Abstract:

The capability to detect small objects precisely in real time is essential for intelligent systems, particularly in advanced driver assistance systems (ADASs), as it ensures continuous awareness of distant obstacles for enhanced safety. However, achieving high detection precision for small objects requires high-resolution input inference on deep convolutional neural network (…

A Calibration-Free Pipelined-SAR ADC With Cross-Stage Gain-Mismatch Error Shaping and Inherent Noise Shaping

A Calibration-Free Pipelined-SAR ADC With Cross-Stage Gain-Mismatch Error Shaping and Inherent Noise Shaping 150 150
Author(s): Jihang Gao, Yaohui Luan, Siyuan Ye, Jiajia Cui, Xinhang Xu, Linxiao Shen

Abstract:

This article presents a calibration-free pipelined-successive-approximation-register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) based on the proposed cross-stage gain-mismatch-error shaping (CS-GMES) mechanism. The CS-GMES is realized by including the entire 2nd stage into MES operation to unify the gain error and the 2nd-stage mismatch error. A feedback capacitor provides cross-stage connection and mismatch …

A Unified Early-Warning AVFS Design With Path Activation-Aware Monitoring Point Optimization

A Unified Early-Warning AVFS Design With Path Activation-Aware Monitoring Point Optimization 150 150
Author(s): Cai Li, Kaize Zhou, Junyi Qian, Haochang Zhi, Weiwei Shan

Abstract:

This work proposes a unified early-warning adaptive voltage-frequency scaling (AVFS) system that offers a practical low-power solution for commercial IoT devices. First, a path activation-aware monitoring point optimization strategy is proposed to mitigate the risk of illegal voltage scaling. The strategy combines the path activation evaluation with the required timing …
