The delay caused by global interconnects plays a critical role in the performance of VLSI circuits, particularly for transmission effects in nano scales. This paper presents an analytical formulation for the delay of tapered partitioning scheme of buffer insertion in long global interconnects. The inductive effects have been taken into account in RLC delay expressions. Because of complexity of the...
In this paper we present a novel ultra-low-voltage (ULV) CMOS flip-flop. The ULV flip-flop offers increased speed compared to other FF's for low supply voltages. The pulse generator (PG) circuit in a conventional sense amplifier SAFF is replaced by a high-speed tristate edge generator (EG) with a rise- and fall-time less than 1/10 of an inverter operating with the same supply voltage. In essence the...
Voltage reduction is a very widely used low-power technique (as reducing dynamic power quadratically, and leakage power linearly) which does sacrifice performance. An alternate technique, which is much less explored/investigated, is to rely on currents instead. The paper presents a thorough but still preliminary comparison of a recently introduced CMOS design technique which limits/reduces currents,...
