Power consumption has gained much saliency in circuit design recently. One design problem is modelled as ”Under a timing constraint, to minimize power as much as possible”. Pr...
- This paper investigates substrate noise influence on circuit performance in a variable thresholdvoltage scheme (VT scheme) where threshold voltage is dynamically varied by substr...
: Due to exponential increase in subthreshold leakage with technology scaling and temperature increase, leakage power is becoming a major fraction of total power in the active mode...
