CMOS technology based on PCA is very efficient at an implementation of memory or ALU. However, there has been a growing interest in quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) because of the limitation of CMOS scaling. In this paper, we propose a design of PCA architecture based on QCA. In the proposed PCA design, we utilize D flip-flop and XOR logic gate without wire crossing technique, and design a input and rule control switches. In experiment, we perform the simulation of the proposed PCA architecture by QCADesigner. As the result, we confirm the efficiency the proposed architecture.

This paper describes a high-speed CMOS demultiplexer using redundant multi-valued logic (RMVL). The proposed circuit receives serial binary data and is converted to parallel redundant multi-valued data using RMVL. The converted data are reconverted to parallel binary data. By the redundant multi-valued data conversion, the RMVL makes it possible to achieve higher operating speeds than that of a conventional binary logic. The implemented demultiplexer consists of eight integrators. Each integrator is composed of an accumulator, a window comparator, a decoder and a D flip flop. The demultiplexer is designed with TSMC $0.18{\mu}m$ standard CMOS process. The validity and effectiveness are verified through the HSPICE simulation. The demultiplexer is achieved the maximum data rate of 20 Gb/s and the average power consumption of 95.85 mW.

Recently, image signal processing techniques for HDTV signal have been drastically developed. This kind of skill improvement on signal processing need specific memory device for video signal. in this paper, data latch scheme which implements CMOS flip-flop to hold Information from in-put strobe and new reading method is devised to attain a proper access time suitable for HDTY signal. Compared with conventional write scheme, data latch method has two procedures to complete write operation : bit line write and storage cell write, enabling concurrent I /0 operation at the same address. Also, fast read access is possible through the method similar to static column mode and the separated read word line.

The state assignment for a finite state machine greatly affects the delay, area, and testabilities of the sequential circuits. In order to minimize the dependencies among groups of state variables, therefore possibly to reduce the length and number of feedback cycles, a new state assignment technique based on m-block partition is introduced in this paper. After the completion of proposed state assignment and logic synthesis, partial scan design is performed to choose minimal number of scan flip-flops. Experiment shows drastic improvement in testabilities while preserving low area and delay overhead.

In this paper we propose an architecture for VLC(Variable Length Coder) and VLD(Variable Length Decoder) which is simple with respect to implementation point and efficient in memory. We implemented encoding and decoding circuit where we need only 7-bit address memory space for 114 MPEG1 DCT coefficients and employed minimal number of flip-flops and logics for an architecture to integrate a shift register for serial-to-parallel or parallel-to-serial conversion of the data in code mapping ROM. We obtained 50Mbps operating speed in both encoding and decoding process as the result of simulation using 0.80.8${\mu}m$ CMOS standard cells.

This paper shows a satellite battery cell voltage monitor system to make differential voltage measurements when one or both measurement points are beyond voltage range allowed by a conventional differential amplifier. This system is particularly useful for monitoring the individual cell voltage of series-connected cells that constitute a rechargeable satellite battery in which some cell voltages must be measured in the presence of high common mode voltage.

A multiplier is proposed for computing multiplication of two arbitrary elements in the finite fields GF($2^m$), and the operation process is described step by step. The modified type of the circuit which is constructed with m-stage feedgack shift register, m-1 flip-flop, m AND gate, and m-input XOR gate is presented by referring to the conventional shift-register multiplier. At the end of mth shift, the shift-register multiplier stores the product of two elements of GF($2^m$); however the proposed circuit in this paper requires m-1 clock times from first input to first output. This circuit is simpler than cellulra-array or systolic multiplier and moreover it is faster than systolic multiplier.

In the distance measurement system the time-to-digital conversion circuit used measures the distance using the time interval between the start signal and the stop signal. The time interval is generally converted to digital information using a counter circuit considering the response speed. Therefore, a clock signal with a high frequency is required to improve precision, and a clock signal with a high frequency is also required to measure fine distances. In this paper, a counter circuit was designed to increase the accuracy of distance measurement while using the same frequency. The circuit design was performed using a 0.18㎛ CMOS process technology, and the operation of the designed circuit was confirmed through HSPICE simulation. As a result of the simulation, it is possible to obtain an improvement of four times the precision compared to the case of using a general counter circuit.

In general, PLL or DDS are mainly used as precise and stable frequency synthesis methods. For stable operation, a PWM frequency generation algorithm was designed and implemented using FPGA. This is an algorithm that creates a frequency 8,192 times the target frequency and then performs the D flip-flop 13 times to generate multiple frequencies with a precision of 1 Hz. Using the designed algorithm, it is applied to the Berthing system for stopping trains in station. The applied product was developed and tested against the existing operating system to confirm its superior performance in terms of frequency generation accuracy.

We designed a high temperature superconducting rapid single flux quantum(RSFQ) T flip-flop(TFF) circuit using Xic and WRspice. According to the optimized circuit parameters, we fabricated the TFF circuit with $Y_1$$Ba_2$Cu$_3$$O_{7-x}$(YBCO) interface-controlled Josephson junctions. The whole circuit was comprised of five epitaxial layers including YBCO ground plane. The interface-controlled Josephson junction was fabricated with natural junction barrier that was formed by interface-treatment process. In addition, we report second design for a new flip-flop without ground palne.e.
