Abstract— We designed a high-efficiency class-E switchedmode power amplifier for a wireless networked micro-sensors system. In this system, where each sensor operates using a mic...
— Clock-gating and power-gating have proven to be very effective solutions for reducing dynamic and static power, respectively. The two techniques may be coupled in such a way th...

With increasingly smaller feature sizes and higher on-chip densities, the power dissipation of VLSI systems has become a primary concern for designers. This paper first describes...
With scaling down to deep submicron and nanometer technologies, noise immunity is becoming a metric of the same importance as power, speed, and area. Smaller feature sizes, low vo...
