Development of novel classes of high performance microelectronic systems on chip for ultra low power wireless applications

Objetivo

Applications for ultra low-power wireless technologies are in strong demand today and their significance will continuously increase in the nearest future. Modern medical, telecommunication and multimedia applications are among the main research fields for wireless systems designers. New solutions are requested at the conceptual, circuit, and hardware levels. The aim of this research project is to develop and design new classes of low-power circuits optimised for modern CMOS technologies typically ranging from 0.18um down to 65nm.

In cooperation with Host Institutions, the applicant will investigate various novel circuit and device solutions for modern Systems-On-Chip, like e.g. quasi-floating gate circuits, where MOSFET gates are connected through very large impedance to the power supply and operate below 1V, new CMOS circuits that operate based on transistor sub-threshold or moderate inversion operation, new devices structures that would enable low-power operation such as linear MOS varactors, that help imp roving phase noise properties of LC oscillators, tunnelling FETs (TFETs), and provide more efficient driving capabilities than MOSFETs operating in sub-threshold.

One of the applicant's research objectives is development of new classes of embedded analogue filters for ultra low-power applications working below 1mW. Such filters need quite new architectures and design of ultra low-power active elements. Research solutions will be examined by designing and testing four VLSI Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs), which are accessible in Canada and in Europe. Work in good research teams in Host Institutions will enable the applicant to reach high scientific and personal development.

The experience obtained during fellowship will be used in development o f the VLSI research group at Poznan University of Technology. One of the objectives of OIF is long term international cooperation with Host Institutions, knowledge transfer, and modern industry applications.
