P-Dits for the Frequency Assignment Problem With Transmitter Deactivation in Dense Environments

P-Dits for the Frequency Assignment Problem With Transmitter Deactivation in Dense Environments 150 150

Abstract:

The frequency assignment problem is a nondeterministic polynomial-time hard (NP-hard) optimization problem concerning the assignment of frequency channels to wireless transmitters. Typically, the aim is to minimize interference between transmitters while maintaining a high level of service. In this work, the use of probabilistic d-dimensional bits, or p-dits, for this …

Design and Analysis of a Three-Stream STT-MTJ TRNG With XOR and Majority Voter Logic as Postprocessing Architectures

Design and Analysis of a Three-Stream STT-MTJ TRNG With XOR and Majority Voter Logic as Postprocessing Architectures 150 150

Abstract:

True random number generators (TRNGs) are critical for hardware security, providing unpredictable entropy for cryptographic applications. Spin-transfer torque magnetic tunnel junction (STT-MTJ) devices offer a promising entropy source due to their low-power consumption, nonvolatility, and stochastic switching behavior. This work presents an MTJ-based TRNG that produces three independent bit streams. …

A 180-nm Voltage-Controlled Magneto-Electric RAM With Sub-1-ns Switching Time

A 180-nm Voltage-Controlled Magneto-Electric RAM With Sub-1-ns Switching Time 150 150

Abstract:

Memory performance has emerged as a critical factor influencing both system speed and energy efficiency. However, conventional memory technologies such as embedded Flash (eFlash) and static RAM (SRAM) encounter significant scalability limitations beyond the 28-nm CMOS node. Among novel emerging memory technologies, spin-transfer-torque magnetic RAM (STT-MRAM) has gained prominence due …

Reference-Load Sharing Scheme: An Area- and Energy-Efficient Nonvolatile Register Design Using MTJ Devices

Reference-Load Sharing Scheme: An Area- and Energy-Efficient Nonvolatile Register Design Using MTJ Devices 150 150

Abstract:

This article proposes a circuit configuration for an area- and energy-efficient nonvolatile register using magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) devices, suitable for persistent computation in intermittent computing environments. The proposed configuration, named the reference-load sharing scheme (RLSS), stores 1 bit of information using the resistance of a dedicated MTJ device and a …
