Multi-corner, energy-delay optimized, NBTI-aware flip-flop design
With the CMOS transistors being scaled to sub 45nm and lower, Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI) has become a major concern due to its impact on PMOS transistor aging pr...

Driving Fully-Adiabatic Logic Circuits Using Custom High-Q MEMS Resonators
To perform digital logic in CMOS in a truly adiabatic (asymptotically thermodynamically reversible) fashion requires that logic transitions be driven by a quasitrapezoidal (flat-t...

Robust Energy-Efficient Adder Topologies
In this paper we explore the relationship between adder topology and energy efficiency. We compare the energy-delay tradeoff curves of selected 32-bit adder topologies, to determi...

Trade-off design of analog circuits using goal attainment and "Wave Front" sequential quadratic programming
One of the main tasks in analog design is the sizing of the circuit parameters, such as transistor lengths and widths, in order to obtain optimal circuit performances, such as hig...
