This work presents a partially depleted Silicon-on-Insulator (PD-SOI) low-static power consumption Retention Flip-Flop (REFF). This flip-flop is designed in order to avoid wake-up transient glitches. In addition specific leakage reduction techniques are used to compensate the extra leakage currents induced by the SOI floating body effects. This leads to a static power consumption reduced by 2 for only 6% of extra silicon area, compared to a regular floating body implementation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
