Two new design techniques to implement tristate circuits in positive feedback source-coupled logic (PFSCL) have been proposed. The first one is a switch-based technique while the second is based on the concept of sleep transistor. Different tristate circuits based on both techniques have been developed and simulated using 0.18 μm CMOS technology parameters. A performance comparison indicates that the tristate PFSCL circuits based on sleep transistor technique are more power efficient and achieve the lowest power delay product in comparison to CMOS-based and the switch-based PFSCL circuits.

A novel micro-power current sense amplifier employing a cross-coupled current-mirror configuration is presented. The circuit is designed for low-voltage low-power SRAM applications. Its sensing speed is independent of the bit-line capacitances and is almost insensitive to the data-line capacitances. Extensive post-layout simulation results based on a 1.8 V/0.18 μm CMOS technology from Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing Ltd. (CHRT) have verified that the new sense amplifier promises a much sought-after power-efficient advantage and a note-worthy power-delay product superiority over the conventional and recently reported sense amplifier circuits. These attributes of the proposed sense amplifier make it judiciously appropriate for use in the contemporary high-complexity regime, which incessantly craves for low-power characteristics.

One of the paramount issues in the field of VLSI design is the rapid increase in power consumption. Therefore, it is necessary to develop power-efficient circuits. Here, three new simple architectures are presented for a Dynamic Double Edge Triggered Flip-flop named as Transistor Count Reduction Flip-flop, S-TCRFF (Series Stacking in TCRFF) and FST in TCRFF (Forced Stacking of Transistor in TCRFF). The first one features a dynamic design comprising of transmission gate in which total transistor count has greatly reduced without affecting the logic, thereby attaining better power and speed performance. For the reduction of static power, two types of stacking called series and forced transistor stacking are applied. The circuits are simulated using Cadence Virtuoso in 45[Formula: see text]nm CMOS technology with a power supply of 1[Formula: see text]V at 500[Formula: see text]MHz when input switching activity is 25%. The simulated results indicated that the new designs (TCRFF, S-TCRFF and FST in TCRFF) excelled in different circuit performance indices like Power-Delay-Product (PDP), Energy-Delay-Product (EDP), average and leakage power with less layout area compared with the performance of nine recently proposed FF designs. The improvement in PDPdq value was up to 89.2% (TCRFF), 89.9% (S-TCRFF) and 90.3% (FST in TCRFF) with conventional transmission gate FF (TGFF).

A power-efficient, voltage gain enhancement technique for op-amps has been described. The proposed technique is robust against Process, Voltage and Temperature (PVT) variations. It exploits a positive feedback-based gain enhancement technique without any latch-up issue, as opposed to the previously proposed conductance cancellation techniques. In the proposed technique, four additional transconductance-stages (gm stages) are used to boost the gain of the main gm stage. The additional gm stages do not significantly increase the power dissipation. A prototype was designed in 65[Formula: see text]nm CMOS technology. It results in 81[Formula: see text]dB voltage gain, which is 21[Formula: see text]dB higher than the existing gain-boosting technique. The proposed op-amp works with as low a power supply as 0.8[Formula: see text]V, without compromising the performance, whereas the traditional gain-enhancement techniques start losing gain below a 1.1[Formula: see text]V supply. The circuit draws a total static current of 295[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]A and occupies 5000[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m2 of silicon area.

This paper presents an all-digital delay locked loop (ADDLL) that uses asynchronous-deskewing technology and achieves low power/voltage, small jitter, fast locking, and high process, voltage, and temperature (PVT)-variation tolerance. The measurement results show that the maximum frequency is 100 MHz at 0.35 V with 19 μW power dissipation, 62 ps peak-to-peak jitter, and 3 locking cycles. When operated at 0.5 V, the measured maximal operating clock frequency is 450 MHz with 12 ps peak-to-peak jitter, 6 locking cycles and 119 μW power dissipation. The ADDLL is fabricated with 55 nm CMOS technology, and the active area is only 0.019 mm2.

To develop low-power, high-speed and area-efficient design for portable electronics devices and signal processing applications is a very challenging task. Multiplier has an important role in digital signal processing. Reducing the power consumption of multiplier will bring significant power reduction and other associated advantages in the overall digital system. In this paper, a low-power and area-efficient two-dimensional bypassing multiplier is presented. In two-dimensional bypassing, row and column are bypassed and thus the switching power is saved. Simulation results are realized using UMC 90[Formula: see text]nm CMOS technology and 0.9[Formula: see text]V, with Cadence Spectre simulation tool. The proposed architecture is compared with the existing multiplier architectures, i.e., Braun’s multiplier, row bypassing multiplier, column bypassing multiplier and row and column bypassing multiplier. Performance parameters of the proposed multiplier are better than the existing multipliers in terms of area occupation, power dissipation and power-delay product. These results are obtained for randomly generated input test patterns having uniform distribution probability.

This paper presents Dual Edge Triggered (DET) master slave D-Type flip flops for glitch free, low power, low delay, low silicon area and low Power Delay Product (PDP). This DET master slave D-Type flip flops are compared against the existing DET flip flops using 45nm & 180nm CMOS technology which has been simulated using Cadence Virtuoso. The proposed DET master slave D-Type flip flops has reduced the number of transistors in use for operation, which leads to low glitch, low power and low delay design. Paper consist glitch free DET master slave D-Type flip flops analysis for power, delay and PDP. The proposed DET flip flop is also simulated and implemented for 18nm Fin-FET in Cadence Tool.
