The threat of hardware reverse engineering is a growing concern for a large number of
applications. A main defense strategy against reverse engineering is hardware obfuscation …

The rise of machine learning (ML) has introduced many opportunities for computer-aided-
design, VLSI design, and their intersection. Related to computer-aided design, we review …

Pulsed-latches emerge as an ideal sequencing element for low power digital circuit design,
serving as an alternative of flip-flops. In this paper, low power multi-bit pulsed-latches are …

In order to achieve high tolerance against process, voltage, and temperature variations in
the ultralow voltage (ULV) circuits, in situ error detection and correction (EDAC) techniques …

Excessive timing margins are usually added in the wide-voltage-range design due to
process, voltage and temperature (PVT) variations, which can be eliminated by adaptive …

Flip-flops are the most used sequential elements in synchronous circuits, but designs based
on latches can operate at higher frequencies and occupy less area. Techniques to increase …

This paper presents a methodology and chip demonstration to design near-/sub-threshold
voltage (Vt) pipelines using pulsed latches that are clocked at very wide pulses. Pulsed-latch …

Pulsed latches are gaining increased visibility in low-power ASIC designs. They provide an
alternative sequential element with high performance and low area and power consumption …

A pulsed-latch can be modeled as a fast flip-flop. This allows conventional flip-flop designs
to be migrated to pulsed-latch versions by simple replacement to reduce the clocking power …

Latches have the advantages of timing-borrowing, smaller cell area, lower input
capacitance, and lower power compared to flip-flops (FFs). This article presents a CAD flow …
