摘要:Multithreshold CMOS is very effective for reducing standby leakage power during long periods ofinactivity. Recently, a power-gating scheme to support multiple poweroff modes and reduce the leakage power duringshort periods of inactivity. This scheme is highly sensitive to process variations. Therefore,we propose a clock gatingtechnique that is tolerant to process variations and scalable to more than two intermediate power-off modes. The clockgating improves the design architecture and reduces the delay, area and power consumption. In addition, it can becombined with existing techniques to offer further static power reduction benefits. The analysis and simulation resultsdemonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design.
