A novel fully time-based two-step analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is proposed. Two time-
based ADCs (TB ADCs) are used for coarse ADC (CADC) and fine ADC (FADC), resulting in …

A clock distribution network (CDN) is a ubiquitous on-chip element that provides
synchronized clock signals to all different circuit blocks in the chip. To maximize the chip …

This paper presents a review of the recent digital low-dropout voltage regulators (DLDOs).
We have reviewed them in five aspects: control laws, triggering methods, power-FET circuit …

The Summit and Sierra Supercomputer Systems, deployed in 2018 at the Department of
Energy (DOE) National Laboratories, Oak Ridge (ORNL) and Lawrence Livermore (LLNL) …

With the Frontier supercomputer ranked first on the Top500 list, it marks the era of exascale
computing power for supercomputers, employing the compute nodes with double-precision …

The growing complexity of modern electronic systems often leads to the design of more
sophisticated power delivery networks (PDNs). Similar to other system-level shared …

Resilient circuits based on in situ timing monitoring adaptive voltage–frequency scaling
(AVFS) eliminate excess time margins caused by process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) …

For a network-on-chip (NoC) with multiple voltage/frequency domains, metastability hurts the
reliability during the clock-domain crossing, especially in the near-threshold-voltage (NTV) …

Dependable power measurements are the backbone of energy-efficient computing systems.
The IBM PowerNV platform offers such power measurements through an embedded …

Low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulators have become prominent elements of on-chip power
delivery systems due to the increasing importance of separate voltage domains, fast …
