  • Processing sequences of chromatophore images with application to a signal transduction pathway modeling

    Creator:
    Orhanovic, Iva
    Abstract:
    Systems biology is becoming increasingly important for the study of living organisms. It focuses on the mathematical understanding of biological systems. Cells, the basic units of all living creatures, are biological systems of major interest. Considerable work is being done towards modeling cells as mathematical systems. At the same time,...

  • Methods to improve the reliability and resiliency of near/sub-threshold digital circuits

    Creator:
    Crop, Joseph A.
    Abstract:
    Energy consumption is one of the primary bottlenecks to both large and small scale modern compute platforms. Reducing the operating voltage of digital circuits to voltages where the supply voltage is near or below the threshold of the transistors has recently gained attention as a method to reduce the energy...

  • A comparative study between sinusoidal and squarewave clocking for alleviating the jitter limitation in multi-gigaHertz ADCs

    Creator:
    Kesharwani, Divya
    Abstract:
    Various applications like wireless UWB communication, fast data acquisition systems and digital storage oscilloscopes needs ADCs with instantaneous input signal bandwidth from 0.1-40 GigaHertz range with 6-10 bits of resolution -- a challenging task and an impressive goal to achieve. Flash ADCs have been conventionally employed to achieve these goals...

  • Next generation analog-to-digital conversion using time-based encoding and digital synthesis techniques

    Creator:
    Muhlestein, Jason, Russell
    Abstract:
    The internet-of-things is a growing market segment which is based on an arrayof portable communication devices with high power efficiency. Advanced semiconductortechnology can easily improve their digital performance, but the samecannot be said for the analog blocks which are vital to their operation. Highperformance analog circuits continue to use conventional...

  • Design techniques for clocking high performance signaling systems

    Creator:
    Hanumolu, Pavan Kumar
    Abstract:
    Scaling of CMOS technology has progressed relentlessly for the past several decades. In order for this unprecedented scaling to benefit the performance of large digital systems, the communication bandwidth between integrated circuits (ICs) must scale accordingly. However, interconnect technology does not scale as aggressively, making communication between chips the major...

  • Equivalent circuit modeling of on-chip magnetic devices based on terminal measurements

    Creator:
    Gaskill, Steven G.
    Abstract:
    The addition of thin-film alloy magnetic materials to integrated circuit processing enables a number of novel monolithic circuits. Examples include fully integrated magnetic field sensors, signal and power galvanic isolation circuits, and power supplies on chip (PwrSoC). There are several benefits to integrating these traditionally off-chip devices, including improved manufacturability,...

  • Time-based noise-shaping techniques for time-to-digital and analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Young, Brian LeRoy
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, time-based signal processing techniques and their applications in oversampling and noise-shaping data converters are examined. These techniques demonstrate the ability to shift the burden of high performance analog circuits from the compressed voltage-domain to the augmented time-domain. First, the potential of high order noise-shaping and phase-domain feedback...

  • A digital multiplying delay locked loop for high frequency clock generation

    Creator:
    Uttarwar, Tushar
    Abstract:
    As Moore’s Law continues to give rise to ever shrinking channel lengths, circuits are becoming more digital and ever increasingly faster. Generating high frequency clocks in such scaled processes is becoming a tough challenge. Digital phase locked loops (DPLLs) are being explored as an alternative to conventional analog PLLs but...

  • Highly digital power efficient techniques for serial links

    Creator:
    Inti, Rajesh
    Abstract:
    Low power, high speed serial transceivers are employed in a wide range of applications ranging from chip-to-chip, backplane, and optical interconnects. Apart from being capable of handling a wide range of data rates, the transceivers should have low power consumption (mW/Gbps) and be fully integrated. This work discusses enabling techniques...
