Sponsored by: Texas Instruments Clock stability is more crucial than ever in high-speed timing circuits—and low-noise oscillators and phase-locked loops play key roles in achieving ...

Abstact As digital systems migrate towards increased integration with higher speeds for complicated signal processing capabilities, timing design has become critical for robust system performance, ...

In this article, we first propose a step-by-step definition of dynamic circuit’s timing parameters required in its timing characterization. We then propose a single ring-oscillator-based test ...

Dynamic circuit is extensively used where high speed is required such as critical paths in digital and analog/mixed-signal circuits, yet it has not been successfully characterized and integrated into ...

This paper presents a technique that allows to preserve structure of a circuit according to a target technology during fault emulation in FPGA. The technique is not restricted to any target technology ...
