Synergistic Distributed Thermal Regulation for On-CMOS High-Throughput Multimodal Amperometric DNA-Array Analysis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Accurate temperature regulation is critical for amperometric DNA analysis to achieve high fidelity, reliability, and throughput. In this work, a 9×6 cell array of mixed-signal CMOS distributed temperature regulators for on-CMOS multi-modal amperometric DNA analysis is presented. Three DNA analysis methods are supported, including constant potential amperometry (CPA), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and impedance spectroscopy (IS). In-cell heating and temperature sensing elements are implemented in standard CMOS technology without post-processing. Using proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control, the local temperature can be regulated to within ± 0.5∘C of any desired value between 20∘C and 90∘C. To allow the in-cell integration of independent PID control, a new mixed-signal design is proposed, where the two computationally intensive operations in the PID algorithm, multiplication, and subtraction, are performed by an in-cell dual-slope multiplying ADC, resulting in a small area and low power consumption. Over 95% of the circuit blocks are synergistically shared among the four operating modes, including CPA, CV, IS, and the proposed temperature regulation mode. A 3mm×3mm CMOS prototype fabricated in a 0.13μm CMOS technology has been fully experimentally characterized. The proposed distributed temperature regulation design and the mixed-signal PID implementation can be applied to a wide range of sensory and other applications.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
