Circuits optimized for minimum energy consumption operate typically in the subthreshold regime with ultra-low power-supply voltages. Speed of a subthreshold logic circuit is enhan...
Power gating has been widely used to reduce subthreshold leakage. However, its efficiency degrades very fast with technology scaling due to the gate leakage of circuits specific t...

— Scaling of CMOS technologies has led to dramatic increase in sub-threshold, gate and reverse biased junction band-to-band-tunneling (BTBT) leakage. Leakage current has now beco...
The theoretical lower limit of subthreshold swing in MOSFETs (60 mV/decade) significantly restricts low voltage operation since it results in a low ON to OFF current ratio at low ...
