Item An artificial bridge circuit approach between two biological neurons using nanoscale topologies towards paralytic disorders(Elsevier Ltd, 2023) Haque, M.N.; Gorre, P.; Naik, D.N.; Kumar, S.; Al-Shidaifat, A.; Song, H.The advent of Nanoscale IC technology towards pulse-based neural systems reactivates the dead nervous about restoring the functionality of paralytic disorders. This work reports in first time a design of a novel CMOS biological neuron system, which replaces a dead neuron between two neurons to restore communication in paralyzed individuals. The work binds into three stages: design of a spiking leaky Integrator and Fire (LIF) neuron with refractory period mechanisms, which achieves a low power consumption of 2.4 μW, in the first stage; an adaptive homeostatic synapse with short and long-term spike plasticity, that reconfigure the spiking neuron networks of multichannel sensor electrodes to record the electric signal from the active cell as second stage; the final stage presents a low-power common source current reuse regulated cascode (CS-CR-RGC) TIA for amplifying the weak synapse current signal, which achieves a high gain of 135.71 dBΩ with an optimized noise performance of 0.19 pA/Hz. The entire work is designed and implemented using a CMOS 65 nm commercial process that occupies a die area of 400 μm × 120 μm. © 2023Item Performance Analysis of Novel Graphene Process Low-Noise Amplifier with Multi-stage Stagger-Tuned Approach over D-band(Springer, 2024) Nandini, P.; Naik, D.N.; Gorre, P.; Gupta, M.P.; Kumar, S.; Al-Shidaifat, A.; Song, H.This work reports an ultra-low noise, multi-stage stagger-tuned low-noise amplifier (MS-ST-LNA) over the D-band performance and achieves a best trade-off between noise, bandwidth, and gain parameters. The ultra-low-noise is achieved in three ways: First, the high-gain 3-stage stagger tuned amplifier (STA) realizes a 3X gain compared to the conventional single-stage amplifier, which sets a low floor noise. Second, the stagger-tuned amplifier achieves 1.6 times lower noise than the traditional single-stage amplifier. Finally, the stagger tune realizes a high-order transfer function, which mitigates the high-frequency noise. The full LNA is implemented and fabricated using a commercial nano-manufacturing 9-nm graphene film FET on a silicon wafer using a 0.065-?m commercial process, occupying an area of 0.21 mm2. The proposed design achieves an optimum performance: a maximum measured gain of 20.5 dB and a minimum noise figure (NF) of 4.2 dB over 123.7 to 162.5 GHz. The proposed LNA consumes ultra-low power consumption of 21.3 mW under the power supply of 1.2 V. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2024.
