In this paper, we designed of low power system by using dynamic scaling. As an effective low-power design, dynamic voltage/frequency scaling recently has received a lot of attention. In dynamic frequency scheme, all execution cycles are driven by the clock frequency that switched frequency dynamically at run time. The algorithm schedules lower frequency operators at earlier steps and higher frequency operators to later steps. This algorithm assigned the frequency for each execution cycle then it adjusted the voltage associated with the frequency.

The measurement system of the pressure in engine cylinder is developed with the aids of the microcomputer, A/D converter and simple electrical circuits. The experiment is performed in 4 cycle single cylinder Gasoline engine. When data for the pressure progress is sampled, clock signal or signal from the crank angle is used as trigger. The variation of the pressure during the cycles can be well obtained experimentally. So, the informations which are necessary in the combustion analysis, i.e. expansion pressure, indicated mean effective pressure, the magnitude and time of the maximum pressure ignition time, the rate of pressure rise and heat release and combustion rates can be obtained by the calculation using experimental data. Also, the informations about the after-burning process, the existence of the detonation waves and end time of combustion can be investigated from this study.

Multiplication in Galois Field GF(2/sup m/) is a primary operation for many applications, particularly for public key cryptography such as Diffie-Hellman key exchange, ElGamal. The current paper presents a new architecture that can process Montgomery multiplication over GF(2/sup m/) in m clock cycles based on cellular automata. It is possible to implement the modular exponentiation, division, inversion /sup 1)/architecture, etc. efficiently based on the Montgomery multiplication proposed in this paper. Since cellular automata architecture is simple, regular, modular and cascadable, it can be utilized efficiently for the implementation of VLSI.

Elliptic curve cryptography is a relatively lightweight public-key cryptography method for key generation and digital signature verification. Some lightweight curves (eg, Curve25519 and Curve Ed448) have been adopted by upcoming Transport Layer Security 1.3 (TLS 1.3) to replace the standardized NIST curves. However, the efficient implementation of Curve Ed448 on Internet of Things (IoT) devices remains underexplored. This study is focused on the optimization of the Curve Ed448 implementation on low-end IoT processors (ie, 8-bit AVR and 16-bit MSP processors). In particular, the three-level and two-level subtractive Karatsuba algorithms are adopted for multi-precision multiplication on AVR and MSP processors, respectively, and two-level Karatsuba routines are employed for multi-precision squaring. For modular reduction and finite field inversion, fast reduction and Fermat-based inversion operations are used to mitigate side-channel vulnerabilities. The scalar multiplication operation using the Montgomery ladder algorithm requires only 103 and 73 M clock cycles on AVR and MSP processors.

An on-chip debugging unit is proposed aiming performance enhancement of JTAG-based SoC systems. The proposed unit comprises a JTAG module and a core breaker. The IEEE 1149.1 standard has been modified and applied to the new JTAG module. The proposed unit eliminates redundant clock cycles included in the TAP command execution stage reducing overall debugging time. TAP execution commands are repeatedly issued to perform debugging of complicated SoC systems. Simulation on the proposed unit shows some $14\%$ performance enhancement and $50\%$ gate count reduction compared to the conventional ones.

In this paper, a VLSI architecture for transform and quantization module, which consists of 2D-DCT, quantization, AC/DC prediction block, scan conversion, inverse quantization and 2D-IDCT, is presented. The architecture of the module is designed to handle a macroblock data within 1064 cycles and suitable for MPEG-4 video codec handling CIF image formats. Only single 1-D DCT/IDCT cores are used for the design instead of 2-D DCT/IDCT, respectively. 1-bit serial distributed arithmetic architecture is adopted for 1-D DCT/IDCT to reduce the hardware area in this architecture. As the result, the maximum utilization of hardware can be achieved, and power consumption can be minimized. The proposed design is operated on 27MHz clock. The experimental results show that the accuracy of DCT and IDCT meet the IEEE specification.

Successive approximation A/D converters have an advantage of small chip area and simple algorithm. We propose an improved non-redundant successive approximation register (SAR) which can be incorporated in successive approximation A/D converters. The proposed SAR validates the preset state as the $1^{st}$ reference voltage to the comparator. Two redundant clock cycles in the typical design could be eliminated in the proposed A/D converter.

An inter-pin skew compensation scheme is proposed, which minimizes the inter-pin skew of parallel interface induced by unequal trace length and loading of printed circuit board (PCB). The proposed scheme measures the inter-pin skew and compensates during power-up with simple hardware. The proposed scheme is applied to 3.2-Gb/s/pin DDR4 SDRAM and implemented in a 0.18 m CMOS process. The inter-pin skew is compensated in 324-cycles of 400-MHz clock and the skew is compensated to be less than 24-ps.

Recently, one of the most vital advancement in the field of finance is high-performance trading using field-programmable gate array (FPGA). The objective of this paper is to design high-performance Black Scholes option trading system on an FPGA. We implemented an efficient Black Scholes Call Option System IP on an FPGA. The IP may perform 180 million transactions per second after initial latency of 208 clock cycles. The implementation requires the 64-bit IEEE double-precision floatingpoint adder, multiplier, exponent, logarithm, division, and square root IPs. Our experimental results show that the design is highly efficient in terms of frequency and resource utilization, with the maximum frequency of 179 MHz on Altera Stratix V.
