Latency-Guided On-Chip Bus Network Design
Deep submicron technology scaling has two major ramifications on the design process. First, reduced feature size significantly increases wire delay, thus resulting in critical paths being dominated by global interconnect rather than gate delays. Second, ultra-high level of integration mandates design of systems-on-chip that encompass numerous design blocks of decreased...

Development of a Single-Chip RF Front-End LSI for Wireless LAN With Transmission Line Based Matching Circuits
In Direct Conversion Receiver DCR architecture, the design of mixer is one of the most important steps for a high-performance DCR because it involves the issues of flicker (1/f) noise and conversion gain simultaneously. So, minimizing 1/f noise while achieving high gain without sacrificing linearity for high performance DCR is...
