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.

In deep sub-micro CMOS process, the leakage power is becoming a significant proportion in power dissipation. Hence, estimating the leakage power of CMOS circuits is very important in low-power design. In this paper, an estimation technology for the total leakage power of adiabatic logic circuits by using SPICE is proposed. The basic principle of power estimation for traditional CMOS circuits using SPICE is introduced. According to the energy dissipation characteristic of adiabatic circuits, the estimation technology for leakage power is discussed. Taken as an example, the estimation for total leakage power dissipations of PAL-2N (pass-transistor adiabatic logic with NMOS pull-down configuration) circuits is illustrated using the proposed estimation technology.

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.

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.

With rapid technology scaling, the proportion of the leakage power catches up with dynamic power gradually. The leakage dissipation through the gate oxide is becoming an important component of power consumption in currently used nanometer CMOS processes without metal gate structure. This paper presents adiabatic sequential circuits using P-type complementary pass-transistor adiabatic logic circuit (P-CPAL) to reduce the gate-leakage power dissipations. A practical sequential system with a mode-10 counter is demonstrated using the P-CPAL scheme. All circuits are simulated using HSPICE under 65nm and 90nm CMOS processes. Simulations show that the mode-10 counter using P-CPAL circuits obtains significant improvement in terms of power consumption over the traditional N-type CPAL counterparts.

Leakage power reduction is extremely important in the design of nano-circuits. Gate leakage has become a significant component in currently used nanometer CMOS processes with gate oxide structure. The structure and operation of the PAL-2P (pass-transistor adiabatic logic with PMOS pull-up configuration) circuits that consist mostly of PMOS transistors are complementary to PAL-2N (pass-transistor adiabatic logic with NMOS pull-down configuration) ones that consist mostly of NMOS transistors. This paper investigates gate leakage reduction of the PAL-2P circuits in nanometer CMOS processes with gate oxide materials. An s27 benchmark circuit from the ISCAS89 sequential benchmark set is verified using the PAL-2P scheme. All circuits are simulated with HSPICE using the 65nm CMOS process with gate oxide materials. Based on the power dissipation models of PAL-2P adiabatic circuits, active leakage dissipations are estimated by testing total leakage dissipations using SPICE simulations. The PAL-2P circuits consume low static power compared with traditional PAL-2N ones.
