In this paper, we propose a new hardware architecture to generate computer-generated holograms based on the block based calculation method and implement a VLSI (very large scaled integrated circuit) in ASIC (application specific integrated circuit) environment. The proposed hardware has a structure that can produce a part of a hologram in the unit of a block in parallel. After calculating a block of a hologram by using an object point, the calculation is repeated to all object points and intermediate results from them are accumulated to produce a final block of a hologram. Through this structure, we can make various size of holograms with the optimized memory access in real-time operation. The proposed hardware was implemented in the Hynix 0.18um CMOS technology of Magna chip Inc. and has 876,608 gate counts. It can generate complex holograms unlike the previous researches and stably operate in the clock frequency of 200MHz.

Electrical Designs for Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC) has undergone a change recently with the advent of the sub-wavelength lithography. The optical projection with 193 nm wavelength has been further extended with the use of immersion and other techniques. The competing trends for printing smaller design features have been discussed in this paper with the discussion of the electrical layout analysis to find unfriendly design features. The early knowledge of the unfriendly design features allows remedial actions in time for better yield on the wafer. There are existing standard design qualification criteria being used in the design and fabrication community, but they seem to be insufficient to guarantee defect free designs. This paper proposes an integrated approach for screening the layout with multiple aspects: layout geometry based, graphical analysis and process model based verification. The results have been discussed with few example design features from the 28nm design layout.

A voice recognition control system is a system for controlling a peripheral device by recognizing a voice. Recently, a voice recognition control system have been applied not only to smart devices but also to various environments ranging from IoT(: Internet of Things), robots, and vehicles. In such a voice recognition control system, the recognition rate is lowered due to the ambient noise in addition to the voice of the user. In this paper, we propose a dual channel acoustic beamforming hardware architecture for MEMS(: Microelectromechanical Systems) microphones to eliminate ambient noise in addition to user's voice. And the proposed hardware architecture is designed as ASIC(: Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) using TowerJazz $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS(: Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor) technology. The designed dual channel acoustic beamforming ASIC has a die size of $48mm^2$, and the directivity index of the user's voice were measured to be 4.233㏈.

The use of HDL(Hardware Description Language) is now central to the ASIC(Application Specific Integrated Circuit). HDL-based ASIC can simplify the process of development and has a competition in market because it reduce the consuming time for the design of IC(Integrated circuit) in system level. Therefore, the development of power electronics system on chip (SOC), to design microcontroller and switching logic as one chip, is required extremely for the purpose of having reliability and low cost in power electronics which is based on switching elements. The major application of SOC is variable converter, active filter inverter for induction motor. UPS and power supply with a view to reducing electro-magnetic pollution.

In this study, several sensor parts used to obtain better signal stability are designed, a separate control circuit for the sensor is developed, and the results obtained using this control circuit are analyzed. The capacitances of the whole sensor system are measured using the control circuit connected to an improved flexible printed circuit board and an asymmetric dual sensor coated with a ceramic material. To realize good discrimination for a small change in the measured capacitance as the engine oil deteriorates, a commercial application-specific integrated circuit is installed on the control circuit as a capacitance-to-digital converter. The absolute error of a measured signal is found to be approximately ${\pm}4fF$.

The paper describes a implementation of space vector pulse-width modulation voltage source inverter and interfacing of DSP using field programmable gate array(FPGA) for a induction motor vector control system. The implemented chip is included logic circuits for SVPWM, dead time compensation and speed detection using Quick Logic, QLl6X24B. The maximum operating frequency and delay time can be set to 110MHz and 6 nsec. The designed Application Specific Integrated Circuit(ASIC) for SVPWM can be incorporated with a digital signal processing to provide a simple and effective solution for high performance induction motor drives with a voltage source inverter. Simulation and implementation results are shown to verify the usefulness of ASIC in a motor drive system and power electronics applications.

ASIC(application specific integrated circuit) process is a set of various technologies for fabricating a chip. Generally there have been many researches for RTL design, synthesis, floor plan & routing, low power scheme, clock tree synthesis, and testability which are widely researched in recent. In this paper we propose a new methodology of power strap routing in basis of design experience and experiment. First the power strap for vertical VDD and VSS and horizontal VDD and VSS is routed, and then after the problems which are generated in this process are analyzed, we propose a new process for resolving them. For this, the strap guide is inserted to protect the unnecessary strap routing and dumped for next steps. Next the unnecessary power straps which are generated the first inserting process are removed, and the pre-routing is performed for the macro cells. Finally the resultant power straps are routed using the dumped routing guide. Through the proposed process we identified the efficient and stable route of the power straps.

ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit)은 직역하면 응용특정 IC, 혹은 특정용도 IC로서 LSI시장의 조사회사인 Dataquest사가 '84년경부터 사용하기 시작한 말이다. ASIC이 최근 크게 주목을 끌고있는 것은, 반도체 사용자가 자신의 제품에 개성을 불어넣기 위해서는 범용IC를 사용해온 것으로는 기술적 우위성이 확보되지 않는다고 판단했기 때문에 주문형 LSI를 강하게 추진해 왔다는 것과 반도체 메이커도 메모리IC를 중심으로 한 범용IC시장의 부진, 더우기 날로 더해가는 반도체 시장의 시장쟁탈 및 무역마찰로 인해 ASIC 시장에로의 참여가 강화되어 왔다는 점 등을 들수있다. 집적화 기술은 매년 진보하여 지금은 100만개 이상의 트랜지스터를 집적할 수 있게 되었다. 따라서 지금까지 SSI/MSI를 사용해서 회로설계한 기능단위의 칩을 프린터 기판위에 조합시켜 시스팀을 구축해 왔으나, 앞으로는 하나의 칩위에 시스팀을 구성하는 시대로 변하고 있다. ASIC은 그 요청에 따라서 one-chip화의 개념에 따라서 만들어진 것으로서, 시장환경에 대단히 유익한 디바이스로 생각할 수 있다. 시스팀의 one-chip화의 실현결과 압도적으로 소형화, 경량화, 성자원화가 달성됨과 동시에 신뢰성 및 동작성능도 우수하게 되었다. ASIC기술은 현재 주류로 되어있는 게이트 어레이를 볼때, 개발비용은 크게 감소하여 개발기간도 논리회로가 완성된다면 3~4주 정도로 단축시킬수 있다. ASIC 설계에는 각 공정에 있어서 고도의 컴퓨터 지원설계가 채용되고 제조공정에서는 첨단의 프로세서 기술 등이 이용되므로 ASIC기술은 종합적인 첨단기술의 집약이라고 불러도 좋을것이다. 이러한 기술추세에 맞추어 전자통신 동향분석지 제3권 제1호(1988.3.)에 발표된 최신 ASIC기술동향의 후속편으로 ASIC에 관련된 중요용어 50개를 선정, 알파벳 순으로 나열하여 설명하였다.
