Author(s): Yiming Wang, Yihang Luan, Zhiliang Hong, Jiawei Xu

Abstract:

This letter presents a 10-bit ENOB charge-sharing SAR ADC with a fully integrated dynamic bandgap reference (BGR), enabling first-order noise shaping and ultralow-power (ULP) operation. The charge-sharing ADC and dynamic BGR form an ideal pair: both operate without static current, allowing compact integration and high precision. The SAR uses only …

Self-Heating and Parasitic Effects in Multi-Tier CFET Design

Self-Heating and Parasitic Effects in Multi-Tier CFET Design 150 150
Author(s): Sufia Shahin, Mahdi Benkhelifa, Yogesh Singh Chauhan, Hussam Amrouch

Abstract:

In this article, we study the impact of self-heating effects (SHEs) and middle of line (MOL) and back-end of line (BEOL) induced parasitics on multi-tier CFET design, where multiple nanosheet devices are vertically stacked. We analyze and compare the 4-tier CFET design with the conventional 2-tier CFET, using TCAD models …

A Cryogenic Superconducting Quantum Computing Unit Interface Chipset With Phase-Detection-Based Readout and Phase-Shifter-Based Controller

A Cryogenic Superconducting Quantum Computing Unit Interface Chipset With Phase-Detection-Based Readout and Phase-Shifter-Based Controller 150 150
Author(s): Yanshu Guo, Yaoyu Li, Wenqiang Huang, Tian Tian, Nan Wu, Siqi Zhang, Qichun Liu, Tiefu Li, Zhihua Wang, Ning Deng, Yuanjin Zheng, Hanjun Jiang

Abstract:

This article presents a cryogenic quantum interface chipset at 3.5 K for superconducting transmon qubit operations. The chipset comprises a phase-detection readout and a phase-shifter-based polar-modulation controller with flexible scalability. With the proposed phase-detection readout scheme, a 9-bit time-to-digital converter (TDC)-based state detector is used to read out the qubit …

A 28-nm FD-SOI CMOS Analog-IMC Core Based on PCM Featuring 8 512 × 512-Weight Layers and 28M Weights×TOPs/W/mm2

A 28-nm FD-SOI CMOS Analog-IMC Core Based on PCM Featuring 8 512 × 512-Weight Layers and 28M Weights×TOPs/W/mm2 150 150
Author(s): Marco Pasotti, Riccardo Zurla, J. J. Bertolini Agnoletto, Emanuela Calvetti, Alessio Antolini, Andrea Lico, Giuseppe Desoli, Riccardo Vignali, Luca Iannelli, Luigi Croce, Francesco Zavalloni, Eleonora Franchi Scarselli, Alessandro Cabrini

Abstract:

In-memory computing (IMC) hardware accelerators for deep neural networks (DNNs) require storing a massive number of coefficients within a single computing macro to avoid performance degradation in multicore clusters. This aspect, often overlooked by common figures of merit (FoMs), can be effectively addressed by phase-change memory (PCM) technology, thanks to …

A High-Linearity Shunt-Based In-Line Current Sensor With Self-Heating Compensation and 14.4 V 2 MHz PWM Rejection

A High-Linearity Shunt-Based In-Line Current Sensor With Self-Heating Compensation and 14.4 V 2 MHz PWM Rejection 150 150
Author(s): Heng Ma, Huajun Zhang, Yuyan Liu, Marco Berkhout, Qinwen Fan

Abstract:

This article presents a cost-effective, fully integrated shunt-resistor-based in-line current sensor that delivers high linearity and strong PWM rejection, enabling precise current measurement and control in dynamic driving systems like robotics, imaging, and audio. To mitigate the self-heating of the on-chip shunt resistor, which degrades linearity, a location-based thermal compensation …

Abstract:

This work presents a 14-bit energy-efficient bandwidth (BW)/power scalable continuous-time delta–sigma modulator (CTDSM) for sensor interfaces in IoT applications. To ensure low noise for small input signals and achieve BW/power scalability, it is built around Gm-C integrators biased via a linear frequency-controlled current source (FCCS). The FCCS …

CFET Beyond 3 nm: SRAM Reliability Under Design-Time and Run-Time Variability

CFET Beyond 3 nm: SRAM Reliability Under Design-Time and Run-Time Variability 150 150
Author(s): Sufia Shahin, Swati Deshwal, Anirban Kar, Mahdi Benkhelifa, Yogesh S. Chauhan, Hussam Amrouch

Abstract:

This work investigates the reliability of complementary field-effect transistors (CFETs) by addressing both design-time variability arising from process variations and run-time variability due to temperature and aging effects. A rigorously calibrated TCAD model, validated against experimental CFET data, is employed to quantify the impact of metal gate granularity (MGG)-induced …
