Energy recovery clocking has been demonstrated as an effective method for reducing the clock power. In this method the conventional square wave clock signal is replaced by a sinusoidal clock generated by a resonant circuit. Such a modification in clock signal prevents application of existing clock gating solutions. In this paper, we propose a clock gating solution for energy recovery clocking by gating the flip-flops. Applying our clock gating to the energy recovery clocked flip-flops reduces their power by 1000X in the idle mode with negligible power and delay overhead in the active mode. Applying the proposed clock gating technique to a system of 1000 flip-flops with idle mode probability and data switching activity of 50%, reduces the total power by 47%. We also propose a negative edge triggering solution for the energy recovery clocked flip-flops.
