  1. 1. Low-Power Multi-GHz Circuit Techniques for On-chip Clocking

    Author : Martin Hansson; Atila Alvandpour; Per Larsson-Edefors; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CMOS; low-power; high-performance; flip-flop; clocking; leakage-compensation; process-variation; Electronics; Elektronik;

    Abstract : The impressive evolution of modern high-performance microprocessors have resulted in chips with over one billion transistors as well as multi-GHz clock frequencies. As the silicon integrated circuit industry moves further into the nanometer regime, three of the main challenges to overcome in order for continuing CMOS technology scaling are; growing standby power dissipation, increasing variations in process parameters, and increasing power dissipation due to growing clock load and circuit complexity.

  2. 2. Reduction of Aerodynamic Forcing inTransonic Turbomachinery : Numerical Studies on Forcing Reduction Techniques

    Author : Florian Fruth; Torsten Fransson; Damian Vogt; Ronald Mailach; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Forced Response; Aerodynamic Forcing; Efficiency; Blade Count Ratio; Clocking;

    Abstract : Due to more and more aggressive designs in turbomachinery, assuring the structural integrity of its components has become challenging. Also influenced by this trend is blade design, where lighter and slimmer blades, in combination with higher loading, lead to an increased risk of failure, e.g. in the form of blade vibration.

  3. 3. Distributed Clocking and Clock Generation in Digital CMOS SoC ASICs

    Author : Thomas Olsson; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical engineering; Elektroteknik; dual supply voltage; clock generator; digital; VHDL; CMOS; low-power; Distributed clocking; PLL;

    Abstract : With shrinking technologies and higher clock rates comes the possibility to transform multi chip implementations to a single System on Chip (SoC). Implementing clock distribution and limiting the power consumption becomes increasingly troublesome with increased clock rate and chip area. READ MORE
