This paper describes the design and implementation of Serial ATA physical layer and performance measurement. It is composed of tranceiver circuit that has the NRZ data stream with +/-250㎷ voltage level and 1.5Gbps data rate, transmission PLL circuit, clock ＆ data recovery circuit, serializer/deserializer circuit and OOB(Out Of Band) generation/detection circuit. We implement the verification of the silicon chip with 0.18${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ Standard CMOS process. It can be seen that all of the blocks operate with no errors but the data transfer rate is limited to the 1.28Gbps even this should support 1.5Gbps data transfer rate.

In this paper. we developed a delay test architecture and test procedure for clocked 5-bit asynchronous counter circuit based on boundary scan architecture. To develope, we analyze the problems of conventional method on delay test for clocked sequential circuit in boundary scan architecture. This paper discusses several problems of delay test on boundary scan architecture for clocked sequential circuit. Conventional test method has some problems of improper capture timing, of same pattern insertion, of increase of test time. We suggest a delay test architecture and test procedure, is based on a clock count-generation technique to generate continuous clocks for clocked input of CUT. The simulation results or 5-bit counter shows the accurate operation and effectiveness of the proposed delay test architecture and procedure.

This paper presents a temperature analysis of the chaotic behavior in the voltage controlled CMOS chaotic circuit. The circuit is based on a simple nonlinear function block which is needed for chaotic signal generation. It consists of a NFB (nonlinear function block), a level shifter and non-overlapping two-phase clock for sample and hold. By SPICE simulation, chaotic dynamics such as frequency spectra and bifurcations according to the temperature variations were analyzed. And, it was showed that the circuit can generate discrete chaotic signals within control voltage in the range from 1.2 V to 2.3 V in a specific temperature condition of $25^{\circ}C$.

This paper describes a small-area hardware implementation of the block cipher algorithm CLEFIA-128 which supports for 128-bit master key. A compact structure using single data processing block is adopted, which shares hardware resources for round transformation and the generation of intermediate values for round key scheduling. In addition, data processing and key scheduling blocks are simplified by utilizing a modified GFN(generalized Feistel network) and key scheduling scheme. The CLEFIA-128 crypto-processor is verified by FPGA implementation. It consumes 823 slices of Virtex5 XC5VSX50T device and the estimated throughput is about 105 Mbps with 145 MHz clock frequency.

A controller area network (CAN) receiver measures differential voltage on a bus to determine the bus level. Since 3.3V transceivers generate the same differential voltage as 5V transceivers (usually ${\geq}1.5V$), all transceivers on the bus (regardless of supply voltage) can decipher the message. In fact, the other transceivers cannot even determine or show that there is anything different about the differential voltage levels. A new CMOS RC oscillator insensitive supply voltage for clock generation in a CAN transceiver was fabricated and tested to compensate for this drawback in CAN communication. The system consists of a symmetrical circuit for voltage and current switches, two capacitors, two comparators, and an RS flip-flop. The operational principle is similar to a bistable multivibrator but the oscillation frequency can also be controlled via a bias current and reference voltage. The chip test experimental results show that oscillation frequency and power dissipation are 500 kHz and 5.48 mW, respectively at a supply voltage of 3.3 V. The chip, chip area is $0.021mm^2$, is fabricated with $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS technology from SK hynix.

As the size of circuits becomes larger, the test method needs more test data volume and larger test application time. In order to reduce test data volume and test application time, a new test data compression/decompression method is proposed. The proposed method is based on an XOR network uses don't-care-bits to improve compression ratio during seed vectors generation. After seed vectors are produced seed vectors can be merged using two prefix codes. It only requires 1 clock time for reusing merged seed vectors, so test application time can be reduced tremendously. Experimental results on large ISCAS '89 benchmark circuits prove the efficiency of the proposed method.

In the previous work, we have proposed an integrate-and-fire neuron circuit and synaptic device based on the floating body MOSFET [1-3]. Integrate-and-Fire(I&F) neuron circuit emulates the biological neuron characteristics such as integration, threshold triggering, output generation, refractory period using floating body MOSFET. The synaptic device has short-term and long-term memory in a single silicon device. In this paper, we connect the neuron circuit and the synaptic device using current mirror circuit for summation of post synaptic pulses. We emulate spike-timing-dependent-plasticity (STDP) characteristics of the synapse using feedback voltage without controller or clock. Using memory device in the logic circuit, we can emulate biological synapse and neuron with a small number of devices.

A new algorithm and parallel architecture for high-speed complex number multiplication is presented, and a prototype chip based on the proposed approach is designed. By employing redundant binary (RB) arithmetic, an N-bit complex number multiplication is simplified to two RB multiplications (i.e., an addition of N RB partial products), which are responsible for real and imaginary parts, respectively. Also, and efficient RB encoding scheme proposed in this paper enables to generate RB partial products without additional hardware and delay overheads compared with binary partial product generation. The proposed approach leads to a highly parallel architecture with regularity and modularity. As a results, it results in much simpler realization and higher performance than the classical method based on real multipliers and adders. As a test vehicle, a prototype 8-b complex number multiplier core has been fabricated using $0.8\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS technology. It contains 11,500 transistors on the area of about $1.05 \times 1.34 textrm{mm}^2$. The functional and speed test results show that it can safely operate with 200 MHz clock at $V_{DD}=2.5 V$, and consumes about 90mW.

This paper describes a new programmable DLL_based frequency synthesizer. Generally, PLLs have been used for frequency synthesis. Inherent fast locking DLLs are also used for frequency synthesis. However, DLL needs a frequency multiplier for various frequencies. A conventional frequency multiplier used in DLL has a restriction in which a multiple is fixed. However, the proposed DLL can generate clocks which are from 6 times to 10 times of the reference clock. Frequency range of the proposed DLL is from 600MHz to 1GHz. The idea has been confirmed by HSPICE simulations in a $0.35-\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS process.

ILS(Instrument Landing System) is the international standard system for approach and landing guidance. ILS was adopted by ICAO(International Civil Aviation Organization) in 1947 and is currently being used in commercial systems. To design the digital transmitter and receiver modules that can be mounted in the integrated ILS, we propose the digital design methods of digital double AM modulator and demodulator using FPGA chip, DDS(Direct Digital Synthesizer) for generation of sampling clock, demodulator of DDC(Digital Down Converter) structure, and spectrum analyzer using DSP chip. We demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed design method through experiments using developed transmitter and receiver modules. This system can be used as a high-performance commercial system.
