Enhanced Visual Navigation for Mobile Robots
(2014-05-02)
Navigation solely by vision has been a goal in robotics for many years. It is desirable for a robot to plan and navigate the same way we do naturally as humans; however computation speed, changing illumination, complex ...
Design of Low-Voltage Broadband Folded Blixer for SDR Application
(2013-11-11)
Recent years, a large number of researches have been made on the software-defined radio (SDR) architectures. SDR is radio communication systems where typical functions have been implemented in hardware (e.g. mixers, filters, ...
Synthesis of Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) as Thermal Interface Material
(2013-11-08)
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are promising materials for many potential applications. High
electrical conductivity, superior mechanical strength, thermal conductivity, and chemical
inertness are some of the properties of CNTs. ...
Advancements and Implementation of Polynomial-Based Learning Machines for Data Processing and System Modeling
(2014-04-23)
At the present time, the need in all disciplines for efficient and powerful algorithms for the handling of large and complex datasets is certainly at its highest. Extremely large multi-dimensional datasets are commonplace ...
Reducing ATE Test Time by Voltage and Frequency Scaling
(2014-03-20)
During wafer sort, the fabricated chips are subjected to tests that verify if they meet the design specification. Test application time plays a critical role while verifying large volume of dice in a given period of time. ...
AlGaN/GaN HEMT DC Simulation
(2014-04-28)
Increasing demand in high power and high frequency semiconductor devices has promoted
the rapid development of microwave power devices using GaN and SiC. Characteristics
like high breakdown voltage and high electron ...
Path Delay Tuning for Performance Gain in the face of Random Manufacturing Variations
(2011-04-18)
Moore's laws predictions of transistor densities doubling every two years in an integrated circuit has held true for the past fifty years, and is predicted to hold true in the coming few years. But as technologies shrink ...
Energy Efficiency and Process Variation Tolerance of 45 nm Bulk and High-k CMOS Devices
(2011-04-18)
With transistor sizes being reduced to sub 45nm ranges, we have seen an improvement in speed, better performance, and deeper integration of digital circuits. However, there has been a corresponding increase in power ...
Reactive Power Compensatioin Device Design with Utilization of an Integrated Circuit Controller
(2011-04-06)
Reactive power compensation is necessary to increase the efficiency of current and future global electrical infrastructure. There are many methods for the design and implementation of reactive power compensators. This ...
Physics, Compact Modeling and TCAD of SiGe HBT for Wide Temperature Range Operation
(2011-11-29)
One of the remarkable characteristics of SiGe HBT is the ability to operate over a wide temperature range, from as low as sub 1K, to as high as over 400 K. The SiGe HBT investigated and measured in this work is a ...
