Proceedings ArticleDOI
Programmable aging sensor for automotive safety-critical applications
TL;DR: The purpose of this paper is to present a novel programmable nanometer aging sensor that allows several levels of circuit failure prediction and exhibits low sensitivity to PVT (Process, power supply Voltage and Temperature) variations.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Aging monitoring with local sensors in FPGA-based designs
C. Leong,Jorge Semião,Isabel C. Teixeira,Marcelino B. Santos,João Paulo Teixeira,María Dolores Valdés,J. Freijedo,Juan J. Rodriguez-Andina,Fabian Vargas +8 more
TL;DR: A novel aging monitoring methodology for FPGA-based designs to mitigate those effects is proposed, and it is shown that local sensors will anticipate system failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
RTL-Based Functional Test Generation for High Defects Coverage in Digital Systems
TL;DR: A RTL-based test generation methodology which can rewardingly be used both for design validation and to enhance the test effectiveness of classic, gate-level test generation is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Time Management for Low-Power Design of Digital Systems
Jorge Semião,J. Freijedo,Juan J. Rodriguez-Andina,Fabian Vargas,Marcelino B. Santos,Isabel C. Teixeira,J. Paulo Teixeira +6 more
TL;DR: A VT-aware time management methodology is presented which leads to improved PVT tolerance, without compromising performance or testability, and is proved to be efficient, even in the presence of process variations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultra low power capless LDO with dynamic biasing of derivative feedback
TL;DR: Using the new dynamic biasing of the derivative loop, an improvement is obtained in the derivative sensing of the fast output voltage variations, enabling a significant enhancement in the transient response of the capless LDO.
