This paper describes the design and development of a module generator for a dual-rail PLA with embedded 2-input logic cells for 0.35 μm CMOS technology. In order to automatically generate logic-cell based PLA layouts from circuit specifications, a module generator as a design automation tool of logic-cell based PLA is developed with a structural improvement. This module generator is based on a ...

Two Diophantine equation generator function for integer residuals produced by integer division over closed intervals are presented. One each for the closed intervals 1, √ and √ , , respectively.

occam-pi is a programming language based on the CSP process algebra and the pi-calculus, and has a powerful syntax for expressing concurrency. occam-pi does not however, come with interfaces to a broad range of standard libraries (such as those used for graphics or mathematics). Programmers wishing to use these must write their own wrappers using occam-pi’s foreign function interface, which can...

Received Mar 14, 2014 Revised Jun 18, 2014 Accepted Jul 4, 2014 In many Engineering applications, analog circuits present many advantages over their digital counterparts and have recently been particularly used in a wide range of signal processor circuits. In this paper, an analog non-linear function synthesizer is presented based on a polynomial expansion model. The proposed function synthesiz...

where x ∈ {0, 1}ks, y ∈ {0, 1}s, and Γk : {0, 1}ks × {0, 1}s → {0, 1}ks is some function that can “recycle the randomness in x”. In the INW-generator, Γ is the neighbor function of a suitable expander graph or it is a suitable extractor. Nisan’s generator can also be cast in the framework of (1), but the definition is a bit subtle. Here the string x is of length (2k − 1) · s and of the form x =...

Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) are widely used to generate random Numbers. In this paper we propose a new architecture in which an Arbiter Based PUF has been employed as a nonlinear function in Nonlinear Feedback Shift Register (NFSR) to generate true random numbers. The rate of producing the output bit streams is 10 million bits per second. The proposed RNG is able to pass all NIST tests...

This paper proposes a realization of power factor function generator having an arbitrary base and power factor which are determined by the ratios of the currents provided from outside of the circuit. The circuit characteristics do not depend on any transistor parameters, temperature, and other environmental conditions. The circuit operation is based on current mode that has a capability of low ...
