This book pioneers the field of gain-cell embedded DRAM (GC-eDRAM) design for low-power VLSI systems-on-chip (SoCs). Novel GC-eDRAMs are specifically designed and optimized for a range of low-power VLSI SoCs, ranging from ultra-low power to power-aware high-performance applications. After a detailed review of prior-art GC-eDRAMs, an analytical retention time distribution model is introduced and validated by silicon measurements, which is key for low-power GC-eDRAM design. The book then investigates supply voltage scaling and near-threshold voltage (NTV) operation of a conventional gain cell (GC), before presenting novel GC circuit and assist techniques for NTV operation, including a 3-transistor full transmission-gate write port, reverse body biasing (RBB), and a replica technique for optimum refresh timing. Next, conventional GC bitcells are evaluated under aggressive technology and voltage scaling (down to the subthreshold domain), before novel bitcells for aggressively scaled CMOS nodes and soft-error tolerance as presented, including a 4-transistor GC with partial internal feedback and a 4-transistor GC with built-in redundancy.

His research interests include energy-efficient digital circuit design with an emphasis on embedded memories and efficient physical implementation of VLSI systems.

Robert Giterman is a researcher Ph.D. student at the Emerging Nanoscaled Intergrated Circuits and Systems (EnICS) Labs in Bar Ilan University, guided by Prof. Alexander Fish and Dr. Adam Teman. He received the B.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from Ben-Gurion University, Be’er Sheva, Israel, in 2013. He completed the M.Sc. degree at Ben-Gurion University in 2014 as part of a fast track program for outstanding students. Mr. Giterman’s research interests include embedded DRAM design and optimization for low power and high performance operation, SRAM design with an emphasis on improved stability, error-correction and fault-tolerant circuits and development of hardware-security oriented embedded memories for use in low-power applications and high-end processors. As part of his research, he led several full test chip integrations and tape out. He has authored/co-authored 15 journal articles and international conference papers and 3 patent applications, and has presented his research at a number of international conferences. In 2014, he was awarded the presidential scholarship for outstanding Doctorate students.

Noa Edri is a design and verification SoC engineer at Nanoscaled Intergrated Circuits and Systems (EnICS) Labs in Bar Ilan University.

Sale & Shipping Terms

Terms of Sale

We accept return for those books which are received damamged. Though we take appropriate care in packaing to avoid such situation.

Right of cancellation

If you are a consumer you can cancel the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE RIGHT OF CANCELLATION

Statutory Right to cancel

You have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the the last good or the last lot or piece.

To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us, Books Puddle, 244 Madison Ave, Suite # 405, 10016, New York, New York, U.S.A., +1 7183015977, of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail). You may use the attached model cancellation form, but it is not obligatory. You can also electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". If you use this option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a cancellation on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.

To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.

Effects of cancellation

If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel with contract.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
