Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Rapid developments in artificial intelligence, embodied intelligence, edge computing, and cyber–physical systems give rise to different challenges involving complex design trade-offs. Several emerging applications demand energy-efficient solutions and higher levels of performance, reliability, and intelligence based on smart technology, while also demanding applications smaller in size and that use less power. The need to establish an appropriate balance between these contradictory requirements is driving the evolution of integrated circuits and systems. Therefore, the main objective of this Special Issue is to host emerging research and recent developments, reviews, and results in the field of the design, packaging, and verification of low-power integrated circuits. Relevant topics include, but are not limited to, the following: 

  • Design space exploration;
  • System-on-a-chip design;
  • Network-on-a-chip design;
  • Domain-specific accelerator design;
  • Software hardware co-design;
  • Low-power memory design;
  • Design and verification of multi-die integration;
  • Chiplet interconnect design;
  • Advanced packaging and system integration;
  • Data converters—ADCs and DACs;
  • Digital-based analog processing;
  • Mixed-signal circuits/systems;
  • Application of artificial intelligence in integrated circuits;
  • Reliability design of integrated circuits;
  • Reliability evaluation of digital integrated circuits.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Electronics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
