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.

CAN (controller area network) suffers from data bottleneck since the number of in-vehicle electronic modules significantly increases. To mitigate this problem, CAN-FD (CAN with flexible data rate) has been proposed. Transmission speed is same with CAN in arbitration phase but much higher than CAN in data phase, which successfully achieves both compatibility and efficiency. In this paper, a CAN-FD controller was designed in Verilog HDL and it was implemented and verified in FPGA. The designed controller can perform CAN-FD version 1.0 and CAN version 2.0A, 2.0B. Synthesized in 0.18um technology, its size is about 46,300 gates.

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 the fast data communication system, synchronized by a clock source, the loss of data will often occur due to several reasons as a differential routing path between data and clock, a differential propagation delay of components or an unstable phase of clock and data by external noise. In this paper, we describe the ASIC implementation of the data compensation circuit which can detect the data loss from above problems and recovery to original data with stable synchronization. Especially it supports a strong stability and a good BER in the communication system for fast data transfer as optic area. This circuit is implemented by Verilog HDL and available to the digital ASIC implementations related to fast data transfer.

In this paper, a low-power 32-point IMDCT structure is proposed for MP3. Through re-odering of IMDCT matrices, we propose the systolic structure operating with 16, 8, 4, 2, and 1 cycle, respectively. To reduce power consumption, multiplication of each sub blocks are implemented by add and shift operation with CSD(Canrmic sigled digit) form coefficients. To reduce, furthermore, the number of adders, we utilize the common sub-expression sharing techniques. With these techniques, the relative power consumption of the proposed structure is reduced by 58.4% comparison to the conventional structure using only 2's complement form coefficient. Validity of the proposed structure is proved through Verilog-HDL coding.

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.
