Applications of Strongly Coupled Electrostatic NEMS
(University of Waterloo, 2024-04-30)This work explores potential applications of electrostatic nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) in inertial sensing and Frequency Comb (FC) generation. NEMS inertial sensors exhibit exceptional sensitivity with low power ... -
Energy Efficient Techniques For Algorithmic Analog-To-Digital Converters
(University of Waterloo, 2011-12-20)Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are key design blocks in state-of-art image, capacitive, and biomedical sensing applications. In these sensing applications, algorithmic ADCs are the preferred choice due to their ... -
Low Power Register Exchange Viterbi Decoder for Wireless Applications
(University of Waterloo, 2004)Since the invention of wireless telegraphy by Marconi in 1897, wireless technology has not only been enhanced, but also has become an integral part of our everyday lives. The first wireless mobile phone appeared around ... -
Robust Design of Variation-Sensitive Digital Circuits
(University of Waterloo, 2011-07-11)The nano-age has already begun, where typical feature dimensions are smaller than 100nm. The operating frequency is expected to increase up to 12 GHz, and a single chip will contain over 12 billion transistors in 2020, ...
