The invention relates to devices and methods of maintaining the current starved delay at a constant value across variations in voltage and temperature to increase the speed of operation of the sequential logic in the radiation hardened ASIC design.

Radiation hardened structured ASIC platform with compensation of delay for temperature and voltage variations for multiple redundant temporal voting latch technology

The invention relates to an improved K-Delta-1-Sigma Modulators (KG1Ss) that achieve multi GHz sampling rates with 90 nm and 45 nm CMOS processes, and that provide the capability to balance performance with power in many applications. The improved KD1Ss activate all paths when high performance is needed (e.g. high bandwidth), and reduce the effective bandwidth by shutting down multiple paths when low performance is required. The improved KD1Ss can adjust the baseband filtering for lower bandwidth, and can provide large savings in power consumption while maintaining the communication link, which is a great advantage in space communications. The improved KD1Ss herein provides a receiver that adjusts to accommodate a higher rate when a packet is received at a low bandwidth, and at a initial lower rate, power is saved by turning off paths in the KD1S Analog to Digital Converter, and where when a higher rate is required, multiple paths are enabled in the KD1S to accommodate the higher band widths.

The invention relates to devices and methods which implement a reconfigurable network-on-a-chip (NoC) multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) architecture which fully implements a 4&#xd7;4 MIMO OFDM receiver and transmitter, which has a radiation hardened phase-locked loop (PLL) that provides a 1 GHz or 500 MHz clock to a NoC switch fabric, and at least two NoC Clusters on said NoC switch fabric, an Up/Down conversion cluster and a main MIMO OFDM and Single Carrier system cluster.
