The possibility of using window comparators for onchip (and potentially on-line) response evaluation of analogue circuits is investigated. No additional analogue test inputs are required and the additional circuitry can be realised either by means of standard digital gates taken from an available library or by full custom designed gates to obtain an observation window tailored to the applicatio...

This paper summarizes the content and application of the SEED2002 project. SEED2002 is a university/industry collaboration to enhance and reform the education in the field of semi-custom/full-custom ASIC design at the universities of Mannheim, Heidelberg and Kaiserslautern, Germany. With this project Cadence Design Systems enables us to teach leading-edge ASIC design using their most innovative...

Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) magneto-spectroscopy is a powerful spectroscopic technique used to investigate many important effects in materials, e.g., electron spin resonance, cyclotron and transitions between Landau levels. Despite their enormous potential material science, magneto-spectrometers are still relatively rare custom-made since such systems generally require complex infrastruct...
