In this paper, the pipelined A/D converter with multi S/H stage structure is proposed for high resolution and high-speed data conversion rate. In order to improve a resolution and operational speed, the proposed structure increased the sampling time that is sampled input signal. In order to verify the operation characteristics, 20MS/s pipelined A/D converter is designed with two S/H stage. The simulation result shows that INL and DNL are $0.52LSB\~-0.63LSB$ and $0.53LSB\~-0.56LSB$, respectively. Also, the designed Analog-to-Digital converter has the SNR of 43dB and power consumption is 18.5mW.

Efficient hardware implementation of address lookup is one of the most important design issues of internet routers. Address lookup significantly impacts router performance since routers need to process tens-to-hundred millions of packets per second in real time. In this paper, we propose a practical IP address lookup structure based on the binary tree of prefixes of different lengths. The proposed structure produces multiple balanced trees, and hence it solve the issues due to the unbalanced binary prefix tree of the existing scheme. The proposed structure is implemented using pipelined binary search combined with a small size TCAM. Performance evaluation results show that the proposed architecture requires a 2000-entry TCAM and total 245 kbyte SRAMs to store about 30,000 prefix samples from MAE-WEST router, and an address lookup is achieved by a single memory access. The proposed scheme scales very well with both of large databases and longer addresses as in IPv6.

In this paper, Pipelined A/D converter with multi SHA structure is proposed for high speed operation. The proposed structure incorporates a multi SHA block that consists of multiple SHAs of identical characteristics in parallel to improve the conversion speed. The designed multi SHA is operated by non-overlapping clocks and the sampling speed can be improved by increasing the number of multiplexed SHAs. Pipelined A/D converter, applying the proposed structure, is designed to satisfy requirement of analog front-end of VDSL modem. The measured INL and DNL of designed A/D converter are $0.52LSB{\sim}-0.50LSB\;and\;0.80LSB{\sim}-0.76LSB$, respectively. It satisfies the design specifications for VDSL modems. The simulated SNR is about 66dB which corresponds to a 10.7 bit resolution. The power consumption is 24.32mW.

In this paper, the AMBA AXI slave unit that can verify the pipelined arithmetic unit is proposed and the 2-stage 16-bit pipelined multiplier is introduced as design example. The proposed AXI slave unit consists of input buffer block memory, control registers, pipelined arithmetic unit, control unit, output buffer block memory, and AXI slave interface unit. The main operational procedures are divided into the following steps, such as burst-mode input data loading for the input buffer memory, programming of control registers, arithmetic operations for block data in the input buffer memory, and burst-mode output data unloading from output buffer memory to host processor. Because the proposed AXI slave unit is general structure, it can be efficiently applicable to AMBA AXI and AHB slave unit with pipelined arithmetic unit.

A 9-bit 80-MS/s CMOS pipelined folding analog-to-digital converter employing offset-canceled preamplifiers and a subranging scheme is proposed to extend the resolution of a folding architecture. A fully differential dc-decoupled structure achieves high linearity in circuit design. The measured differential nonlinearity and integral nonlinearity of the prototype are ${\pm}0.6$ LSB and ${\pm}1.6$ LSB, respectively.

A novel clock distribution technique for pipelined-RSFQ logics using variable Bias Currents of JTLs as delay-medium is newly proposed. RSFQ logics consist of several logic gates or blocks connected in a pipeline structure. And each block has variable delay difference. In the structure, this clock distribution method generates a set of clock signals for each logic blocks with suitable corresponding delays. These delays, in the order of few to tens of pS, can be adjusted through controlling bias current of JTL of delay medium. While delays with resistor value and JJ size are fixed at fabrication stage, delay through bias current can be controlled externally, and thus, is heavily investigated for its range as well as correct operation within current margin. Possible ways of a standard delay library with modular structure are sought for further modularizing Pipelined-RSFQ applications. Simulations and verifications are done through WRSpice with Hypres 3-um process parameters.

This paper presents a floating point arithmetic unit (FPAU) for supescalar microprocessor that executes fifteen operations such as addition, subtraction, data format converting, and compare operation using two pipelined arithmetic paths and new rounding and normalization scheme. By using two pipelined arithmetic paths, each aritchmetic operation can be assigned into appropriate arithmetic path which high speed operation is possible. The proposed normalization an rouding scheme enables the FPAU to execute roundig operation in parallel with normalization and to reduce timing delay of post-normalization. And by predicting leading one position of results using input operands, leading one detection(LOD) operation to normalize results in the conventional arithmetic unit can be eliminated. Because the FPAU can execuate fifteen single-precision or double-precision floating-point arithmetic operations through three-stage pipelined datapath and support IEEE standard 754, it has appropriate structure which can be ingegrated into superscalar microprocessor.

In order to reduce blocking artifacts and improve compression efficiency, H.264/AVC standard employs an adaptive in-loop deblocking filter. This paper proposes a new hardware architecture of the deblocking filter that employs a four-stage pipelined structure with an efficient data distribution. The proposed architecture allows a simultaneous supply of eight data samples to fully utilize the pipelined filter in both horizontal and vertical filterings. This paper also presents a new filtering order and data reuse scheme between consecutive macroblock filterings to reduce the communication for external memory access. The number of required cycles for filtering one macroblock (MB) is 357 cycles when the proposed filter uses dual port SRAMs. This execution speed is only 41.3% of that of the fastest previous work.
