Mixed Vt has been widely used to control leakage without affecting circuit performance. However, current approaches target the combinational circuits even though sequential elemen...
We present a new technique to examine the trade-off regions of a circuit where its competing performances become “simultaneously optimal”, i.e. Pareto optimal. It is based on ...
We investigate techniques to design 45nm minimum-energy subthreshold CMOS circuits under timing constraints, considering the practical case of an 8-bit multiplier. We first show ...
Reducing power dissipation is one of the most principle subjects in VLSI design today. Scaling causes subthreshold leakage currents to become a large component of total power diss...

Electrothermal couplings between supply voltage, operating frequency, power dissipation and die temperature have been shown to significantly impact the energy-delay-product (EDP) ...
