Low power VLSI circuit design is one of the most important issues in present day technology. One of the ways of reducing power in a CMOS circuit is to reduce the number of transit...
We present a low-power sine-output Direct Digital Frequency Synthesizer (DDFS) realized in 0.18 µm CMOS that achieves 60 dBc spectral purity from DC to the Nyquist frequency. No ...
Abstract-- This paper presents an adaptive technique for compensating manufacturing and environmental variability in subthreshold circuits using "canary flip-flop" that c...
- The power gating technique is useful in reducing standby leakage current, but it increases the gate delay. For a functional unit, its maximum allowable delay (for a target clock ...
Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) is known to be one of the most efficient techniques for power reduction of integrated circuits. Efficient low voltage DC-DC conversion is a key enabl...
