ON DETECTION, ANALYSIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF TRANSIENT AND PARAMETRIC FAILURES IN NANO-SCALE CMOS VLSI

This paper presents a low power MOS-VLSI implementation of an oscillator proposed by Freeman to model a very important component of the olfactory cortex [l]. The model dynamics has time constants in the order of 11220 (s). To accomplish the long time constants a new filtering technique recently proposed [2][3] was utilized. All the blocks involving information processing were designed to operat...

Let's read! We will often find out this sentence everywhere. When still being a kid, mom used to order us to always read, so did the teacher. Some books are fully read in a week and we need the obligation to support reading. What about now? Do you still love reading? Is reading only for you who have obligation? Absolutely not! We here offer you a new book enPDFd mosfet modeling for vlsi simulat...

Circuitry that performs primitive attention tasks is presented. With the addition of feedback to a winner-take-all circuit we are able to mediate the selection of a single location within a sensory array through the use of hysteresis.

Visibility problems are investigated using reconngurable meshes. A set of algorithms are proposed on the architecture for visibility computation in two and three dimensions. We show that visibility of a total of n disjoint edges in the plane can be computed in O(1) time on an n n mesh. The result is optimal in the word model of VLSI. For the case that the edges are not disjoint, the problem is ...
