Yang Liu's Projects

Network-on-Chip 2D mesh router

February 2012 to June 2012

Team Members: Yang Liu

Designed the router for CMP SOC using RTL Verilog and compiled adequate testbench.

Completed physical implementation Synthesis, Formal Logical Equivalency, Static Timing

Analysis, P&R.

Digital Image Uniform Noise Attenuation

May 2012 to June 2012

Team Members: Yang Liu

Awarded the designer contest winner, Clock Period * Area is almost half of the 2nd

group.

Creatively designed a pipelined methodology to read 4 data from and write 1 data to SRAM,

achieved noise attenuation of 1 pixel only in one clock circle, (1/6 of the original

specification).

Initiated to Combine CS(save)A, CS(select)A, CLA, Manchester Carry Chain to achieved 1.0

ns delay of 4 12bits data adding with load.

Full custom layout design of 1k SRAM, other data pathes and control logic.

Two-Direction Digital Timer Design

November 2011 to January 2012

Team Members: Yang Liu

Awarded the designer contest winner among 73 groups based on Clock Period * Area .

Design is adopted and introduced in course EE577a.

Creatively designed a counter instead of adder/subtractor to minimize the delay on the

critical path.

Redesigned the FSM (reduced two register) to save the logic and the layout s area.

IEEE single-precision floating-point unit

November 2011 to January 2012

Team Members: Yang Liu

Designed a mechanism to accomplish floating-point calculation based on Verilog HDL.

5-Stage-Pipeline Mips CPU Design

September 2011 to December 2011

Team Members: Yang Liu

Designed a 5-stage simple pipelined processor to support in order execution of simple

instructions taking care of RAW and Branch hazards.

Effective Trojan Insertion Method

October 2011 to June 2012

Team Members: Yang Liu

Invented a logic effort based method to minimize the delay and area change as a Trojan

designer.

Proposed a new challenge to the Trojan detector as the delay has been optimally minimized

with Prof. Gupta.

Performance Study of OFDM on Multimode Fiber

August 2008 to June 2011

Team Members: Yang Liu

Excellent graduation Thesis of Beijing University of Posts & Telecommunications.

Conducted optical modulate and demodulate simulation on Optisystem, using component as

MQAM, OFDM, (D)FFT, M-Z inter-ferometer, etc.

Developed a method to judge the O-OFDM MIMO system performance (coordinate graph, eye

pattern).

LR-WPANs Zigbee IC Design

May 2012 to Present

Team Members: Yang Liu

HDL implemented the DSP part of PHY_TX (Spreading, Pulse shaping, multistage

interpolation).

Assisted the verification of the PHY_TX and the whole chip using UVM.

CRC and AES encipher verification on CM0 CPU.
