Minimizing power consumption is one of the most important objectives in IC design. Resizing gates and assigning different Vt’s are common ways to meet power and timing budgets. ...
Power dissipation is quickly becoming one of the most important limiters in nanometer IC design for leakage increases exponentially as the technology scaling down. However, power ...
Thispaper proposes a method for achieving low-power control-logic modules using a combination of CMOS complex gate reorganization, transistor size optimization, and transistor lay...
