We present a Dynamic VTH Scaling (DVTS) scheme to save the leakage power during active mode of the circuit. The power saving strategy of DVTS is similar to that of the Dynamic VDD...
In this paper, the problem of sizing MOS Current Mode Logic (MCML) circuits is addressed. The Pareto front is introduced as a useful analysis tool to explore the design space of e...

In this paper, we propose a novel on-chip voltage drop reduction technique for on-chip power delivery networks of VLSI systems in the presence of variational leakage current sourc...
Approaches to achieve low-power and high-speed VLSI's are described with the emphasis on techniques across multiple technology and design levels. To suppress the leakage curr...
