  • In this paper, we propose a new Verilog-A current-voltage model for multi-level-cell PCRAMs. This model can describe the PCRAM operation not only in full SET and RESET states but also in the partial resistance states. And, 3 PCRAM operating regions of SET-RESET, Negative Differential Resistance, and strong-ON are unified into one equation in this model thereby any discontinuity that may introduce a convergence problem cannot be found in the new PCRAM model. The percentage error between the measured data and this model is as small as 7.4% on average compared to 60.1% of the previous piecewise model. The parameter extraction which is embedded in the Verilog-A code can be done automatically.

  • In the current very deep submicron technology era, fault tolerant mechanisms perform an essential function to cope with the effects of soft errors. To evaluate the effectiveness of the fault tolerant mechanism, reliability engineers use simulated fault injections using either saboteur modules or mutants in the simulation model. However, the two methods suffer from both inefficiency in the simulation mechanism and difficulties with the experimental setups. To overcome these inefficiencies, we propose the Verilog-based simulated fault injection (VFI) technique. VFI has the following advantages. First, modification of the design model is unnecessary. Second, the fault injection simulation procedure is simple and efficient. Third, various types of fault injection experiments can be performed. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology, we developed a VFI environment using the ICARUS Verilog Simulator. From the experimental results, we were able to qualitatively evaluate the reliability of the target simulation models and to assess the effectiveness of the employed fault-tolerance mechanisms.

  • In order to reuse a register transfer level (RTL)-based IP block, it takes another architectural exploration in which the RTL will be put, and it also takes virtual platforms to develop the driver and applications software. Due to the increasing demands of new technology, the hardware and software complexity of organizing embedded systems is growing rapidly. Accordingly, the traditional design methodology cannot stand up forever to designing complex devices. In this paper, I introduce an electronic system level (ESL)-based approach to designing complex hardware with a derivative of SystemVerilog. I adopted the concept of reuse with higher levels of abstraction of the ESL language than traditional HDLs to design multiplication server farms. Using the concept of ESL, I successfully implemented server farms as well as a test bench in one simulation environment. It would have cost a number of Verilog/C simulations if I had followed the traditional way, which would have required much more time and effort.

  • This paper reports the RFC(Recursive Flow Classification) algorithm that is available on multiple fields. It is easy to be implemented by both software and hardware. For high speed classification of packets, the implementation of RFC is essential by hardware. Hence, in this paper, RFC algorithm is simulated by Verilog-HDL, and it verify the efficiency of the algorithm. The result shows that the algorithm can perform a packet classification within several cycles. It is not only much faster than software implementation but also enough to support OC192c.

  • Although the compact capacitance model of point tunneling types of tunneling field-effect transistors (TFET) has been proposed, those of line tunneling types of TFETs have not been reported. In this study, a compact capacitance model of an L-shaped TFET (LTFET), a line tunneling type of TFET, is proposed using the previously developed surface potentials and current models of P- and L-type LTFETs. The Verilog-A LTFET model for simulation program with integrated circuit emphasis (SPICE) was also developed to verify the validation of the compact LTFET model including the capacitance model. The SPICE simulation results using the Verilog-A LTFET were compared to those obtained using a technology computer-aided-design (TCAD) device simulator. The current-voltage characteristics and capacitance-voltage characteristics of N and P-LTFETs were consistent for all operational bias. The voltage transfer characteristics and transient response of the inverter circuit comprising N and P-LTFETs in series were verified with the TCAD mixed-mode simulation results.

  • In this study, a physical OLED analog behavior model for SPICE simulation was described using the Verilog-A language. The model was presented through theoretical equations for the J-V characteristics of OLED derived according to the internalcarrier emission equation based on a diffusion model at the Schottky barrier contact, and the mobility equation based on the Pool-Frenkel model. The accuracy of this model was examined by comparing it with the results of the device simulation that was conducted.
