Abstract:
A reception element receives an analog signal. The received analog signal is converted by a reception chain into a digital signal. Based on the digital signal and a first filtering operation, a correction chain generates a correction digital signal reconstituting dynamic nonlinearities generated by the reception chain. A corrected signal from which the reconstituted dynamic nonlinearities have been removed is then generated by subtracting the correction digital signal from the digital signal.
Abstract:
A flip flop includes a data input, a clock input, a test chain input, a test chain output, a monitoring circuit, and an alert transmission circuit. The monitoring circuit is adapted to generate an alert if the time between arrival of a data bit and a clock edge is less than a threshold. The alert transmission circuit is adapted to apply during a monitoring phase an alert level to the test chain output in the event of an alert generated by the monitoring circuit, and to apply the alert level to the test chain output when an alert level is received at the test chain input.
Abstract:
The present description concerns a method that includes the compression, by a processor, of an image comprising first patterns by transforming the image into a first representation formed of two-point elements. The method also includes the execution, by a neural network, of an inference operation on the first representation to generate a second representation formed of two-point elements. The method further includes the generation of a lithographic mask based on the decompression of the second representation.
Abstract:
A power management circuit including, between a first terminal intended to be connected to an electric power generation source and a second terminal intended to be connected to a load to be powered, a linear regulator and a circuit capable of activating the linear regulator when the power supplied by said source is greater than a first threshold.
Abstract:
Adaptive scaling digital techniques attempt to place the system close to the timing failure so as to maximize energy efficiency. Rapid recovery from potential failures is usually by slowing the system clock and/or providing razor solutions (instruction replay.) These techniques compromise the throughput. This application presents a technique to provide local in-situ fault resilience based on dynamic slack borrowing. This technique is non-intrusive (needs no architecture modification) and has minimal impact on throughput.
