Prototype and evaluation of the CoRAM memory architecture for FPGA-based computing
TL;DR: The results of the evaluation show that a soft emulation of the CoRAM memory architecture on current FPGAs can be impractical for memory-intensive, large-scale applications due to the high performance and area penalties incurred by the soft mechanisms, but the introduction of hard macro blocks for data distribution can mitigate these inefficiencies.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Modeling and Design of High-Radix On-Chip Crossbar Switches
TL;DR: An on-chip crossbar modeling tool based on analytical models calibrated using circuit-level simulation results in 40nm CMOS is developed, showing how crossbar area, power, and performance vary across input/output node number, data width, wire parameters, and circuit implementation.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Extended abstract: A high-performance, low-overhead, power-analysis-resistant, single-rail logic style
Eric Menendez,Ken Mai +1 more
TL;DR: Three-phase single-Rail precharge logic (TSPL), a single-rail dynamic logic family with high DPA resistance and significantly lower overheads in performance, area, and power than other DPA-resistant logic styles are presented.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A DPA-resistant self-timed three-phase dual-rail pre-charge logic family
TL;DR: A self-timed three-phase dual-rail pre-charge logic family (ST-TDPL), which internally generates the discharge clock in a distributed manner, which achieves a similarly low NED value as TDPL, while also providing protection against attacks on the clocking infrastructure.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Virtual prototyper (ViPro): an early design space exploration and optimization tool for SRAM designers
TL;DR: Virtual Prototyper (ViPro) is introduced, a tool that helps SRAM designers explore the large design space by rapidly generating optimized virtual prototypes of complete SRAM macros by incorporating them into a hierarchical model that captures circuit and architectural features of the SRAM to optimize a complete prototype.
