Intel’s 386 CPU is notable for being its first x86 CPU to use so-called standard cell logic, which swapped the taping out of individual transistors with wiring up standardized functional blocks. This ...
Electric-field-assisted assembly enables scalable, lithography-free fabrication of logic circuits using 2D semiconductors. It provides a practical route to high-performance electronics beyond ...
VHDL Code for Labs done in a 2nd year Digital Systems course at Queen's University. Also included are PDF files describing the labs and accessory files needed for the code to work. Most of the code ...
Abstract: The paper proposes a scheme to reduce the leakage(sub-threshold) standby power in synchronous sequential circuits by using back gate bias, scannable flip-flops and control point insertion. A ...
Consider the logic circuit in the figure shown. Determine the Boolean expression at the circuit output and simplify it. From the simplified Boolean expression, find which logic gate is redundant in ...
This series of articles reviews basic concepts, and is intended for hardware and software engineers working with embedded systems. In previous sessions we covered some of the fundamental electronic ...
Abstract: Design for testability (DFT) for synchronous sequential circuits causes redundant faults in the original circuit to be detectable in the circuit with DFT logic. It has been argued that such ...
