Technology Scaling And Low Power Design Techniques

Abstract

Scaling the feature size of transistor made a remarkable advancement in silicon industry. The demand for power-sensitive design has grown significantly in recent years due to growth in portable applications. The need for power-efficient design techniques is increasing. Various efficient design techniques have been proposed to reduce both dynamic as well as static power in state-of-the-art VLSI applications. In this paper, different circuit design techniques both static and dynamic are discussed that reduce the power consumption.
