Content-addressable memory (CAM) has been part of the memory market for more than five decades. CAM can carry out a single clock cycle lookup based on the content rather than an address. Thanks to this attractive feature, CAM is utilized in memory sy...
In recent years, the development of Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADASs) is driving the need for more reliable and precise on-vehicle sensing. Radar and lidar are crucial in this framework, since they allow sensing of vehicle’s surroundin...
Silicon radiation detectors, a special type of microelectronic sensor which plays a crucial role in many applications, are reviewed in this paper, focusing on fabrication aspects. After addressing the basic concepts and the main requirements, the evo...
This article summarizes the current development status of nanoimprint lithography (NIL) technology and its application prospects in multiple industries. Nanoimprint lithography technology has significant advantages, such as low cost, high resolution,...
Silicon carbide is changing power electronics; it is enabling massive car electrification owing to its far more efficient operation with respect to mainstream silicon in a large variety of energy conversion systems like the main traction inverter of...
In this work, we present a compact “adaptive downsampling” method that mitigates the nonlinearity problems associated with FPGA-based TDCs that utilize delay lines. Additionally, this generic method allows for trade-offs between resolutio...
Inverter-based Operational Transconductance Amplifiers (OTAs) are versatile and friendly scalable analog circuit blocks. Especially for the new CMOS technological nodes, several recent applications have been extensively using them, ranging from Analo...
Radiation effects on electronic devices represent a major concern in applications for harsh environments, such as aerospace and nuclear facilities. This article presents a review of fundamental aspects of radiation effects on semiconductors, with a p...
This work is focused on the performance of three different standard-cell-based comparator topologies, considering ultra-low-voltage (ULV) operation. The main application scenarios in which standard-cell-based comparators can be exploited are consider...
This paper presents a state-of-the-art review of different approaches for Neural Architecture Search targeting resource-constrained devices such as microcontrollers, as well as the implementations of on-device learning techniques for them. Approaches...
