Low-Power Digital VLSI Design: Circuits and Systems addresses both process technologies and device modeling. Power dissipation in CMOS circuits, several practical circuit examples, and low-power techniques are discussed. Low-voltage issues for digital CMOS and BiCMOS circuits are emphasized. The book also provides an extensive study of advanced CMOS subsystem design. A low-power design methodology is presented with various power minimization techniques at the circuit, logic, architecture and algorithm levels. Features: Lowvoltage CMOS device modeling, technology files, design rules Switching activity concept, lowpower guidelines to engineering practice Passtransistor logic families Power dissipation of I/O circuits Multi and lowVT CMOS logic, static power reduction circuit techniques State of the art design of lowvoltage BiCMOS and CMOS circuits Lowpower techniques in CMOS SRAMS and DRAMS Lowpower onchip voltage down converter design Numerous advanced CMOS subsystems (e.g. adders, multipliers, data path, memories, regular structures, phaselocked loops) with several design options trading power, delay and area Lowpower design methodology, power estimation techniques Power reduction techniques at the logic, architecture and algorithm levels More than 190 circuits explained at the transistor level.
