A Complementary Positive Feedback-Assisted Current Mirror-Based Level Shifter for Energy-Efficient Level Conversion for Wide Voltage Ranges 150 150
Author(s): Shin Han, Gicheol Shin, Jongmin Lee, Yoonmyung Lee

Abstract:

A complementary positive feedback-assisted current mirror-based level shifter (CPFLS) is proposed to reliably convert subthreshold signals to higher voltages. By adopting a positive feedback structure, the CPFLS mitigates the delay degradation and short-circuit current issues inherent in a prior art, WCMLS, due to its negative feedback design. Additionally, the CPFLS …

High-Entropy Analog-Based Strong Physical Unclonable Function With Area-to-Entropy-ratio of 166 F2/bit

High-Entropy Analog-Based Strong Physical Unclonable Function With Area-to-Entropy-ratio of 166 F2/bit 150 150

Abstract:

In this letter, we present a high-entropy strong physically unclonable function (PUF) utilizing weak-inversion current mirrors implemented in a standard 65-nm CMOS technology. Each response bit of the proposed PUF relies on the threshold voltage differences of minimum-sized transistors arranged in a $32\times 32$ matrix. The analog operating principle enables encoding …
