To develop a physical model for extremely scaled DG MOSFETs, the drain current in the channel must be accurately determined under the application of drain and gate voltages. However, modeling the transport mechanism for the nanoscale structures requires the use of overkill meth- ods and models in terms of their complexity and computation time (self-consistent, quantum computations ). Therefore, new methods and techniques are required to overcome these constraints. In this paper, a new approach based on the fuzzy logic computation is proposed to investigate nanoscale DG MOSFETs. The proposed approach has been implemented in a device simulator to show the impact of the proposed approach on the nanoelectronic cir- cuit design. The approach is general and thus is suitable for any type ofnanoscale structure investigation problems in the nanotechnology industry.展开更多

The swi...Based on two modified Rosslor hyperchaotic systems, which are derived from the chaotic Rosslor system by introducing a state feedback controller, this paper proposes a new switched Rosslor hyperchaotic system. The switched system contains two different hyperchaotic systems and can change its behaviour continuously from one to another via a switching function. On the other hand, it presents a systematic method for designing the circuit of realizing the proposed hyperchaotic system. In this design, circuit state equations are written in normalized dimensionless form by rescaling the time variable. Furthermore, an analogous circuit is designed by using the proposed method and built for verifying the new hyperchaos and the design method. Experimental results show a good agreement between numerical simulations and experimental results.展开更多

The parameters for the low-noise design such as the equivalent input noisy voltage Ens, the optimum source impedance Zsopt and the minimum noise figure Fmin can be calculated accurately by using this En-In model because it considers the coherence between the noise sources fully. Moreover, this paper points out that it will cause the maximum 30% miscalculation when neglecting the effects of the correlation coefficient 7. Using the series-series circuits as an example, this paper discusses the methods for the En-In noise analysis of electronic circuits preliminarily and demonstrates its correctness through the comparison between the simulated and measured results of the minimum noise figure Fmin of a single current series negative feedback circuit.展开更多

Fault-tolerant design is the commonly used method to improve the reliability of digital circuits. The current fault-tolerant design methods are based on triple modular redundancy( TMR) or multiple modular redundancy( MMR). These redundancy designs rely on the experience of the designers,and the designed circuits have poor adaptabilities to a complex environment. However, evolutionary design of digital circuits does not rely on prior knowledge. During the evolution, some novel and optimal circuit topologies can be found, and the evolved circuits can feature strong adaptive capacities. Based on Cartesian genetic programming( CGP), a novel method for designing fault-tolerant digital circuits by evolution is proposed,key steps of the evolution are introduced,influences of function sets on evolution are investigated,and as a preliminary result,an evolved full adder with high fault-tolerance is shown.展开更多
