Analysis of the Influence of the Parameters of the Pendulum Mechanism of the Swashplate Engine on the Dynamic Performance by Deng Tao, Zheng Yuwei, Zhang Yuxiao, Liu Ping

“…The results show that when the number of cylinders is selected as the independent variable, the inclination angle of the swashplate decreases gradually from 29.93° to 14.26°, and the average deviation of speed is the smallest when the number of cylinders is 7, which is 0.005 4 r/min; the average displacement of the swashplate centroid on <italic>x</italic>-axis and <italic>y</italic>-axis is also the smallest, which are -0.005 9 mm and -0.016 7 mm respectively; the average displacement on the <italic>z</italic>-axis is 0.038 8 mm, which is not the minimum value, but the offset amplitude is smaller. …”

A 7-nm-Based 5R4W High-Timing Reliability Regfile Circuit by Wanlong Zhao, Yuejun Zhang, Liang Wen, Pengjun Wang

“…First, the scheme analyzed the principles of timing errors such as read/write conflicts, write errors, and read errors in the Regfile circuit; then adopted the timing separation method of independent control of the read/write process by clock double edges to solve multiport read/write conflicts, designed a mirror memory check circuit to avoid write errors caused by the word line delays, and used a phase-locked clock feedback structure to eliminate read errors caused by the data timing fluctuations; in the TSMC 7 nm FinFET process, a 64 × 74-bit 5R4W Regfile circuit was implemented using a fully customized layout. …”
