In this paper the performance analysis of CNTFET inverter under the variation of temperature and oxide thickness presented. The influence of variation of parameters on the characteristics of CNTFET inverter is simulated and analyzed using H-SPICE tool and Stanford nano model-39 of CNTFET. It's been observed that the effect of change in temperature and oxide thickness has little effect on rise and...
Single-electron transistors (SETs) are considered as the attractive candidates for post-COMS VLSI due to their ultra-small size and low power consumption. And many researchers have proposed many logic units based on SETs. Through the analysis and simulation of the body-voltage effect of SET, for the first time, we propose a reconfigurable SET logic gate (RSETLG) based on the control of body-voltage...
Polymorphic gates can be considered as a new reconfigurable technology capable of integrating logic functions with sensing in a single compact structure. Polymorphic gates whose logic function can be controlled by the level of the power supply voltage (Vdd) represent a special class of polymorphic gates. A new polymorphic NAND/NOR gate controlled by Vdd is presented. This gate was fabricated and utilized...
With the event of nanoscale technologies, new physical phenomena and technological limitations are increasing the process variability and its impact on circuit yield and performances. Like combinatory cells, the sequential cells also suffer of variations, impacting their timing characteristics. Regarding the timing behaviors, setup and hold time violation probabilities are increasing. This article...
While the CMOS analog circuits can be designed with the minimum-gate-length of the fabrication process in the alpha-power law MOSFET model, the length of a MOSFET gate has been chosen to be a larger scale than the minimum-gate-length in the conventional Shockleypsilas square model. In this paper, we describe a 6-b 100 MSPS CMOS current steering digital-to-analog converter (DAC) with the alpha-power...
Current mode (CM) scheme provides suitable alternative for the high speed on-chip interconnect signaling. This paper presents a energy-delay optimization methodology for the current-mode (CM) signaling scheme. Optimization for the CM circuits for on-chip interconnects requires a joint optimization of driver and receiver device sizes, as their parameters which affect the energy-delay performance depend...
This paper studies the impact of intra-die random variability on low-power digital circuit designs, specifically, circuit timing failures due to intra-die variability. We identify a new low-Vdd statistical failure mode that is strongly supply-voltage dependent and also introduce a simple yet novel method for quantifying the effects of process variability on digital timing - a delay overlapping stage...
This paper describes a design flow for the circuit-level optimization of a technology. The concurrent exploration of device characteristics and library design choices leads to a more application-optimal technology. We illustrate the design flow by: 1) analyzing the impact of buffer cell design, and 2) by optimizing a 130 nm technology for low operational power.
