High-level synthesis (HLS), which automatically synthesizes a register-transfer level (RTL) circuit from a behavioral description written in a high-level programming language such as C/C++, is becoming a more popular technique for improving design productivity. In general, HLS tools often generate a circuit with a larger area than those of hand-designed ones. One reason for this issue is that HLS tools often generate multiple instances of the same module from a function. To eliminate such a redundancy in circuit area in HLS, HLS tools are capable of sharing modules. Function-level module sharing at a behavioral description written in a high-level programming language may promote function reuse to increase effectiveness and reduce circuit area. In this paper, we present two HLS techniques for module sharing at the function level.

This research proposes a new type of flyback converter topology based on magnetic circuit sharing. The proposed flyback topology uses a transformer involving shared magnetic flux, and its characteristic is magnetic flux cancelation by cross magnetic flux in the magnetic flux-sharing part of the core. The new topology aims to reduce the volume of transformer by reducing the cross section of the core. Compared to conventional converters using only 1 transformer, its circuit configuration involving the serial input and parallel output of 2 flyback coils allowed increased converter insulation strength. In addition, the adoption of interleaved switching method achieved the improvement of output voltage ripple, while magnetic circuit sharing reduced by 50% the cross section of core where magnetic circuit was shared.

This paper designed a voltage feedback driving circuit to compensate for the characteristic deviation of the Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode driving Thin Film Transistor. This paper describes a stable and fast circuit by applying charge sharing and polar stabilization methods. A 12-inch Organic Light Emitting Diode with a Double Wide Ultra eXtended Graphics Array resolution creates a screen distortion problem for line parasitism, and charge sharing and polar stabilization structures were applied to solve the problem. By applying Charge Sharing, all data lines are shorted at the same time and quickly positioned as the average voltage to advance the compensated change time of the gate voltage in the next operation period. A buffer circuit and a current pass circuit were added to lower the Amplifier resistance connected to the line as a polar stabilization method. The advantage of suppressing the Ringing of the driving Thin Film Transistor can be obtained by increasing the stability. As a result, a circuit was designed to supply a stable current to the Organic Light Emitting Diode even if the characteristic deviation of the driving Thin Film Transistor occurs.

This paper presents a new architecture of unified IP/IT/IQ/MC circuit for H.264 decoder based on operation sharing and efficient scheduling. The resultant circuit based on the proposed architecture uses only 12 adders and 1 multiplier. We further reduced the circuit size by sharing buffers. Our circuit consists of 47,810 gates and operates at the maximum operating frequency of 117MHz with 130nm standard cells.

In this paper, a CMOS integrated detection circuit for capacitive type fingerprint sensor signal processing is described. We designed a detection circuit of charge-sharing sensing scheme. The proposed detection circuit increases the voltage difference between a ridge and valley. The test chip is composed of $160{\times}192$ array sensing cells (12 by $12.7{\;}mm^{2}$). The chip was fabricated on a 0.35 m standard CMOS process. Measured difference voltage between a ridge and valley was 0.95 V.

본 논문에서는 지문센서 칩에서 추출된 건조한 지문이미지의 질을 향상시키기 위한 전하분할 방식의 용량성 회로를 제안하고 있다. 건조지문에서 지문표면의 저항이 크므로 이미지의 질에 저하를 가져온다. 건조지문에서 양질의 이미지를 획득하기 위해 수정된 회로가 제안되어 있고 이 회로는 센서표면에서 전하를 제어하기 위한 부가적인 센서플레이트를 적용하고 있다. 제안된 회로는 0.35마이크론 표준 CMOS 공정에서 검증되었다.

We developed new circuit architecture for reducing the power consumption and chip-size of driver ICs. In this paper we describe a new drive scheme, based on the concept of time -sharing output and optimal circuit design based on color resolution. In case of 132 x 176-pixel class, we used only 8 O p-A mps for a 262-k color display.

본 논문에서는 반도체 방식의 직접 터치식 capacitive type 지문인식센서의 신호처리를 위한 회로를 제안하였다. 센서로부터의 capacitance의 변화를 전압의 신호로 전환하기 위해서 charge-sharing 방식의 회로를 적용하였다. 지문센서 감도저하의 가장 큰 원인인 sensor plate에 존재하는 parasitic capacitance를 제거하여 ridge와 valley 사이의 전압차를 향상시키기 위하여 기존과는 다른 아날로그 버퍼회로를 설계 적용하였다. 센서 하부회로와의 isolation 대책을 통하여 ESD 및 노이즈방지를 위한 설계를 실시하였다. 제안된 신호처리회로는 128$\times$144 pixel 규모의 회로로 구현되었다. 본 설계회로는 향후 생체인식을 이용한 정보보호용 지문인식 시스템에 응용될 수 있으리라 본다.
