Sub-nanosecond Arithmetic
نویسندگان
چکیده
The SNAP (Stanford Nanosecond Arithmetic Processor) project is targeted at realizing an arithmetic processor with performance approximately an order of magnitude faster than currently available technology. The realization of SNAP is predicated on an interdisciplinary approach and effort spanning research in algorithms, data representation, CAD, circuits and devices, and packaging. SNAP is visualized as an arithmetic coprocessor implemented on an active substrate containing several chips, each of which realize a particular arithmetic function.

متن کاملA CMOS Distributed Transversal Filter for Sub-Nanosecond Pulse Synthesis
A distributed transversal filter (DTF) is a good candidate for adaptive processing of ultrafast pulses in wideband systems. In this study, we investigate DTFs for sub-nanosecond pulse shaping and synthesis using standard CMOS technologies. A 5-tap DTF was designed using LC artificial transmission lines. A pulse synthesis algorithm was developed for DTFs. A prototype was fabricated using a stand...
