  • An ultra low power frequency reference for timekeeping applications

    Creator:
    Oporta, Hector Ivan
    Abstract:
    An ultra low power crystal oscillator that provides a frequency reference for battery powered timekeeping applications is presented. An amplitude control circuit is employed to ensure that minimum current is consumed. A subthreshold voltage regulator provides a supply voltage for the oscillator with minimum current consumption. The oscillator and regulator...

  • An enhanced swing differential Colpitts CMOS VCO for low-voltage operation

    Creator:
    Farahbakhshian, Farhad
    Abstract:
    An enhanced swing differential Colpitts VCO (ESDC-VCO) dramatically improves the swing of a Colpitts VCO by allowing the signal to swing below ground and above the supply voltage. Fabricated in a 1P8M 0.13 um CMOS process, the ESDC-VCO operates at 4.9GHz with a 0.475-V supply and consumes 2.7mW. The measured...

  • Network Traffic-Driven Hybrid Learning for Classifying Seen and Unseen IoT Device Types

    Creator:
    Bao, Jiaqi
    Abstract:
    IoT networks can be viewed as collections of Internet-enabled physical devices and objects, embedded with sensor, actuator, computation, storage and communication components, that are capable of connecting and exchanging data to one another. In recent years, organizations have allowed more and more IoT devices to be connected to their networks,...

  • Modeling and simulation methods for RF MEMS VCOs

    Creator:
    Sankaranarayanan, Janakiram Ganesh
    Abstract:
    This work focusses on the modeling and the development of efficient coupled simulation techniques for MEMS based RF oscillators. High-level models for MEMS based varactors have been discussed and their accuracy issues are identified, based on comparisons with numerical simulations. A faster simulation approach based on the time-domain shooting method...

  • Design techniques for low-voltage and low-power analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Ahn, Gil Cho
    Abstract:
    With the ever-increasing demand for portable devices used in applications such as wireless communication, mobile computing, consumer electronics, etc., the scaling of the CMOS process to deep submicron dimensions becomes more important to achieve low-cost, low-power and high-performance digital systems. However, this downscaling also requires similar shrinking of the supply...

  • Flexible dual TCP/UDP streaming for H.264 HD video over WLANs

    Creator:
    Zhao, Jing
    Abstract:
    High Definition video streaming over WLANs faces many challenges because video data requires not only data integrity but also frames have strict playout deadline. Traditional streaming methods that rely solely on either UDP or TCP have difficulties meeting both requirements because UDP incurs packet loss while TCP incurs delay. This...

  • Novel power conditioning circuits for piezoelectric micro power generators

    Creator:
    Han, Jifeng
    Abstract:
    Advanced low power devices promote the development of micro power generators (MPGs) to replace the batteries to power them. Due to the trend in decreasing integrated circuit (IC) supply voltages, power supply designers are facing more and more serious challenges. The objective of this research is to design a power...

  • Analysis and modeling of coplanar on-chip interconnects on silicon substrates

    Creator:
    Luoh, Yi
    Abstract:
    The electrical behavior of on-chip interconnects has become a dominant factor in silicon-based high speed, RF, and mixed-signal integrated circuits. In particular, the frequency-dependent loss mechanisms in heavily-doped silicon substrates can have a large influence on the transmission characteristics of on-chip interconnects. To optimize the performance of the integrated circuit,...

  • One-to-many node disjoint paths routing in generalized hypercube, dense Gaussian, and hexagonal mesh networks

    Creator:
    Alsaleh, Omar I.
    Abstract:
    Routing from a single source node to multiple destination nodes using node disjoint paths (NDP) has many important applications in parallel systems. For example, if a source node wants to send distinct messages to distinct destination nodes, then the one-to-many NDP routing is useful. Unlike parallel systems with shared-memory, each...

  • Via-only microwave/millimeter wave bandpass filters for LTCC applications

    Creator:
    Bhargava, Gaurav
    Abstract:
    With an increasing number of wireless applications at microwave frequencies, the frequency spectrum is becoming quite crowded. Due to this congestion, the current state of technology is leading towards upper microwave and millimeter wave spectra as they also offer other distinct advantages such as larger bandwidth and smaller component footprint....
