چکیده

In this paper we present ultra low-voltage (ULV) floating-gate (FG) CMOS differential analog inverters. The analog inverters may operate with a supply voltage below 1V with programmable current levels. The current level or rather the effective threshold voltage in FG-circuits can be programmed to appropriate values for different applications. The analog inverters presented in this paper may be used in ULV transconductance amplifiers. The effects of power supply noise are thoroughly discussed. Simulated data (spice) is provided.

Novel High-Speed and Ultra-Low-Voltage CMOS NAND and NOR Domino Gates

In this paper we present novel ultra-low-voltage and high-speed CMOS NAND and NOR gates. For supply voltages below 500mV the delay for an ultra-low-voltage NAND2 gate is approximately 10% of a complementary CMOS inverter. Furthermore, the delay variations due to mismatch are much lesser than for conventional CMOS. Differential domino gates for AND2/NAND2 and OR2/NOR2 operation are presented. Ul...

Reliability 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.
