A single-chip sensor system-on-a-chip (SoC) that implements radio for 2.4 GHz, complete digital baseband physical layer (PHY), 10-bit sigma-delta analog-to-digital converter and dedicated sensor calibration hardware for industrial sensing systems has been proposed and integrated in a 0.18-μm CMOS technology. The transceiver's building block includes a low-noise amplifier, mixer, channel filter,...

In an environment such as underwater channel where placing test equipments are difficult to handle, it is much practical to have hardware simulators to examine suitably designed transceivers (transmitter/receiver). The simulators of this kind will then allow researchers to observe their intentions and carry out repetitive tests to find suitable digital coding/decoding algorithms. In this p...

Recent technology growth permit engineer to design various complex applications on single-on-chip (SoC) related to communication, Image Processing, video processing, digital signal processing. In all of these complex algorithms, FFT blocks are one of the most computation concentrated. Here we first introduce a novel Coarse-Grain Reconfigurable Array (CGRA) which is used as a hardware accelerato...

Due to the increasing growth of processing cores in complex computational systems, all the connection converted bottleneck for all systems. With the protection of progressing and constructing complex photonic connection on chip, optical data transmission is the best choice for replacing with electrical interconnection for the reason of gathering connection with a high bandwidth and insertion lo...

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...

Methods of digital signal processing in control and monitoring systems are relevant today largely replace the classic analog methods. This article discusses main methods synthesis appropriate devices, primarily filters.

We have built and tested a mixed signal Multi-Chip Module (MCM) to be used in the Pre-Processor of the ATLAS Level-1 Calorimeter Trigger. The MCM performs high speed digital signal processing on four analogue trigger input signals. Results are transmitted serially at a serial data rate of 800 MBd. Nine chips of different technologies are mounted on a four layer copper substrate. Analogue-to-dig...

Nonlinearity mitigation in optical fiber networks is typically handled by electronic Digital Signal Processing (DSP) chips. Such DSP chips are costly, power-hungry and can introduce high latencies. Therefore, techniques investigated which more efficient both power consumption processing cost. One such a machine learning technique reservoir computing, photonic chip be trained on certain tasks, w...

This paper presents selected design and operation details of a custom integrated neural chip. This neural processing chip is designed in the recent 0.18 μm, single poly, six-layer Copper Interconnect Technology. The chip realizes an architecture that achieves the task of autonomous-learning execution times in micro to milli seconds. The core consists of basic building blocks of 4-quadrant multi...
