Resumen:
In this paper, we present validation and testing results of an ASIC that implements a piecewise linear (PWL) architecture. Methodologies for power consumption and maximum operation frequency estimation, based on laboratory measurements, are described. A specification for a debug package feature, which was introduced into the PWL design for proper silicon validation, is also explained.
