Output Prediction Logic (OPL) is a technique that can be applied to conventional CMOS logic families to obtain considerable speedups. When applied to static CMOS, OPL retains the ...
FinFET devices promise to replace traditional MOSFETs because of superior ability in controlling leakage and minimizing short channel effects while delivering a strong drive curre...
An accurate and efficient stacking effect macro-model for leakage power in sub-100nm circuits is presented in this paper. Leakage power, including subthreshold leakage power and ga...
