In this proposed work, a low offset voltage (mV) and high speed voltage comparator circuit is designed and simulated. With the unceasing rise of various wireless portable communication systems, high speed transceiver circuits, and high speed memory circuit design, sensitized sensor technologies, and wireless sensor network design, the design of high speed, low offset voltage and low power operated comparators are indispensable blocks in the design of a very good analog to digital converter architecture. The proposed work does not entail the usage of any pre-amplification stages, which accounts for the direct reduction of current consumption and silicon area. The MOSFETs at the input differential pair stage of the CMOS comparator circuit are designed to operate in near sub-threshold region rather than in saturation region to account for the low power consumption. The proposed double tail dynamic latched comparator in this work is implemented in 90μm CMOS technology with the operating power supply voltage (VDD) of 1.2 V and sampling frequency of 600 MHz using Microwind EDA tool. The simulated results indicate that the total power consumption is calculated to be of the order of 126.3μw with the delay of 876ps. From the obtained results, the proposed double tail dynamic latched circuit has considerably lowered both the propagation delay time and power consumption, when compared to the previous works.

In this paper, we propose a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor (CIS) that has built-in mask circuits to selectively capture either edge-detection images or normal 8-bit images for low-power computer vision applications. To detect the edges of images in the CIS, neighboring column data are compared in in-column memories after column-parallel analog-to-digital conversion with the proposed mask. The proposed built-in mask circuits are implemented in the CIS without a complex image signal processer to obtain edge images with high speed and low power consumption. According to the measurement results, edge images were successfully obtained with a maximum frame rate of 60 fps. A prototype sensor with 1920 × 1440 resolution was fabricated with a 90-nm 1-poly 5-metal CIS process. The area of the 4-shared 4T-active pixel sensor was 1.4 × 1.4 µm2, and the chip size was 5.15 × 5.15 mm2. The total power consumption was 9.4 mW at 60 fps with supply voltages of 3.3 V (analog), 2.8 V (pixel), and 1.2 V (digital).

There is an immense necessity of several kilo bytes of embedded memory for Biomedical systems which typically operate in the sub-threshold domain with perfect efficiency. SRAMs (Static Random Access Memory) dominates the total power consumption and the overall silicon area, as 70% of the die has been occupied by them. This brief proposes the design of a Transmission gate-based SRAM cell for Bio medical application eliminating the use of peripheral circuitry during the read operation. It commences the read operation directly with the help of Transmission gates with which the data stored in the storage nodes can be read, instead of using the precharge and sense amplifier circuits which suits better for the implantable devices. This topology offers smaller area, reduced delay, low power consumption as well as improved data stabilization in the read operation. The cell is implemented in 45nm CMOS technology operated at 0.45V.

In this paper, a novel latch-adder based multiplier design, targeting low voltage and low power IoT applications is presented. It employs a semi-dynamic (dynamic circuit with static keeper circuit) full adder design which efficiently incorporates the level sensitive latch circuit with the adder cell. Latch circuit control signals are generated by a chain of delay cell circuits. They are applied to each row of the adder array. This row-wise alignment ensures an orderly procedure, while successfully removing spurious switching resulting in reduced power consumption. Due to the delay cell circuit of our design is also realized by using full adder. Therefore, it is unnecessary to adjust the transistor sizes of the delay cell circuit deliberately. Post-layout simulation results on 8 × 8 multiplier design show that the proposed design has the lowest power consumption of all design candidates. The total power consumption saving compared to conventional array multiplier designs is up to 38.6%. The test chip measurement shows successful operations of our design down to 0.41 V with a power consumption of only 427 nW with a maximum frequency 500 KHz.

In this paper, a floorplanner for low power design is presented. Our objective is to optimize total power consumption and area during the selection and placement of various implementations for circuit modules. Furthermore, the proposed method considers performance requirements, power line noises, and distribution of power consumption in order to generate lower and evenly distributed power dissipation over the resulting circuit floorplan with a specified performance. For a set of benchmark circuits we tested, on the average, our floorplanner can achieve decreases of total power consumption, wire-length, and power/ground network size by 18.3%, 4.6%, and 24%, respectively, at the cost of an area increase of 8.8% when compared with an existing area/wire-length driven floorplanner.

Analogue-to-digital converters (ADC) using oversampling technology and the Σ-∆ modulation mechanism are widely applied in digital audio systems. This paper presents an audio modulator with high accuracy and low power consumption by using a discrete second-order feedforward structure. A 5-bit successive approximation register (SAR) quantizer is integrated into the chip, which reduces the number of comparators and the power consumption of the quantizer compared with flash ADC-type quantizers. An analogue passive adder is used to sum the input signals and it is embedded in a SAR ADC composed of a capacitor array and a dynamic comparator which has no static power consumption. To validate the design concept, the designed modulator is developed in a 180 nm CMOS process. The peak signal to noise distortion ratio (SNDR) is calculated as 106 dB and the total power consumption of the chip is recorded as 3.654 mW at the chip supply voltage of 1.8 V. The input sine wave of 0 to 25 kHz is sampled at a sampling frequency of 3.2 Ms/s. Moreover, the results achieve a 16-bit effective number of bits (ENOB) when the amplitude of the input signal is varied between 0.15 and 1.65 V. By comparing with other modulators which were realized by a 180 nm CMOS process, the proposed architecture outperforms with lower power consumption.

Implementation Stage

Recently, the multi-bit flip-flop (MBFF) technique was introduced as a method for reducing the power consumption and chip area of integrated circuits (ICs) during the physical implementation stage of their development process. From the perspective of the consumer, the main requirements for such an optimization method are high performance, low power usage and small area (PPA). Therefore, any new optimization technique should improve at least one, if not all, of these requirements. This paper proposes a new low-power methodology, applying a MBFF merging solution during the physical implementation of an IC to achieve better power consumption and area reduction. The aim of this study is to prove the benefit of this methodology on the power saving capability of the system while demonstrating that the proposed methodology does not have a negative impact on the circuit performance and design routability. The experimental results show that MBFF merging of 76% can be achieved and preserved throughout the entire physical implementation process, from cell placement to the final interconnection routing, without impacting the system’s performance or routability. Moreover, the clock wirelength, nets and buffers needed to balance the clock network were reduced by 11.98%, 3.82% and 9.16%, respectively. The reduction of the clock tree elements led to a reduction of the power consumption of the clock nets, registers and cells by 22.11%, 20.84% and 12.38%, respectively. The total power consumption of the design was reduced by 2.67%.
