This involves testing functionality Analog, Digital Mixed Signal design results obtained during functional are verified through simulations Cadence, in case comparator ASIC, vivado...

A novel algorithm based on forward search is developed for real-time electrocardiogram (ECG) signal processing and implemented in application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) for QRS complex related cardiovascular disease diagnosis. The authors have evaluated their algorithm using MIT-BIH database and achieve sensitivity of 99.86% and specificity of 99.93% for QRS complex peak detection. In t...

This paper describes the use of flexible multi-FPGA demonstrator platforms by the processor systems group in Astrium UK to support the design and development of large ASIC-based processors. Such platforms can provide major improvements in the areas of algorithm and design validation, system demonstration and ASIC design which act to mitigate the adverse aspects of multi-ASIC system implementati...

There was a time – in the dim historical past – when foundries actually made ASICs with only 5000 to 50,000 logic gates. But FPGAs and CPLDs conquered those markets and pushed ASIC silicon toward opportunities with more logic, volume, and speed. Today's largest FPGAs approach the few-million-gate size of a typical ASIC design, and continue to sprout embedded cores, such as CPUs, memories, and i...

|We have built a fast signal-processing and readout ASIC (PPrAsic) for the Pre-Processor system of the ATLAS Level-1 Calorimeter Trigger. Our novel ASIC design environment incorporates algorithm development with digital hardware synthesis and veri cation. The purely digital ASIC was designed in Verilog HDL (hardware description language) and embedded in a system wide analog and digital simulati...

We contrasted the physiology and peripheral targets of subclassified nociceptive and non-nociceptive afferents that express ASIC-like currents. The threshold for current activation was similar in 8 distinct cell subclasses regardless of functional modality (pH 6.8). When potency was determined from concentration response curves, non-nociceptors exhibited currents with significantly greater pote...

In dieser Arbeit werden Digit-On-Line-Module für eine schnelle serielle Signalverarbeitung vorgestellt, die nach dem Most-Significant-Digit-FirstPrinzip arbeiten. Diese gestattet im Gegensatz zu der bekannten Least-Significant-Digit-First-Technik, die nur für die Addition, Subtraktion und Multiplikation ohne Einschränkungen zu verwenden ist, die Implementierung nahezu aller praktisch vorkommend...

In this paper, we present a stand alone ASIC architecture for a new edge detection algorithm, which applies the absolute diierence mask (ADM). The ASIC is built of three major blocks: smoothing, edge strength, and detection and localization blocks. To allow high{ speed processing, the architecture is nely pipelined. The proposed ASIC is capable of producing one edge{ pixel every clock cycle. At...

Cloud services are becoming increasingly globalized and data-center workloads are expanding exponentially. GPU and FPGA-based clouds have illustrated improvements in power and performance by accelerating compute-intensive workloads. ASIC-based clouds are a promising way to optimize the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of a given datacenter computation (e.g. YouTube transcoding) by reducing both en...
