OverviewThe Digital Integrated Circuits and Systems Group is involved with the design and implementation of various integrated systems ranging from ultra low-power wireless sensors and multimedia devices to high performance processors. The research spans across multiple levels of abstraction ranging from innovative new process technologies and circuit styles to architectures, algorithms, and software technologies. A key focus of this group is developing energy efficient integrated solutions for battery operated systems. |
Platforms for Ultra-Low-Power Biomedical ElectronicsThe Platforms for Ultra-Low-Power Biomedical Electronics team leverages highly digital techniques to increase energy efficiency of circuits and systems used in physiological sensing and activation. The broad scope of the group covers the IC design and platform integration of stimulation circuits, instrumentation front ends, analog-to-digital converters, digital signal processors, electronic textiles, and wireless transceivers. Portable MultimediaThe MIT Portable Multimedia Group (PMMG) is exploring power reduction techniques at various design stages (algorithms, architectures and circuits) of the video CODEC. An effective method of reducing power involves the combination of aggressive voltage scaling and increased parallelism and pipelining to maintain performance. Additional architectural optimizations for power reduction such as reducing memory accesses and multiple frequency/voltage domains are also investigated. More active and completed projects... |
