadband and fabrication-tolerant two-mode multiplexer (MUX) is designed using silicon-on-insulator (SOI) platform. Being different from the previously reported ACs-based scheme, the converted and multiplexed signals are on conventional modes, rather than supermodes. The experimental results are in good agreement with the simulations. Over a wavelength ra...

The Simons Observatory (SO) will be a cosmic microwave background (CMB) survey experiment with three small-aperture telescopes and one large-aperture telescope, which observe from the Atacama Desert in Chile. In total, SO field ~70,000 transition-edge sensor (TES) bolometers six spectral bands centered between 27 280 GHz order to achieve sensitivity necessary measure or constrain numerous cosmo...

We propose a compact matrix-switch-based hierarchical optical cross-connect (HOXC) architecture that effectively handles the colorless waveband add/drop ratio restriction so as to realize switch scale reduction. In order to implement the colorless waveband add/drop function, we develop a wavelength MUX/DMUX that can be commonly used by different wavebands. We prove that the switch scale of the ...

Because of its advantages of the short design turnaround time and the convenience and low cost in integrated circuit prototyping and verification, the field programmable gate array (FPGA) has been widely utilized in many fields of electronic design. In this paper, a technology mapping algorithm for FPGA with MUX-LUT mixed architecture is presented. This algorithm, FMAP, is used in a design-aid ...

In recent years, high-speed communication systems beyond 10Gb/s have been realized in CMOS technology. A 40Gb/s transmitter including the MUX has been developed in 0.13μm CMOS [1], and a 40Gb/s MUX/DEMUX in 90nm CMOS has been reported [2]. These circuits extend the bandwidth with inductive peaking for 40Gb/s operation. They use supply voltages that exceed the logic supplies used in these techno...

Commercial UNIX window systems are unsatisfactory. Because they are cumbersome and complicated, they are unsuitable companions for an operating system that is appreciated for its technical elegance. Their clumsy user interfaces clutter the view of the operating system. A good interface should clarify the view, not obscure ít. Mux is one window system that is popular and therefore worth studying...

We propose a new design for testability technique, Parallel Serial Full Scan (PSFS), for reducing the test application time for full scan embedded cores. Test application time reduction is achieved by dividing the scan chain into multiple partitions and shifting in the same vector to each scan chain through a single scan in input. The experimental results for the ISCAS89 circuits showed that PS...
