  • Identifying Datapaths in a Gate Level Netlist

    Logic designs is usually comprised of two types of logic: data paths and control logic. During reverse engineering, we first try to locate the data path structures taking advantage of their regular structure. Finding these structures helps in locating major circuit elements, such as register files, adders, ALU, multipliers, etc. The distinguishing property of data paths is aggregation of bit-level operations into multibit word operations. In this project, we will...

  • A Real-Time Night Vision Camera Control System

    A novel night vision low resolution camera is being developed in Technion. It is based on a thermally isolated floating MOS transistor used to sense temperature changes as a result of external Infrared radiation. When a constant voltage is applied to the transistor, its current signal follows the temperature variations. This current signal is read out and amplified before further processing. This is done by an integrated readout circuit (ROIC).

  • Mixed Signal Readout System for IR Camera Based on Verilog/VHDL

    The Technion's innovative TMOS sensors utilize widely available and affordable CMOS-SOI technology together with MEMS micromachining to achieve break-through in passive IR imaging. The CMOS-SOI technology allows the integration of the 2D sensors focal plane array matrix with the analog readout, which is the subject of this project. In this project, you will design, implement and simulate top level architecture for an IR camera system that includes 10x10 matrix of...

  • Improvement of Power/Performance in RSA Encryption Using CNFET Technology

    Although advances with silicon-based electronics continue to be made, alternative technologies are being explored. Digital circuits based on transistors fabricated from carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have the potential to outperform silicon by improving the energy–delay product, a metric of energy efficiency, by more than an order of magnitude. Hence, CNTs are an exciting complement to existing semiconductor technologies. In order to evaluate the potential of CNFETs to replace silicon CMOS technology,...
