Sleep transistor insertion is one of today’s most promising and widely adopted solutions for controlling stand-by leakage power in nanometer circuits. Although single-cycle powe...
The scaling of CMOS technology into the nanometer era enables the fabrication of highly integrated systems, which increasingly contain analog and/or RF parts. However, scaling into...
- The Multi-Threshold CMOS (MTCMOS) technology has become a popular technique for standby power reduction. This technology utilizes high-Vth sleep transistors to reduce subthreshol...
-- Aggressive CMOS scaling results in low threshold voltage and thin oxide thickness for transistors manufactured in deep submicron regime. As a result, reducing the subthreshold a...
We present a Dynamic VTH Scaling (DVTS) scheme to save the leakage power during active mode of the circuit. The power saving strategy of DVTS is similar to that of the Dynamic VDD...
