This paper presents new DSP (Digital Signal Processor) instructions and their hardware architecture for high-speed FFT. the instructions perform new operation flows, which are different from the MAC (Multiply and Accumulate) operation on which existing DSP chips heavily depend. The proposed DPU (Data Processing Unit) supporting the instructions shows two times faster than existing DSP chips for FFT. The architecture has been modeled by the Verilog HDL and logic synthesis has been performed using the 0.35 ${\mu}m$ standard cell library. The maximum operating clock frequency is about 144.5 MHz.

In this paper, an IEEE 802.15.4 LR-WPAN 868/915 MHz ZigBee transceiver for IoT systems was designed and implemented. Non-coherent demodulation was exploited to satisfy ${\pm}80ppm$ frequency offset recommended in IEEE 802.15.4 LR-WPAN. Variable bitrate was supported according to operation modes. SPI module was embedded to connect various MCUs. The designed Zigbee transceiver was described in Verilog HDL and it was synthesized and verified in $0.18{\mu}m$ process. Its gate count was about 32,000 gates.

CABAC is a context-based adaptive binary arithmetic coding method. It increases the encoding efficiency by updating the probability based on the information of the previously coded symbols. Context modeler is a core block of CABAC, which designs a probability model according to the symbol considering statistical correlations. In this paper, an efficient hardware architecture of CABAC context modeler is proposed. The proposed context modeler was designed in Verilog HDL and it was implemented in 0.18 um technology. Its gate count is 29,832 gates including memory. Its operating speed and throughput are 200 MHz and 200 Mbin/s, respectively.

HEVC CABAC encoder performs binary arithmetic encoding after syntax elements are converted into binary values. Therefore, in HEVC CABAC decoder, binarized syntax elements from binary arithmetic decoder should be de-binarized into original syntax elements in the de-binarizer. In this paper, a HEVC CABAC de-binarizer architecture was proposed and implemented. It consists of a controller that analyzes and merges binarized syntax elements and an engine that converts merged binarized syntax elements into original syntax elements. The designed de-binarizer was described in Verilog HDL and it was synthesized and verified in 0.18um process technology. Its gate count and maximum operating frequency are 3,114 gates and 220 MHz, respectively.

A data manipulation unit capable of bit partitioned shift and various multimedia data type conversions in addition to conventional shift, is presented. Utilizing the similarity between the data type conversion and the shift, the addition of small amount of interconnections to conventional barrel shifter enables data type conversion as well as shift operations with minimal hardware overhead. The presented data manipulation unit is composed of the shifter block for conventional shift and a pack and a unpack block. It has been designed with verilog HDL and the VLSI implementation results using compass 0.6 um standard cell are discussed.

In this paper, we present an optimized design of RS(23,17) decoder for UWB, which uses the pipeline structured-modified Euclidean(PS-ME) algorithm. Firstly, the modified processing element(PE) block is presented in order to get rid of degree comparison circuits, registers and MUX at the final PE stage. Also, a degree computationless decoding algorithm is proposed, so that the hardware complexity of the decoder can be reduced and high-speed decoder can be implemented. Additionally, we optimize Chien search algorithm, Forney algorithm, and FIFO size for UWB specification. Using Verilog HDL, the proposed decoder is implemented and synthesized with Samsung 65nm library. From synthesis results, it can operate at clock frequency of 250MHz, and gate count is 17,628.

In this paper we provide a unified crypto core that integrates lightweight symmetric cryptography and authentication. The crypto core implements a unified 128 bit key architecture of PRESENT encryption algorithm and a new lightweight encryption algorithm. The crypto core also consist of an authentication unit which neglects the use of hashing algorithms. Four algorithms are used for authentication which come from the Hopper-Blum (HB) and Hopper-Blum-Munilla-Penado (HB-MP) family of lightweight authentication algorithms: HB, HB+, HB-MP and HB-MP+. A unified architecture of these algorithms is implemented in this paper. The unified cryptosystem is designed using Verilog HDL, simulated with Modelsim SE and synthesized with Xilinx Design Suite 14.3. The crypto core synthesized to 1130 slices at 189Mhz frequency on Spartan6 FPGA device.

This paper introduces and analyzes SAE J2716 SENT (Single Edge Nibble Transmission) protocol, a technical standard for serial transmission of digital sensor data in automotive applications. SENT can transmit both high-speed sensor data and low-speed sensor data in one data frame and has a total of 6 transmission modes, including 3 high-speed channel modes and 3 low-speed channel modes. In this paper, a SENT controller that supports all six modes of the SENT protocol was designed in Verilog HDL, implemented in FPGA, and verified with an oscilloscope and PC.

CNNs tend to take a long time to learn and consume a lot of power due to lack of system resources with many data processing units when there are repetitive handles that do not have high performance in the image field. In this paper, we propose a handling method based on a low-power bus that can increase the exchange rate of multipliers and multiplicands within the convolution mixer, which is a tendency activity that occurs when a convolution mixer has multiplication, which is the core element of combination. Convolutional neural networks have proprietary low-power shared processor support and the design was implemented on an Intel DE1-SoC FPGA board using Verilog-HDL. The experiments validated the performance by comparing it with the exchange rate of the multiplier originally proposed by Shen on MNIST's numeric image database.
