An 8 bit, 200 MHz BiCMOS comparator - 1989
Lim, Wooley
A BiCMOS comparator intended for use in low-power, high-speed analog-t-digital conversion systems operating at video frequencies and above is described. An experimental version of the comparator integrated in a 1μm BiCMOS technology performs comparisons at mtes up to 200 MHE.

Automatic gain control (AGC) circuit for high density BiCMOS SRAM - 1989
Tran, Fung, Scott
In this paper an Automatic Gain Control (AGC) circuit is discussed. This AGC circuit is applied to a high speed BiCMOS SRAM bitline scheme to control the bitline voltage swings so that they are independent of temperature, operation and process variations.

High performance VLSI processor architectures - 1989
Katz
Single-chip processor performance has improved dramatically since the inception of the four-bit microprocessor in 1971. This is due in part to technological advances (i.e., faster devices and greater device density), but also because of the adoption of architectural approaches well suited to the opportunities and limitations of VLSI. These approaches reduce off-chip memory accesses and admit of a ...... hiện toàn bộ

Fuzzy logic hardware systems - 1989
Yamakawa
Novel fuzzy microprocessors are described, which achieve fuzzy inference with deterministic input and output signals. These two kinds of fuzzy microprocessors are useful for constructing sophisticated fuzzy logic controller. One is a rule chip and the other is a defuzzifier chip. The former is in the monolithic form and the latter is in hybrid structure. These fuzzy microprocessors will rapidly pe...... hiện toàn bộ

CMOS subnanosecond true-ECL output buffer - 1989
Seevinck, Dikken, Schumacher
This paper presents, for the first time, a CMOS output buffer circuit compatible with standard ECL lOOk systems and not needing external components or additional supply voltages. High speed (0.9 ns delay), sufficient precision and good pulse-response are achieved through use of a new circuit principle. The circuit has been fabricated in an 0.7 μm memory process.

A self-timed dynamic sensing scheme for 5V only multi-Mb flash E/sup 2/PROMs - 1989
Kobayashi, Nakayama, Hayashikoshi, Miyawaki, Terada, Arima, Matsukawa, Yoshihara
In recent years, several types of flash E'PROM have been proposed to enhance the density of electrically alterable non-volatile memories. However, shrinking the memory cell causes the reduction of the cell current, 80 that a sensitive sensing scheme has been required, which replaces the conventional current sensing. A simultaneous multi-bit reading is also necessary for L high speed serial and pag...... hiện toàn bộ
