Circuit Design Research
The Chair of Highly Parallel VLSI-System and Neuromicroelectronics
does research in deep-submicron highly integrated circuit
design ("chip design"). Our focus is on application and design of
digital, mixed-signal and neuromorphic integrated circuits and systems.
Research
The key research aspects of the Chair of Highly Parallel VLSI-System and
Neuromicroelectronics are all new systematic concepts in the field of
elctronic circuit design. The research includes the classical microelectronic
circuit design (Systems on Chip, SoC) as well as neuromorphic circuit design
ideas, inspired by biology.
The SoC-circuit design technology scales down to 28nm resp. 22nm structures.
Actual research projects of the Chair deal with the special requirements
caused by these small structures, very low operating voltages and the strong
variations of the device properties.
The Chair of Highly Parallel VLSI-System and Neuromicroelectronics was already participating within leading edge research projects on the field of biological inspired information processing ("FACETS", "BrainScales"). These works are continued within the european flagship research project "Human Brain Projekt".
