based on the analyzing the characteristic of BiCMOS circuits and theory of transmission voltage-switches, we proposed a general structure of binary BiCMOS circuit based on NPN-NPN feedback driver circuit. Then we designed binary BiCMOS master-slave JK flip-flop circuit and transmission gate D flip-flop circuit base on the general structure of NPN-NPN feedback driver circuit. With using HSPICE simulation, the results show that the circuits have the correct logical function. The proposed driver circuits can be used in the design of BiCMOS sequential circuits.

A novel low-power and high-speed D flip-flop is presented in this letter. The flip-flop consists of a single low-power latch, which is controlled by a positive narrow pulse. Hence, fewer transistors are used and lower power consumption is achieved. HSPICE simulation results show that power dissipation of the proposed D flip-flop has been reduced up to 76%. The operating frequency of the flip-flop is also greatly increased.

One of the paramount issues in the field of VLSI design is the rapid increase in power consumption. Therefore, it is necessary to develop power-efficient circuits. Here, three new simple architectures are presented for a Dynamic Double Edge Triggered Flip-flop named as Transistor Count Reduction Flip-flop, S-TCRFF (Series Stacking in TCRFF) and FST in TCRFF (Forced Stacking of Transistor in TCRFF). The first one features a dynamic design comprising of transmission gate in which total transistor count has greatly reduced without affecting the logic, thereby attaining better power and speed performance. For the reduction of static power, two types of stacking called series and forced transistor stacking are applied. The circuits are simulated using Cadence Virtuoso in 45[Formula: see text]nm CMOS technology with a power supply of 1[Formula: see text]V at 500[Formula: see text]MHz when input switching activity is 25%. The simulated results indicated that the new designs (TCRFF, S-TCRFF and FST in TCRFF) excelled in different circuit performance indices like Power-Delay-Product (PDP), Energy-Delay-Product (EDP), average and leakage power with less layout area compared with the performance of nine recently proposed FF designs. The improvement in PDPdq value was up to 89.2% (TCRFF), 89.9% (S-TCRFF) and 90.3% (FST in TCRFF) with conventional transmission gate FF (TGFF).

Reversible logic has been recently considered as an interesting and important issue in designing combinational and sequential circuits. The combination of reversible logic and multi-valued logic can improve power dissipation, time and space utilization rate of designed circuits. Only few works have been reported about sequential reversible circuits and almost there are no paper exhibited about quantum ternary reversible counter. In this paper, first we designed 2-qutrit and 3-qutrit quantum reversible ternary up-counters using quantum ternary reversible T-flip-flop and quantum reversible ternary gates. Then we proposed generalized quantum reversible ternary n-qutrit up-counter. We also introduced a new approach for designing any type of n-qutrit ternary and reversible counter. According to the results, we can conclude that applying second approach quantum reversible ternary up-counter is better than the others.


Considering the roadmap of silicon, the high rate of shrinkage in dimensions of typical MOS circuits, genuine difficulties endanger this innovation. A quantum-dot cellular automaton (QCA) is an outstanding and conceivable answer for substitution of CMOS technology. Sequential circuits contain combinational circuits and memory elements which store binary information. Latches and Flip-flop circuits are the basic components of computerized circuits, along these lines. The area and energy of the sequential circuits has to be minimal for speed applications. Traditional implementation of JK flip-flop circuits requires more cells and consumes more energy. This paper proposes a compact and low energy JK Flip-flop, designed in CAD tool, QCADesigner. Analysis of energy was performed using the CAD tool, QCADesigner-E. The experimental results obtained in the proposed paper demonstrate the reduction in the cell count which in turn brings down the complexity of the circuit when compared to the reference QCA based JK Flip-flop circuits and it also shows a reduction in energy and area.

The paper introduces novel architectures for implementation of fully static master-slave flip-flops for low power, high performance, and high density. Based on the proposed structure, traditional C2MOS latch (tristate inverter/clocked inverter) based flip-flop is implemented with fewer transistors. The modified C2MOS based flip-flop designs mC2MOSff1 and mC2MOSff2 are realized using only sixteen transistors each while the number of clocked transistors is also reduced in case of mC2MOSff1. Postlayout simulations indicate that mC2MOSff1 flip-flop shows 12.4% improvement in PDAP (power-delay-area product) when compared with transmission gate flip-flop (TGFF) at 16X capacitive load which is considered to be the best design alternative among the conventional master-slave flip-flops. To validate the correct behaviour of the proposed design, an eight bit asynchronous counter is designed to layout level. LVS and parasitic extraction were carried out on Calibre, whereas layouts were implemented using IC station (Mentor Graphics). HSPICE simulations were used to characterize the transient response of the flip-flop designs in a 180 nm/1.8 V CMOS technology. Simulations were also performed at 130 nm, 90 nm, and 65 nm to reveal the scalability of both the designs at modern process nodes.
