A 12-Gb/s Source-Synchronous Single-Ended PAM-4 Transceiver With Background Adaptive Crosstalk Equalization in 28-nm CMOS

A 12-Gb/s Source-Synchronous Single-Ended PAM-4 Transceiver With Background Adaptive Crosstalk Equalization in 28-nm CMOS 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents a background adaptive crosstalk (XT) equalization technique for a single-endedfour-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-4) interface to maintain accurate XT cancellation (XTC) under environmental variations. A least-mean-square (LMS) adaptation loop adjusts the XT equalizer using a source-synchronous clock as an aggressor reference uncorrelated with the victim. At the …

A 0.73 A/mm3 Switched-Capacitor-Stack-Inductor Volumetric Integrated Voltage Regulator With Auxiliary-Assisted Gain Boosting for High-Power-Density PoL Applications

A 0.73 A/mm3 Switched-Capacitor-Stack-Inductor Volumetric Integrated Voltage Regulator With Auxiliary-Assisted Gain Boosting for High-Power-Density PoL Applications 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents a volumetric integrated voltage regulator (IVR) based on a switched-capacitor-stack-inductor (SCSL) architecture that employs a holistic topology-control-package codesign to overcome the hardware and efficiency bottlenecks of conventional asymmetric multiinductor designs. Based on a discrete-time state-space model, a rigorous root-locus analysis reveals that a rudimentary single voltage-mode control …

Design and Analysis of Windmill-Shaping-Geometry Eight-Phase Oscillator Incorporating Magnetic and Dual-Injection Coupling Techniques

Design and Analysis of Windmill-Shaping-Geometry Eight-Phase Oscillator Incorporating Magnetic and Dual-Injection Coupling Techniques 150 150

Abstract:

This article reports a compact millimeter-wave (mm-wave) quad-core eight-phase oscillator featuring magnetic coupling and dual-injection coupling. Specifically, the quad-core oscillator is integrated in an LC-ring configuration via a windmill-shaping transformer for phase noise (PN) and chip area reduction. The eight-phase oscillator could eliminate the oscillation mode ambiguity and save the …

A Coherent Polar Phase-Tracking Receiver With High ACR and Relaxed I/Q Generation

A Coherent Polar Phase-Tracking Receiver With High ACR and Relaxed I/Q Generation 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents a coherent polar phase-tracking receiver (PT-RX) for low-power Internet-of-Things(IoT) applications that supports Gaussian frequency-shift keying (GFSK), quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), and amplitude phase shift keying (APSK). Existing single-path closed-loop receivers achieve low power but suffer from a fundamental tradeoff between loop stability and adjacent channel rejection (…

A Runtime Reconfigurable Array (RTRA) for Multiprogram ML and DSP Acceleration With Hierarchical Partitioning and On-Chip Multilevel Scheduling

A Runtime Reconfigurable Array (RTRA) for Multiprogram ML and DSP Acceleration With Hierarchical Partitioning and On-Chip Multilevel Scheduling 150 150

Abstract:

Emerging applications with highly dynamic digital signal processing (DSP) and machine-learning (ML) workloads demand a hardware platforms that simultaneously deliver high performance, high energy efficiency, and low-latency reconfiguration. Such systems must adapt to evolving algorithms, variable data rates, and multiprogram tenancy without incurring prohibitive switching overhead. The conventional reconfigurable architectures …
