Near Threshold

This paper presents adiabatic flip-flops operating on near-threshold supply voltages. The near-threshold adiabatic flip-flops and sequential circuits are realized with improved CAL (Clocked Adiabatic Logic) circuits using a single-phase power clock. An auxiliary clock generator is used to obtain the non-overlap sinusoidal auxiliary signal pair. A near-threshold mode-10 counter is implemented. All circuits are simulated using Predictive Technology Model (PTM) 45nm process. The near-threshold adiabatic circuits attain large energy savings over a wide range of frequencies, as compared with conventional static CMOS logic circuits.

Low Power Multiplier

Asynchronous adiabatic logic (AAL) is a novel lowpower design technique which combines the energy saving benefits of asynchronous systems with adiabatic benefits. In this paper, energy efficient full adder using double pass transistor with asynchronous adiabatic logic (DPTAAL) is used to design a low power multiplier. Asynchronous adiabatic circuits are very low power circuits to preserve energy for reuse, which reduces the amount of energy drawn directly from the power supply. In this work, an 8×8 multiplier using DPTAAL is designed and simulated, which exhibits low power and reliable logical operations. To improve the circuit performance at reduced voltage level, double pass transistor logic (DPL) is introduced. The power results of the proposed multiplier design are compared with the conventional CMOS implementation. Simulation results show significant improvement in power for clock rates ranging from 100 MHz to 300 MHz.

Adiabatic Computing

Efficiency of adiabatic logic circuits is determined by the adiabatic and non-adiabatic losses incurred by them during the charging and recovery operations. The lesser will be these losses circuit will be more energy efficient. In this paper, a new approach is presented for minimizing power consumption in quasistatic energy recovery logic (QSERL) circuit which involves optimization by removing the nonadiabatic losses completely by replacing the diodes with MOSFETs whose gates are controlled by power clocks. Proposed circuit inherits the advantages of quasistatic ERL (QSERL) family but is with improved power efficiency and driving ability. In order to demonstrate workability of the newly developed circuit, a 4 × 4 bit array multiplier circuit has been designed. A mathematical expression to calculate energy dissipation in proposed inverter is developed. Performance of the proposed logic (improved quasistatic energy recovery logic (IQSERL)) is analyzed and compared with CMOS and reported QSERL in their representative inverters and multipliers in VIRTUOSO SPECTRE simulator of Cadence in 0.18 μm UMC technology. In our proposed (IQSERL) inverter the power efficiency has been improved to almost 20% up to 50 MHz and 300 fF external load capacitance in comparison to CMOS and QSERL circuits.

Scaling Down

With rapid technology scaling down, the energy dissipation of nanometer CMOS circuits is becoming a major concern, because of the increasing sub-threshold leakage in nanometer CMOS processes. This paper introduces a dual threshold CMOS (DTCMOS) technique for CPAL (complementary pass-transistor adiabatic logic) circuits to reduce sub-threshold leakage dissipations. The method to size the transistors of the dual-threshold CPAL gates is also discussed. A full adder using dual-threshold CPAL circuits is realized using 45nm BSIM4 CMOS model. HSPICE simulation results show that leakage dissipations of the CPAL full adder with DTCMOS techniques are reduced compared with the basic CPAL one.

Simulation Results

The leakage dissipations of nano-circuits have become a critical concern. Estimating the leakage power of nano-circuits is very important in low-power design. This paper presents a new estimation technology for the active leakage dissipations of adiabatic logic circuits. Based on the power dissipation models of adiabatic circuits, active leakage dissipations are estimated by testing total leakage dissipations with additional capacitances on load nodes of the adiabatic circuits using HSPICE simulations. Taken as an example, the estimation for dynamic and active leakage power dissipations of CPAL (Complementary Pass-transistor Adiabatic Logic) circuits is demonstrated using the proposed estimation technology. The simulation results show that the proposed estimation technology can accurately estimate the active leakage dissipations of CPAL circuits with an accepted error over a wide range of frequencies.
