Asymmetrical length biasing for energy efficient digital circuits

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

In this work we propose an asymmetrical length biasing scheme to be used in advanced nanometer technologies that minimizes the energy per operation consumption of sub/near threshold digital CMOS circuits. Simulation results show that by using this sizing methodology, the energy per operation can be reduced more than 50% in a wide range of target performances. We used a 28nm UTBB FDSOI technology and we show that the combination of supply voltage scaling, back plane biasing and length biasing can be combined to obtain extremely energy efficient digital circuits.
