— The work presented in this paper is about the design of current-controlled oscillators (ICO). Two ICOs are proposed. Aiming at reducing the duration of the short-circuit curren...
In this paper, we consider the problem of maximizing the battery life (or duration of service) in battery-powered CMOS circuits. We first show that the battery efficiency (or utili...
Straining of silicon improves mobility of carriers resulting in speed enhancement for transistors in CMOS technology. Traditionally, silicon straining is applied in a similar ad-h...
Designing an energy efficient power gating structure is an important and challenging task in Multi-Threshold CMOS (MTCMOS) circuit design. In order to achieve a very low power des...
