In light of decreasing feature size and greater sophistication of modern processing technology, CMOS has become increasingly attractive, pro- viding low-power (at moderate frequencies), good scalability, and rail-to- rail operation. For many designers, particularly those approaching VLSI from a system viewpoint, previous experience has been mainly with ratioed NMOS design, and so there is a need to buildon this experienceand make a naturaltransition into CMOS design. Indeed, there ismuch that can bebor- rowed from NMOS experience, mainly centered around the techniques for creating N channel pulldown structures. Based on these contributions, CMOS has now grown to the point where there are several circuit styles which have evolved, and these are amply described in this book. Starting at the level ofthe individual MOSFET, basic building blocks are described, as well as the variety of CMOS fabrication processes in contemporary usage. Circuit style issues are then expandedto providethe user with several useful design methodologies, andmuchcareisgiventoelectricalperformancecon- siderations, including characteristics of interconnect, gate delay, and I/O buffering. This understanding is then applied to macro-sized components, including array multipliers, where the reader acquires a unified view of ar- chitectural performance through parallelism, and circuit performance through scrupulousattentionto device sizingandcontrolofparasiticcircuit elements. In addition, layout techniques to avoid latchup, a consideration not previously encountered by NMOS designers, are given careful treatment.

English | PDF (True) | 2023 (2024 Edition) | 718 Pages | ISBN : 3031365534 | 49.5 MB
The book provides new perspectives from leading researchers accentuating and examining the central role of the built environment in conceiving and implementing multifaceted solutions for the complex challenges of our understanding of planetary resources and circularity, revealing critical potentials for architecture and design to contribute in more informed and long-term ways to the urgent transition of our society. The book offers a compilation of peer-reviewed papers that uniquely connects knowledge broadly across practice and academia; from the newest technologies and methods such as the role of digital modelling, analysis, and fabrication in circular design, i.e. material passports, cyber-physical augmentation, and LCA to the potentials of growing and harvesting biomass materials, engaging waste streams in material production and more, all in context of economic, social, and ecological potentials and consequences.

Free Download Design Methods for Digital Systems by Jean Chinal
English | PDF | 1973 | 523 Pages | ISBN : 364286189X | 34 MB
This book constitutes an introduction to the theory of binary switch ing networks (binary logic circuits) such as are encountered in industrial automatic systems, in communications networks and, more particularly, in digital computers. These logic circuits, with or without memory, (sequential circuits, combinational circuits) play an increasing part in many sectors of in dustry. They are, naturally, to be found in digital computers where, by means of an assembly (often complex) of elerpentary circuits, the func tions of computation and decision which are basic to the treatment of information, are performed. In their turn these computers form the heart of an increasing number of digital systems to which they are coupled by interface units which, themselves, fulfil complex functions of information processing. Thus the digital techniques penetrate ever more deeply into industrial and scientific activities in the form of systems with varying degrees of specialization, from the wired-in device with fixed structure to those systems centered on a general-purpose programmable com puter. In addition, the present possibility of mass producing microminiaturi sed logic circuits (integrated circuits, etc. ) gives a foretaste of the intro duction of these techniques into the more familiar aspects of everyday life. The present work is devoted to an exposition of the algebraic techni ques nesessary for the study and synthesis of such logic networks. No previous knowledge of this field of activity is necessary: any technician or engineer possessing an elementary knowledge of mathematics and electronics can undertake its reading.

Free Download Architecture and Design for the Future Internet: 4WARD Project by Luis M. Correia, Henrik Abramowicz, Martin Johnsson, Klaus Wünstel
English | PDF (True) | 2011 | 322 Pages | ISBN : 9048193451 | 9.8 MB
Architecture and Design for the Future Internet addresses the Networks of the Future and the Future Internet, focusing on networks aspects, offering both technical and non-technical perspectives. It presents the main findings of 4WARD (Architecture and Design for the Future Internet), a European Integrated Project within Framework Programme 7, which addressed this area from an innovative approach. Today's network architectures are stifling innovation, restricting it mostly to the application level, while the need for structural change is increasingly evident. The absence of adequate facilities to design, optimise and interoperate new networks currently forces a convergence to an architecture that is suboptimal for many applications and that cannot support innovations within itself, the Internet. 4WARD overcomes this impasse through a set of radical architectural approaches, built on a strong mobile and wireless background. The main topics addressed by the book are: the improved ability to design inter-operable and complementary families of network architectures; the enabled co-existence of multiple networks on common platforms through carrier-grade virtualisation for networking resources; the enhanced utility of networks by making them self-managing; the increased robustness and efficiency of networks by leveraging diversity; and the improved application support by a new information-centric paradigm in place of the old host-centric approach. These solutions embrace the full range of technologies, from fibre backbones to wireless and sensor networks.
