In this paper, we present a simple analytical equation for capturing phase errors in 3-stage ring oscillators. The model, based on a simple but useful idealization of the ring osc...
With increasing demands for high performance by embedded systems, especially by digital signal processing applications, embedded processors must increase available instruction lev...
Serializing instructions (SIs), such as writes to control registers, have many complex dependencies, and are difficult to execute out-of-order (OoO). To avoid unnecessary complexi...
Although PDAs typically run applications in a "standalone" mode, they are increasingly equipped with wireless communications, which makes them useful in new domains. Thi...
