A Wideband Calibration-Free D-Band Passive Phase Shifter With Frequency-Invariant Codes Over 24% Fractional Bandwidth

A Wideband Calibration-Free D-Band Passive Phase Shifter With Frequency-Invariant Codes Over 24% Fractional Bandwidth 150 150
Author(s): Basem Abdelaziz Abdelmagid, Yuqi Liu, Hua Wang

Abstract:

This work presents a compact 110–140 GHz bidirectional D-band passive phase shifter based on combining a 5-stage capacitively-loaded reflective-type PS (RTPS) with a wideband 0°/180° stage. The design achieves a 360° phase range with a resolution of 11.25°. By applying: 1) a wideband RTPS design methodology on the stage level; 2) frequency/switching-staggering techniques among the …

A 40.68-MHz Dual-Output Wireless Power Transfer System for Millimeter-Scale Biomedical Implants

A 40.68-MHz Dual-Output Wireless Power Transfer System for Millimeter-Scale Biomedical Implants 150 150
Author(s): Tianqi Lu, Sijun Du

Abstract:

This article presents a single-link, dual-output wireless power transfer (WPT) system operating at 40.68 MHz for miniature, high-power biomedical implants. The elevated carrier frequency enables a millimeter-scale receiver (RX) coil while maintaining link efficiency and output power comparable to low-frequency WPT designs. End-to-end (E2E) efficiency is optimized through global power …

A 168 nW to 44.3 Mb/s Adaptable TRNG With 400 mV Attack-Resilient Hybrid RO Core

A 168 nW to 44.3 Mb/s Adaptable TRNG With 400 mV Attack-Resilient Hybrid RO Core 150 150
Author(s): Berkay Özbek, Timothy G. Constandinou

Abstract:

This letter presents an adaptable ring oscillator (RO)-true random number generator (TRNG) that removes the fixed power–throughput tradeoff by selecting delay-cell physics at run time. A hybrid core uses a current-starved inverter in low-power (LP) mode to amplify slew-limited jitter for high bit-efficiency at low frequency, and a …

Comprehensive Device to System Co-Design for SOT-MRAM at the 7 nm Node

Comprehensive Device to System Co-Design for SOT-MRAM at the 7 nm Node 150 150
Author(s): Piyush Kumar, Da Eun Shim, Azad Naeemi

Abstract:

This work presents a comprehensive spin-orbit torque (SOT)-based magnetic random access memory (MRAM) design at the 7 nm technology node, spanning from device-level characteristics to system-level power performance area (PPA). At the device level, we show the tradeoffs among the write current, error rate, and time, based on mircomagnetic simulations. …

Understanding Reliability Trade-Offs in 1T-nC and 2T-nC FeRAM Designs

Understanding Reliability Trade-Offs in 1T-nC and 2T-nC FeRAM Designs 150 150
Author(s): Sadik Yasir Tauki, Rudra Biswas, Rakesh Acharya, Jiahui Duan, Rajiv Joshi, Kai Ni, Vijaykrishnan Narayanan

Abstract:

Ferroelectric random access memory (FeRAM) is a promising candidate for energy-efficient nonvolatile memory, particularly for logic-in-memory and compute-in-memory (CIM) applications. Among the available cell architectures, One-Transistor–n-Capacitor (1T-nC) and two-transistor–n-capacitor (2T-nC) FeRAMs each offer distinct trade-offs in density, scalability, and reliability. In this work, we present a comparative study …

Benchmarking of FERAM-Based Memory System by Optimizing Ferroelectric Device Model

Benchmarking of FERAM-Based Memory System by Optimizing Ferroelectric Device Model 150 150
Author(s): Mohammad Adnaan, Saeideh Alinezhad Chamazcoti, Emil Karimov, Marie Garcia Bardon, Francky Catthoor, Jan van Houdt, Azad Naeemi

Abstract:

We present a framework for design technology co-optimization (DTCO) of the main memory system with one transistor-one capacitor (1T1C) ferroelectric random access memory (FERAM) as an alternative to dynamic random access memory (DRAM). We start with the ferroelectric capacitor device model and perform array-level memory circuit simulation. Then, we …

A 1-8 GHz, 190MHz BB BW Mixer-First Receiver With Bootstrapped Mixer Switches Achieving Over 16dBm In-Band IIP3

A 1-8 GHz, 190MHz BB BW Mixer-First Receiver With Bootstrapped Mixer Switches Achieving Over 16dBm In-Band IIP3 150 150
Author(s): Erwin Hardeveld, Ronan van der Zee, Bram Nauta

Abstract:

In this article, we propose a wideband mixer-first receiver with improved in-band (IB) linearity. It uses bootstrapped N-path mixer switches to achieve a constant on-state gate–source voltage for large IB signals. We analyze the tradeoff between on-state resistance and off-state subthreshold current in conventional mixer switches and introduce a …

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
Author(s): Haris Suhail, Haoran He, Vinod Kurian Jacob, Jiyue Yang, Kang L. Wang, Sudhakar Pamarti

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 …
