Writing for electronic and computer engineers as well as senior undergraduates and graduate students, they take into consideration current developments in integrated circuit processing as they describe synchronization and arbitration, metastability and its measurement, circuits, noise and its effects, synchronizers in systems, networks and interconnects, clocks that can stop or pause, arbitration (including simple and multi-way arbiters) and priority arbiters.
The 0-In CDC tool provides a three-fold verification approach for clock domain crossings, checking for appropriate synchronization through structural analysis, protocol verification, and accurate simulation of metastability effects.
The papers are presented in sections covering defects and metastability, solar cells, alloys, electronics on flexible substrates, novel applications, thin film transistors, images and sensors, crystallization techniques, and thin film growth.
