This paper presents the design and implementation of a novel pulse width modulation control class D amplifiers chip. With high-performance, low-voltage, low-power and small area, these circuits are employed in portable electronic systems, such as the low-power circuits, wireless communication and high-frequency circuit systems. This class D chip followed the chip implementation center advanced design flow, and then was fabricated using Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacture Company 0.35-μm 2P4M mixed-signal CMOS process. The chip supply voltage is 3.3 V which can operate at a maximum frequency of 100 MHz. The total power consumption is 2.8307 mW, and the chip area size is 1.1497×1.1497 mm2. Finally, the class D chip was tested and the experimental results are discussed. From the excellent performance of the chip verified that it can be applied to audio amplifiers, low-power circuits, etc.

The proposed paper is discussed about the design, verification and analysis of a 32-bit Processing Unit.  The complete front-end design flow is processed using Xilinx Vivado System Design Suite software tools and target verification is done by using Artix 7 FPGA. Virtual I/O concept is used for the verification process. It will perform 32 different operations including parity generation and code conversions: Binary to Grey and Grey to Binary. It is a low power design implemented with Verilog HDL and power analysis is implementedwith clock frequencies ranging from 10MhZ to 100GhZ. With all these frequencies, power analysis is verified for different I/O standards LVCMOS12, LVCMOS25 and LVCMOS33.

Power consumption is becoming an increasingly important aspect of circuit design. High power consumption can lead to high machine temperature, short battery life which makes laptop electronics difficult to be widely used. IEEE 1801 Unified Power Format (UPF) is designed to express power intent for electronic systems and components .This paper first introduces the power principles, puts forward the approaches to reduce power consumption according to UPF, and then demonstrates the Synopsys design flow based on UPF, finally gives the power report and makes a conclusion.

Leakage power consumption has been almost a serious problem these days in semiconductor industry. Many low power techniques like multi-voltage, power gating etc. are deployed to improve power saving. Power aware verification hence has become a critical issue now. Static low power verification has been developed to verify that low power architectures are designed in correct approach meeting all electrical rules in SoC. The UPF(Unified Power Format) is the standardized format that has all power intent information and can be used throughout the design flow to ensure that the power specification is intact. Firstly, this paper describes the special cells and its operation used in low power techniques. Secondly it describes the major checks examined at each stage using Synopsys VCLP tool and finally debugging with the tool and conclusion.

Wireless sensor networks are used in many diverse application scenarios that require the network designer to trade off different factors. Two such factors of importance in many wireless sensor networks are communication reliability and battery life. This paper describes an efficient, low complexity, high throughput channel decoder suited to decoding low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. LDPC codes have demonstrated excellent error-correcting ability such that a number of recent wireless standards have opted for their inclusion. Hardware realisation of practical LDPC decoders is a challenging area especially when power efficient solutions are needed. Implementation details are given for an LDPC decoding algorithm, termed adaptive threshold bit flipping (ATBF), designed for low complexity and low power operation. The ATBF decoder was implemented in 90 nm CMOS at 0.9 V using a standard cell design flow and was shown to operate at 250 MHz achieving a throughput of 252 Gb/s/iteration. The decoder area was 0.72 mm2 with a power consumption of 33.14 mW and a very small energy/decoded bit figure of 1.3 pJ.
