An efficient modeling technique and a novel CAD tool for the accurate prediction of the performance of integrated inductors and transformers is presented. This generic and process-independent approach generates lumped-element models that easily plug into the RF IC design flow. Their accuracy is established through comparisons with measurements of numerous fabricated inductor structures. This pa...

Absfrncr -The computer-aided design of a VLSI PCM-FDM transmultiplexer is presented. The entire design process from sysrem specifiearions to integrated circuit layout is carried out with the aid of specialized computer programs for analysis, synthesis and optimization at each design level: the firter network, the architecture and the circuit layout. These CAD tools support a top-down custom des...

-In this paper a 4 bit parallel adder/subtractor circuit has been designed and analyzed. The circuit uses a controlled adder/subtractor circuit which converts the negative numbers into their 2’s complement. A comparative study of the silicon area and the power consumption has been done in the circuit using different channel lengths such as 65nm, 45nm. The circuit is designed and simulated using...

The recent convergence of applications (Internet and embedded applications) and technology (reuse and very high integration level) trends resulted in a strong need for design of soft real-time DSP systems on silicon. We developed a new hierarchical modular approach for synthesis of area efficient soft real-time DSP systems on silicon. This synthesis strategy employs a number of optimization int...

Decomposition of any Boolean Function BFn of n binary inputs into an optimal inverter coupled network of Symmetric Boolean functions SFk (k ≤ n) is described. Each SF component is implemented by Threshold Logic Cells, forming a complete and compact T -Cell Library. Optimal phase assignment of input polarities maximizes local symmetries. Rank spectrum is a new BFn description independent of inpu...

Ž . Micro-stereolithography mSL is a novel micro-manufacturing process which builds the truly 3D microstructures by solidifying the liquid monomer in a layer by layer fashion. In this work, an advanced mSL apparatus is designed and developed which includes an Ar laser, the beam delivery system, computer-controlled precision x–y–z stages and CAD design tool, and in situ process monitoring system...

silicon (si) is considered as one of the beneficial elements for plants that play important roles in plant resistance to stresses. in this experiment, the effects of three levels of silicon (0, 0.85 and 1.7 mm) on the growth and physiological processes of pumpkin were studied in plants inoculated with sphaerotheca fuliginea (250000 conidia ml−1) and non-inoculated plants under hydroponic condit...

This paper describes a procedure that makes it possible to design and fabricate (including sealing) microfluidic systems in an elastomeric material [Formula: see text] poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) [Formula: see text] in less than 24 h. A network of microfluidic channels (with width >20 μm) is designed in a CAD program. This design is converted into a transparency by a high-resolution printer; ...

although genetic variants that affect susceptibility to coronary artery disease (cad) have been greatly known, a number of these single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) remain to be analyzed in populations with different ethnicities. cad is influenced by numerous genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors, and is an important reason for mortality around the globe. in this study, a novel snp (...

The analysis and implementation of a CAD tool that can generate the structural description of converters for the Residue Arithmetic System (RNS), assisting the engineer in the architecture level exploration, is presented. The above description is based on a previous proposed architecture [I]. [2], which has been reported as an efficient known to date in terms of area and delay. The outputs of t...
