Antiferromagnetic Programmable Neuron: Structure, Training, and Pattern Recognition Applications

Antiferromagnetic Programmable Neuron: Structure, Training, and Pattern Recognition Applications 150 150
Author(s): I. Sotnyk, O. Prokopenko

Abstract:

Artificial neurons based on antiferromagnetic (AFM) spin Hall oscillators (SHOs) are promising elements for creating ultrafast, energy-efficient neuromorphic computing systems. These structures can generate picosecond spikes in response to dc and ac electric currents, thereby mimicking the reaction of biological neurons to an external stimulus. However, conventional AFM neurons have …

A Wide-Dynamic-Range Photovoltaic Energy Harvester With Adaptive Power-Scalable MPPT Control and Direct Power-to-Digital Converter

A Wide-Dynamic-Range Photovoltaic Energy Harvester With Adaptive Power-Scalable MPPT Control and Direct Power-to-Digital Converter 150 150
Author(s): Yuyan Liu, Huajun Zhang, Mustafa Becermis, Jieyu Liao, Mohit Dandekar, Kofi A. A. Makinwa, Qinwen Fan

Abstract:

This article presents a photovoltaic energy harvester (PVEH) that achieves high maximum power point tracking (MPPT) efficiency and power conversion efficiency across a $100~000{\times }$ input power dynamic range (DR) (from $10~{\mu }$ W to 1W). Wide-dynamic-range operation is challenging due to the inherent tradeoff between MPPT accuracy and controller power consumption. …

A 16 MHz RC Frequency Reference With ±450 ppm Inaccuracy From –45 °C to 85 °C After Accelerated Aging

A 16 MHz RC Frequency Reference With ±450 ppm Inaccuracy From –45 °C to 85 °C After Accelerated Aging 150 150
Author(s): Karimeldeen Mohamed, Nandor G. Toth, Hui Jiang, Çağrı Gürleyük, Kofi A. A. Makinwa

Abstract:

This article presents a high-accuracy, low-drift 16MHz RC frequency reference implemented in a standard 180 nm CMOS process. It consists of a frequency-locked loop (FLL), which locks the output frequency of a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) to the time constant of a Wien Bridge (WB) filter. A PNP-based temperature sensor (TS) …

A Pseudo-Series Resonance CMOS Oscillator

A Pseudo-Series Resonance CMOS Oscillator 150 150
Author(s): Jiawen Chen, Kai Xu, Teerachot Siriburanon, Robert Bogdan Staszewski

Abstract:

This article presents a single-core, low-phase-noise (PN) digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) employing a pseudo-series resonance (pseudo-SR) technique with a transformer-based resonator. The proposed pseudo-SR resonator offers two key advantages: 1) a low impedance with a 180° phase shift at the impedance pole, emulating series resonance (SR) to enable single-stage oscillation and reduce …

A Self-Injection LC Oscillator for Flicker Noise Reduction

A Self-Injection LC Oscillator for Flicker Noise Reduction 150 150
Author(s): Bahram Jafari, Ali Ghafari, Sankaran Aniruddhan, Shahriar Mirabbasi, Sudip Shekhar

Abstract:

Self-injection has been used in lasers and photonic integrated circuits to reduce the laser’s phase noise (PN). We show that self-injection can be leveraged in GHz LC oscillators as well. Our oscillator employs a current-domain self-injection technique by leveraging second-harmonic extraction, capacitive phase shifting, and self-mixing through the oscillator’…

A 298–334-GHz Scalable Injection-Locked Phased-Array Radiator With Second-Subharmonic-Termination-Assisted Waveform Formulation for Power Enhancement

A 298–334-GHz Scalable Injection-Locked Phased-Array Radiator With Second-Subharmonic-Termination-Assisted Waveform Formulation for Power Enhancement 150 150
Author(s): Meng Yang, Liang Wu

Abstract:

This article introduces an injection-locked $4\times 2$ phased-array radiator featuring scalability in both horizontal and vertical dimensions. The system architecture is constructed by sequentially cascading four identical phase-shifting and frequency-quadrupling (PSFQ) elements in a chain-like configuration and then cohering two such chains, thereby achieving global frequency synchronization. Particularly, phase shifting and …
