Control Algorithm for Voltage Regulation

March 22, 2009

A Hybrid Control Algorithm for Voltage Regulation in DC–DC Boost Converter Sreekumar, C. & Agarwal, V. A new switching control algorithm based on state trajectory approximation is proposed to regulate the output voltage of a representative second-order DC-DC converter – the boost converter. The essence of the proposed algorithm is to trap the system into [...]

Error Localization of Complex DFT Codes

March 9, 2009

Error Localization of Complex DFT Codes Using Propagator Method Nidhin Kizhakan In this paper we consider the problem of error localization of complex DFT codes and the reconstruction of message. A propagator-based subspace algorithm is proposed for error localization of quantized DFT codes. The propagator method requires only linear operations and does not require any [...]

Sequential Equivalence Techniques

March 9, 2009

Sequential Equivalence Techniques for High Performance Design Sini Balakrishnan Quite often in semiconductor industry, when a product is nearing its launch date, most of us have had the deja-vu situation of performance to time-to-market trade-offs; especially in high-performance designs. Sequential equivalence checking opens up possibilities in this area, by enabling performance-tuning related sequential micro-architectural changes [...]
