Digital Application Specific Integrated Circuit Design

Single radiation effects can be transient and static. The charge collected from radiation has a prompt (drift) and a slow (diffusion) component. This current spike causes disparate results: SEU, SET, SEB, MBU, and more. A system level SEE mitigation technique, used to overcome, is the triple module redundancy (TMR). TMR for system Verilog (TMR4SV), written in Python, is the first step towards design IP triplication. It allows various triplication methods for flip flops, clocks, and logic.

Ultra-high Bandwidth, Ultra-high Dynamic Range X-Ray Shock Characterization via Photonic Integrated Circuit

Nuclear weapon component assessment tests at the Z Machine rely on accurate X-ray yield measurements for model validation, design and analysis of component survivability, and source optimization. Yield measurement devices currently used do not provide the requisite certainty to enable accurate and efficient data analysis of test results, which leads to an increase in Z-shots required for evaluation, longer device development times, and higher operation costs. Additionally, current X-ray flux detectors lack high temporal resolution at the tails. Similarly, shock measurement techniques used for component assessment often lack the ability to spatially resolve wave behavior thereby limiting the ability to measure shock propagation dynamics needed to design the next generation of ND components. Here we present the development of a photonic micro-calorimeter and shock sensor consisting of meter-long waveguide spirals that are optomechanically coupled to X-ray absorbing layers to characterize yield and shock propagation at nanosecond timescales.

Self-correcting, synchronizing ring counter using integrated circuit devices

Three nand gate circuits are used to add error detection and reset logic circuitry for initiating and retaining the correct binary state in the flip-flop circuits of a ring counter. As the input signals are counted, the position of the specified state moves in ordered sequence around circuit loop.

Integrated circuit random-access memory decoder

Decoder circuit with complementary-symmetry circuit configuration composed of MOS and n-p-n bipolar devices minimizes power consumption. Emitter-follower drive scheme results in low power dissipation and high speed operation.
