Du, D. (author), Han, S. (author), Qi, Naiming (author), Ammar, Haitham Bou (author), Wang, Jun (author), Pan, W. (author)Reinforcement learning (RL) exhibits impressive performance when managing complicated control tasks for robots. However, its wide application to physical robots is limited by the absence of strong safety guarantees. To overcome this challenge, this paper explores the control Lyapunov barrier function (CLBF) to analyze the safety and reachability...conference paper 2023

(author), Alon, Elad (author)We present a ring-oscillator-based sub-sampling phase-locked loop (PLL) using a generator-based design flow. A hybrid loop with a delta-sigma ($\Delta \Sigma$) modulator is applied to reduce the loop filter (LF) area and the control ripple. The generator automatically produces the ring oscillator and PLL to meet the provided specifications. The...conference paper 2022
