Abstract:

This work presents a bandwidth augmented sub-sampling phase-locked loop (BASS-PLL) architecture that features simultaneous out-of-band noise suppression by direct and multipath sampling of the ring oscillator’s (ROs) output and in-band noise suppression via an intrinsic sub-sampling mechanism, ultimately combining the benefits of over-sampling PLLs (OS-PLLs) and sub-sampling PLLs (SS-PLLs) …

A 28-nm Digital Compute-in-Memory Ising Annealer With Asynchronous Random Number Generator for Traveling Salesman Problem

A 28-nm Digital Compute-in-Memory Ising Annealer With Asynchronous Random Number Generator for Traveling Salesman Problem 150 150
Author(s): Yuyao Kong, Haomei Liu, Vaidehi Garg, Shimeng Yu

Abstract:

This work presents a compact digital compute-in-memory (DCIM) Ising annealer targeting large-scale combinatorial optimization. A centroid-based weight mapping method combined with hierarchical clustering reduces the memory capacity required for traveling salesman problem (TSP) weights, enabling efficient mapping with limited on-chip storage. An asynchronous random number generator (ARNG) based on dual …

A Zero-Voltage Switching Buck Converter With Enhanced Efficiency Over a Wide Load Range

A Zero-Voltage Switching Buck Converter With Enhanced Efficiency Over a Wide Load Range 150 150
Author(s): Jingyi Yuan, Qingqing Min, Siyang Liu, Lin Cheng

Abstract:

This article presents a wide-input-range buck converter featuring a conduction-loss-minimized zero-voltage switching (ZVS) technique. The proposed ZVS topology enables accurate ZVS operation across a wide range of input voltage ( $V_{\mathrm {IN}}$ ) and load current ( $I_{\mathrm {O}}$ ). By keeping the auxiliary inductor current pulse in the ZVS branch separate …

24.86 Gb/s Full-Digital Chaos Random Number 1.53 GSamples/s Noise Generator in 40nm CMOS

24.86 Gb/s Full-Digital Chaos Random Number 1.53 GSamples/s Noise Generator in 40nm CMOS 150 150
Author(s): Cheng-Bin Chen, Tsung Chen, Yuan-Hao Huang

Abstract:

This letter presents a fully digital true random number generator (TRNG) and noise generator (NG) based on a chaos system. We design the chaos random number generator (CRNG) using the proposed Euler-based modified Lorenz system with periodic perturbation and modified modulo unit. The chaos NG (CNG) processor integrates the CRNG …

A 45-V Auto-Zero-Stabilized Chopper Instrumentation Amplifier With 1.8- μ V Offset, 33.5- μ V Ripple, and 42-V Common-Mode Input Range

A 45-V Auto-Zero-Stabilized Chopper Instrumentation Amplifier With 1.8- μ V Offset, 33.5- μ V Ripple, and 42-V Common-Mode Input Range 150 150
Author(s): Jiahao Wang, Shen Ye, Shiqi Zhang, Zhiliang Hong, Jiawei Xu

Abstract:

This letter presents a 45V high-precision current-feedback instrumentation amplifier (CFIA) that combines both chopping and auto-zeroing (AZ) to achieve 1.8- $mu $ V input offset (10 samples) and 33.5- $mu $ V input-referred ripple. The AZ is duty cycled to minimize power and silicon area, with a parallel auxiliary path operating during AZ …
