  • Design and Evaluation of a Clock Multiplexing Circuit for the SSRL Booster Accelerator Timing System
    SLAC-TN-15-018 Design and Evaluation of a Clock Multiplexing Circuit for the SSRL Booster Accelerator Timing System Million Araya† August 21, 2015 Seattle Central Community College, Seattle, WA CCI Program, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory SPEAR3 is a 234 m circular storage ring at SLAC’s synchrotron radiation facility (SSRL) in which a 3 GeV electron beam is stored for user access. Typically the electron beam decays with a time constant of approximately 10hr due to electron lose. In order to replenish the lost electrons, a booster synchrotron is used to accelerate fresh electrons up to 3GeV for injection into SPEAR3. In order to maintain a constant electron beam current of 500mA, the injection process occurs at 5 minute intervals. At these times the booster synchrotron accelerates electrons for injection at a 10Hz rate. A 10Hz 'injection ready' clock pulse train is generated when the booster synchrotron is operating. Between injection intervals-where the booster is not running and hence the 10 Hz ‘injection ready’ signal is not present-a 10Hz clock is derived from the power line supplied by Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) to keep track of the injection timing. For this project I constructed a multiplexing circuit to 'switch' between the booster synchrotron 'injection ready' clock signal and PG&E based clock signal. The circuit uses digital IC components and is capable of making glitch-free transitions between the two clocks. This report details construction of a prototype multiplexing circuit including test results and suggests improvement opportunities for the final design. I. Introduction The ultimate purpose of a synchrotron radiation facility is to generate stable, high-power beams of light spanning from the Infrared to x-ray portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.

  • V850 Standby Modes
    Application Note V850 Standby Modes V850ES/SG2 V850ES/SJ2 Document No. U18825EE1V0AN00 Date Published June 2007 © NEC Electronics Corporation June 2007 Printed in Germany NOTES FOR CMOS DEVICES 1 VOLTAGE APPLICATION WAVEFORM AT INPUT PIN Waveform distortion due to input noise or a reflected wave may cause malfunction. If the input of the CMOS device stays in the area between VIL (MAX) and VIH (MIN) due to noise, etc., the device may malfunction. Take care to prevent chattering noise from entering the device when the input level is fixed, and also in the transition period when the input level passes through the area between VIL (MAX) and VIH (MIN). 2 HANDLING OF UNUSED INPUT PINS Unconnected CMOS device inputs can be cause of malfunction. If an input pin is unconnected, it is possible that an internal input level may be generated due to noise, etc., causing malfunction. CMOS devices behave differently than Bipolar or NMOS devices. Input levels of CMOS devices must be fixed high or low by using pull-up or pull-down circuitry. Each unused pin should be connected to VDD or GND via a resistor if there is a possibility that it will be an output pin. All handling related to unused pins must be judged separately for each device and according to related specifications governing the device. 3 PRECAUTION AGAINST ESD A strong electric field, when exposed to a MOS device, can cause destruction of the gate oxide and ultimately degrade the device operation. Steps must be taken to stop generation of static electricity as much as possible, and quickly dissipate it when it has occurred.

  • VLSI Digital Signal Processing
    CLOCKS Clocks in Digital Systems • Why are clocks and clocked memory registers needed inside digital systems? • Clocks pace the flow of data inside digital processors • The exact speed of data through circuits is impossible to predict accurately due to factors such as: – Fabrication process variations – Supply voltage variations “PVT variations” – Temperature variations – Countless parasitic effects (e.g., wire-to-wire capacitances) – Data-dependent variations (e.g., calculating 1 OR 1 = 1 requires a different delay than 1 OR 0 = 1) © B. Baas 322 Clocks in Digital Systems • Clocked memory elements slow down the fastest signals, wait until all signals have finished propagating through the combinational logic in the stage*, and then release them into the next stage simultaneously, controlled by the active edge of the clock signal • * This is why we care about clock only the single slowest signal in a block (max propagation delay) when finding the maximum clock frequency © B. Baas 323 Clocks in Digital Systems • All paths within a digital system consist of an input register, (optionally) followed by combinational logic, followed by an output register • Therefore: – If we can make this structure work under all conditions, we can build a robust digital system – We should analyze this structure carefully clock a combinational out b logic c_p1 c_p3 © B. Baas c_p2 324 Robust Clock Design • Edge-triggered memory elements (flip-flops) are generally more robust than level-sensitive memory elements (transparent latches) • Always follow these rules in this class, and for the most robust designs: 1. Only clock signals may connect to flip-flop or latch clock inputs • A simpler circuit may sometimes be possible if a logic signal is connected to a clock input, but do not do it for robustness • always @(posedge key) begin 2.

  • 7. Latches and Flip-Flops
    Chapter 7 – Latches and Flip-Flops Page 1 of 18 7. Latches and Flip-Flops Latches and flip-flops are the basic elements for storing information. One latch or flip-flop can store one bit of information. The main difference between latches and flip-flops is that for latches, their outputs are constantly affected by their inputs as long as the enable signal is asserted. In other words, when they are enabled, their content changes immediately when their inputs change. Flip-flops, on the other hand, have their content change only either at the rising or falling edge of the enable signal. This enable signal is usually the controlling clock signal. After the rising or falling edge of the clock, the flip-flop content remains constant even if the input changes. There are basically four main types of latches and flip-flops: SR, D, JK, and T. The major differences in these flip-flop types are the number of inputs they have and how they change state. For each type, there are also different variations that enhance their operations. In this chapter, we will look at the operations of the various latches and flip- flops. 7.1 Bistable Element The simplest sequential circuit or storage element is a bistable element, which is constructed with two inverters connected sequentially in a loop as shown in Figure 1. It has no inputs and two outputs labeled Q and Q’. Since the circuit has no inputs, we cannot change the values of Q and Q’. However, Q will take on whatever value it happens to be when the circuit is first powered up.

One has long grown accustomed to the idea of digital computers. Evolving steadily from main- frame and minicomputers, personal and laptop computers have proliferated into daily life. More significant, however, is a continuous trend towards digital solutions in all other areas of electronics. Instrumentation was one of the first noncomputing domains where the potential benefits of digital data manipulation over analog processing were recognized. Other areas such as control were soon to follow. Only recently have we witnessed the con- version of telecommunications and consumer electronics towards the digital format. Increasingly, telephone data is transmitted and processed digitally over both wired and wireless networks. The compact disk has revolutionized the audio world, and digital video is following in its footsteps. The idea of implementing computational engines using an encoded data format is by no means an idea of our times. In the early nineteenth century, Babbage envisioned large- scale mechanical computing devices, called Difference Engines [Swade93]. Although these engines use the decimal number system rather than the binary representation now common in modern electronics, the underlying concepts are very similar.

The purpose of this work is to identify which of the three is most suitable for SVM implementation. The performance is measured by looking at the time required by each of the architectures per prediction. This work also provides an analysis of possible alternatives to existing implementations of computationally intensive algorithms, such as SVM.
