Network on Chip (NoC) architectures have emerged in recent years as scalable communication fabrics to enable high bandwidth data transfers in chip multiprocessors (CMPs). These interconnection architectures still need to conquer many challenges, e.g....

Trapping effects on two AlGaN/GaN Schottky diodes with a different composition of the AlGaN barrier layer were analyzed by current transient spectroscopy. The current transients were measured at a constant bias and at six different temperatures betwe...

Driving with too short of a safety distance is a common problem in road traffic, often with traffic accidents as a consequence. Research has identified a lack of vehicle-mountable devices for alerting the drivers of trailing vehicles about keeping a...

The reliability of power electronic devices and components is very important to manufacturers. In recent years, many researchers have conducted reliability assessments of power electronic devices, yet the reliability of numerous circuits used widely...

This paper presents a method for designing linear, quadratic and cubic interpolators that compute elementary functions using truncated multipliers, squarers and cubers. Initial coefficient values are obtained using a Chebyshev series approximation. A...

Motion planning deals with finding a collision-free trajectory for a robot from the current position to the desired goal. For a high-dimensional space, sampling-based algorithms are widely used. Different sampling algorithms are used in different env...

Vertical structured Gallium nitride (GaN) p-n junction diodes with improved breakdown properties have been demonstrated using high-k dielectric passivation underneath the field plate. Simulation results at a reverse voltage of 1 kV showed that the ma...

This paper reports on an extensive investigation of the gate stability of GaN-based High Electron Mobility Transistors with p-type gate submitted to forward gate stress. Based on combined electrical and electroluminescence measurements, we demonstrat...
