Abstract--Design of a suitable power gating (e.g., multithreshold CMOS or super cutoff CMOS) structure is an important and challenging task in sub-90nm VLSI circuits where leakage ...
— Direct tunneling current is the major component of static power dissipation of a CMOS circuit for technology below 65nm, where the gate dielectric (SiO2) is very low. We intuit...

- A low overhead circuit technique is proposed in this paper for simultaneously reducing subthreshold and gate oxide leakage currents in domino logic circuits. PMOS sleep transisto...
When a signal traverses on-chip voltage domains, a level shifter is required. Inverters can handle a high to low voltage shift with minimal leakage. For a low to high voltage leve...
Dual threshold technique has been proposed to reduce leakage power in low voltage and low power circuits by applying a high threshold voltage to some transistors in non-critical p...
