      How much margin do we have to add to the delay lines of a bundled-data circuit? This paper is an attempt to give a methodical answer to this question, taking into account all sources of variability and the existing EDA ...
    • State encoding of asynchronous controllers using pseudo-boolean optimization 

      Moreno Vega, Alberto; Cortadella, Jordi (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2018)

      Accés obert
      The synthesis of delay lines (DLs) is a core task during the generation of matched delays, ring oscillator clocks or delay monitors. The main figure of merit of a DL is the fidelity to track variability. Unfortunately, ...
    • Synthesis of timing paths with delays adaptable to integrated circuit variability

      Projecte Final de Màster Oficial
      Accés obert
      This project proposes to substitute the Clock of a circuit for a Ring Oscillator. This Ring Oscillator is designed to be susceptible to variability in the same way than the rest of the system, allowing to drastically reduce ...

      Accés obert
      Improvements in circuit manufacturing have allowed, along the years, increasingly complex designs. This has been enabled by the miniaturization that circuit components have undergone. But, in recent years, ...
    • Waveform Transition Graphs: a designer-friendly formalism for asynchronous behaviours 

      Cortadella, Jordi; Moreno Vega, Alberto; Sokolov, Danil; Yakovlev, Alex; Lloyd, David (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2017)
      Comunicació de congrés
      Accés obert
      The paper proposes a new formal model for describing asynchronous behaviours involving the interplay of causality, concurrency and choice. The model is called Waveform Transition Graphs. Its main aim is simplifying the ...
