This paper presents a voltage similarity circuit (bump circuit) based on a novel voltage correlator. The proposed circuit is characterized by a power consumption which depends on the similarity between the two inputs. The sensitivity of the bump circuit and the power consumption are at the highest values when the inputs are equal. As the similarity between the input voltages decreases, the total current consumption decreases with a bell-shaped behavior. The proposed bump circuit is very simple in design, made of a new voltage correlator circuit in combination with a differential pair and mimics the behavior of the classical bump circuit. The voltage correlator was implemented using AMS−350nm CMOS technology. Simulation and measurement results suggests that a low power consumption may be achieved if the circuit is used in applications where the input signals have large dissimilarity for most of the circuit operation.

SM4 is a 128-bit block cipher used in SOC and smart cards to ensure the safety of data transmission. In order to realize a low power implementation of the SM4 cipher block, some S-boxes were evaluated firstly and we proposed a new architecture of SM4 S-box called MUX S-box with a power consumption of 13.92W@10Mhz on SMIC 0.18m technology, Meanwhile, the implementation of SM4 cipher round based on the SM4 MUX S-box was completed and a low power consumption of 0.33mW @ 10 MHz on 0.18 m CMOS technology is achieved.

The sensing module that converts physical or chemical stimuli into electrical signals is the core of future smart electronics in the post-Moore era. Challenges lie in the realization and integration of different detecting functions on a single chip. We propose a new design of on-chip construction for low-power consumption sensor, which is based on the optoelectronic detection mechanism with external stimuli and compatible with CMOS technology. A combination of flipped silicon nanomembrane phototransistors and stimuli-responsive materials presents low-power consumption (CMOS level) and demonstrates great functional expansibility of sensing targets, e.g., hydrogen concentration and relative humidity. With a device-first, wafer-compatible process introduced for large-scale silicon flexible electronics, our work shows great potential in the development of flexible and integrated smart sensing systems for the realization of Internet of Things applications.

The design of a high frequency (L Band), low power (2.75mW) Phase Lock Loops with a 350nm Complementary Metal Oxide Semi Conductor (CMOS) technology has been represented. The comparison of Current Starved Voltage Controlled Oscillator (CSVCO) and Differential pair VCO is performed and analyzed for low power and high frequency analysis respectively. Each component of Phase Lock Loop (PLL) is designed with 350nm CMOS technology in Design Architect Integrated Circuit Station by Mentor Graphics (Eldo-Net) as simulator. In this paper both the standard configurations have been simulated under the same environment and results are analyzed for two most important Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI)constraints, Speed (High frequency range) and Power consumption. The high speed and locking performance of the Differential pair VCO has been evaluated against the lower power consumption benefit of CSVCO.

We present a compact and low-power rank-order searching (ROS) circuit that can be used for building associative memories and rank-order filters (ROFs) by employing time-domain computation and floating-gate MOS techniques. The architecture inherits the accuracy and programmability of digital implementations as well as the compactness and low-power consumption of analog ones. We aim to implement identification function as the first priority objective. Filtering function would be implemented once the location identification function has been carried out. The prototype circuit was designed and fabricated in a 0.18 μm CMOS technology. It consumes only 132.3 μW for an eight-input demonstration case.

A 5-bit 500-MS/s time-domain flash ADC is presented. The proposed ADC consists of a reference resistor ladder, two voltage-to-time converter arrays, a time-domain comparator array and a digital encoder without sample-and-hold. In order to achieve low-power consumption with high conversion-speed and to enhance design reusability in terms of a highly digital implementation with more regular mask patterns, the time-domain comparison is devised in the flash ADC. The prototype has been implemented and fabricated in a standard 0.18 μm CMOS technology and occupies 0.132 mm2 without pads. The measured SNDR and SFDR up to the Nyquist frequency are 26.6 dB and 35.1 dB, respectively. And the peak DNL and INL are measured as 0.43 LSB and 0.58 LSB, respectively. The prototype consumes 8 mW with a 1.8-V supply voltage.

<p>As CMOS technology is continuously becoming smaller and smaller in nanoscale regimes, and circuit resistance to changes in the process for the design of the circuit is a major obstacle. Storage elements such as memory and flip-flops are particularly vulnerable to the change process. Power consumption is also another challenge in today's Digital IC Design. In modern processors, there are a large number of transistors, more than a billion transistors, which increases the temperature and the breakdown of its performance. Therefore, circuit design with low power consumption is a critical need for integrated circuits today. In this study, we deal with GDI techniques for designing logic and arithmetic circuits. We show that this logic in addition to low power consumption has little complexity so that arithmetic and logic circuits can be implemented with fewer transistors. Various circuits such as adders, differentiation and multiplexers, etc. have been designed and implemented using these techniques, and published in various articles. In this study, we review and evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of these circuits.</p>
