Ultra Low Energy CMOS Logic Using Below-Threshold Dual-Voltage Supply
This paper investigates subthreshold voltage operation of digital circuits. Starting from the previously known single supply voltage for minimum energy per cycle, we further lower the energy consumption by using dual subthreshold supplies. Level converters, commonly used in the above threshold design, are found to be unacceptably slow for subthreshold voltage operation. Therefore, special const...
متن کاملSupply and Threshold Voltage Scaling for Low Power CMOS
This paper investigates the effect of lowering the supply and threshold voltages on the energy efficiency of CMOS circuits. Using a first-order model of the energy and delay of a CMOS circuit, we show that lowering the supply and threshold voltage is generally advantageous, especially when the transistors are velocity saturated and the nodes have a high activity factor. In fact, for modern subm...
متن کاملReliability of High Speed Ultra Low Voltage Differential CMOS Logic
In this paper, we present a solution to the ultra low voltage inverter by adding a keeper transistor in order to make the semi-floating-gate more stable and to reduce the current dissipation. Moreover, we also present a differential ULV inverter and elaborate on the reliability and fault tolerance of the gate. The differential ULV gate compared to both a former ULV gate and standard CMOS are gi...

The operation of digital circuits from power supply voltage of the order of 200mv or less imposes that, in general MOSFETs biased in the sub threshold regime, characterized by the exponential relation between the control voltages and the current. In this paper we analyze some of the basic building blocks of digital circuits operating in the sub threshold region. We analyze the basic CMOS invert...
متن کاملAn ultra-low-voltage ultra-low-power CMOS active mixer
The scaling of CMOS technology has greatly influenced the design of analog and radio-frequency circuits. In particular, as technology advances, due to the use of lower supply voltage the available voltage headroom is decreased. In this paper, after a brief overview of conventional low-power CMOS active mixer structures, we introduce an active mixer structure with sub-mW-level power consumption ...
