A high-speed, low-power divide-by-3/4 prescaler based on an extended true single-phase clock D-flip flop (E-TSPC DFF) is presented. We added two more transistors and a mode control signal to the conventional E-TSPC based divide-by-4 divider to achieve the function of the divide-by-3/4 dual modulus frequency divider. The designed divide-by-3/4 achieved higher speed and lower power operation with mode control compared with the conventional ones. The prescaler was comprised of sixteen transistors and integrates an inverter in the second DFF to provide output directly. The power consumption was minimized due to the reduced number of stages and transistors. In addition, the prescaler operating speed was also improved due to a reduced critical path. We compared the simulation results with conventional E-TSPC based divide-by-3/4 dividers in the same process, where the figure-of-merit (FoM) of the proposed divider was 17.4–75.5% better than conventional ones. We have also fabricated the prescaler in a 40 nm complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process. The measured highest operating frequency was 9 GHz with 0.303 mW power consumption under 1.35 V power supply, which agrees with the simulation well. The measurement results demonstrate that the proposed divider achieves high-speed and low-power operation.

A low power 12-bit, 20 MS/s asynchronously controlled successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to be used in wireless access for vehicular environment (WAVE) intelligent transportation system (ITS) sensor based application is presented in this paper. To optimize the architecture with respect to power consumption and performance, several techniques are proposed. A switching method which employs the common mode charge recovery (CMCR) switching process is presented for capacitive digital-to-analog converter (CDAC) part to lower the switching energy. The switching technique proposed in our work consumes 56.3% less energy in comparison with conventional CMCR switching method. For high speed operation with low power consumption and to overcome the kick back issue in the comparator part, a mutated dynamic-latch comparator with cascode is implemented. In addition, to optimize the flexibility relating to the performance of logic part, an asynchronous topology is employed. The structure is fabricated in 65 nm CMOS process technology with an active area of 0.14 mm2. With a sampling frequency of 20 MS/s, the proposed architecture attains signal-to-noise distortion ratio (SNDR) of 65.44 dB at Nyquist frequency while consuming only 472.2 µW with 1 V power supply.

Speed Performance

Addition is a fundamental operation in microprocessing and digital signal processing hardware, which is physically realized using an adder. The carry-lookahead adder (CLA) and the carry-select adder (CSLA) are two popular high-speed, low-power adder architectures. The speed performance of a CLA architecture can be improved by adopting a hybrid CLA architecture which employs a small-size ripple-carry adder (RCA) to replace a sub-CLA in the least significant bit positions. On the other hand, the power dissipation of a CSLA employing full adders and 2:1 multiplexers can be reduced by utilizing binary-to-excess-1 code (BEC) converters. In the literature, the designs of many CLAs and CSLAs were described separately. It would be useful to have a direct comparison of their performances based on the design metrics. Hence, we implemented homogeneous and hybrid CLAs, and CSLAs with and without the BEC converters by considering 32-bit accurate and approximate additions to facilitate a comparison. For the gate-level implementations, we considered a 32/28 nm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) process targeting a typical-case process–voltage–temperature (PVT) specification. The results show that the hybrid CLA/RCA architecture is preferable among the CLA and CSLA architectures from the speed and power perspectives to perform accurate and approximate additions.

In this paper, presents circuit design of a low-power delay buffer. The proposed delay buffer uses several new techniques to reduce its power consumption. Since delay buffers are accessed sequentially, it adopts a ring-counter addressing scheme. In the ring counter, double-edge-triggered (DET) flip-flops are utilized to reduce the operating frequency by half and the C-element gated-clock strategy is proposed. Both total transistor count and the number of clocked transistors are significantly reduced to improve power consumption and speed in the flip-flop. The number of transistors is reduced by 56%-60% and the Area-Speed-Power product is reduced by 56%-63% compared to other double edge triggered flip-flops. This design is suitable for high-speed, low-power CMOS VLSI design applications.

The purpose of this research is to design a low power integrated complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) detection circuit for charge-modulated field-effect transistor (CMFET) and it is used for the detection of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) hybridization. With the available CMOS technology, it allows the realization of complete systems which integrate the sensing units and transducing elements in the same device. Point-of-care (POC) testing device is a device that allows anyone to operate anywhere and obtain immediate results. One of the important features of POC device is low power consumption because it is normally battery-operated. The power consumption of the proposed integrated CMOS detection circuit requires only 14.87 mW. The detection circuit will amplify the electrical signal that comes from the CMFET to a specified level in order to improve the recording characteristics of the biosensor. Self-cascode topology was used in the drain follower circuit in order to reduce the channel length modulation effect. The proposed detection circuit was designed with 0.18µm Silterra CMOS fabrication process and simulated under Cadence Simulation Tool.

Time Interleaved

This paper presents an eight-channel time-interleaved (TI) 2.6 GS/s 8-bit successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) prototype in a 55-nm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) process. The channel-selection-embedded bootstrap switch is adopted to perform sampling times synchronization using the full-speed master clock to suppress the time skew between channels. Based on the segmented pre-quantization and bypass switching scheme, double alternate comparators clocked asynchronously with background offset calibration are utilized in sub-channel SAR ADC to achieve high speed and low power. Measurement results show that the signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio (SNDR) of the ADC is above 38.2 dB up to 500 MHz input frequency and above 31.8 dB across the entire first Nyquist zone. The differential non-linearity (DNL) and integral non-linearity (INL) are +0.93/−0.85 LSB and +0.71/−0.91 LSB, respectively. The ADC consumes 60 mW from a 1.2 V supply, occupies an area of 400 μm × 550 μm, and exhibits a figure-of-merit (FoM) of 348 fJ/conversion-step.

Chip Area

In this paper, a compact and low-power true single-phase flip-flop (FF) design with fully static operations is presented. The design is developed by using various circuit-reduction schemes and features a hybrid logic style employing both pass transistor logic (PTL) and static complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) logic to reduce circuit complexity. These circuit optimization measures pay off in various aspects, including smaller clock-to-Q (CQ) delay, lower average power, lower leakage power, and smaller layout area; and the transistor-count is only 17. Fabricated in TSMC 180 nm CMOS technology, it reduces by over 29% the chip area compared to the conventional transmission gate FF (TGFF). To further show digital circuit/system level advantages, a multi-mode shift register has been realized. Experimental measurement results at 1.8 V/4 MHz show that, compared with the TGFF design, the proposed design saves 64.7% of power consumption while reducing chip area by 26.2%.
