  • Radiation effects in III-V heterojunction bipolar transistors

    Creator:
    Vuppala, Soujanya
    Abstract:
    Electron and neutron irradiation effects in InGaP/GaAs single heterojunction bipolar transistors are investigated in this thesis. Devices with different emitter sizes and grown by two different growth techniques were examined. Based on the physics of heterojunction bipolar transistors and concepts of radiation damage mechanisms, the irradiation effects were analyzed. The...

  • Radiation effects in III-V compound semiconductor heterostructure devices

    Creator:
    Li, ChyiShiun
    Abstract:
    The radiation effects in III-V heterojunction devices are investigated in this thesis. Two types of heterojunction devices studied are InGaP/GaAs single heterojunction bipolar transistors (SHBTs) and GaN-based heterojunction light emitting diodes (LEDs). InGaP/GaAS HBTs are investigated for high energy (67 and 105 MeV) proton irradiation effects while GaN heterojunction LEDs...

  • Time domain electromagnetic simulation of VLSI interconnects

    Creator:
    Falconer, Maynard C.
    Abstract:
    Current trends in integrated circuit technology are continuing towards physically smaller components and related structures. Interconnects between circuit components have reached sub-micron dimensions which can not be modeled accurately by the current ideal microstrip analysis based techniques. These techniques often assume that the structure being modeled is perfectly conducting, smooth,...

  • PRONTO : a product term reduction approach

    Creator:
    Martinez-Carballido, Jorge Francisco
    Abstract:
    Regular structures such as PLA's are very important to reduce VLSI design time. Interest in CAD tools such as a practical reducing PLA generator is high. This dissertation presents PRONTO as a practical, near-optimal product term reduction method, whose general heuristic approach consists of the following four steps. First, select...

  • Designing a high level microprogramming language

    Creator:
    Malik, Kamran
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this research is to design a high level language (HLL) suitable for microprogramming. A top down design technique has been adopted which makes the language design process simple and accurate. The primitive operations of a high level language for producing emulators is shown to include special purpose...

  • Acceleration of a heuristic PLA product term reduction program through complementation of the PLA specification

    Creator:
    Gilbert, John D.
    Abstract:
    Minimizing the number of product terms in a PLA implementation is a large step towards saving area on a VLSI chip using PLA logic. Due to the large amounts of computer time necessary to achieve this minimization, a number of heuristic approaches have been developed to provide near-optimal solutions in...

  • An approach for selecting a language for computer hardware description and simulation

    Creator:
    Milden, Mark R.
    Abstract:
    This paper corrects an apparent deficiency in the published information concerning Hardware Description Languages (HDLs) by introducing and discussing an approach for selecting an HDL for use in a design project. Although three classes of HDLs are discussed in this paper, High-Level Languages (HLLs), General Purpose Simulation Languages (GPSLs) and...

  • Action Selection for Heterologous Control of a Continuous-Output Myoelectric Prosthesis

    Creator:
    Sylwester, Sean T.
    Abstract:
    Significance: Movement intent decoding algorithms can interpret human bioelectrical signals to control prosthetic limbs with many degrees of freedom (DOFs). This work involves decoding volitional movement intent from surface electromyogram (sEMG) signals to control prosthetic arms. To train these algorithms, patients flex their muscles to “follow” a movement prompt, and...

  • Substrate noise coupling analysis in 0.18um silicon germanium (SiGe) and silicon on insulator (SOI) processes

    Creator:
    Pham, Hui En
    Abstract:
    Analysis of substrate noise coupling has been performed for a 0.18¹m lightly doped silicon germanium BiCMOS process. Techniques to minimize noise coupling in the chip and board design are presented, as well as methods for accurate modeling for substrate noise coupling simulations. Measurements from a test chip were taken to...
