Design Methodology Of Deep Submicron CMOS Devices For 1V Operation

Abstract: IntroductionIt has been already clarified that, in down scaling of device dimensions, power-supply voltage (Vcc) for CMOS devices can be reduced from 5V to 2.5V without sacrificing performance trend ancl device reliability [']. Moreover, an operating voltage must be steadily reduced from power dissipation point of view, according to prospect for future CMOS design in deep-submicron era. On the other hand, the various CMOS chips for battery back up system such as a watch, a portable radio and stereo already exi… Show more

“…Acceptable values of are typically between 1/4 and 1/5 [3]- [5]. Even with a threshold as low as 0.2 V [5], [6], it will be difficult to maintain decent performance for a supply lower than 1 V with conventional circuitry. Such reasoning led to the predictions published in the 1994 SIA Roadmap and reprinted in Table I. The above discussion was based on a critical assumption-that we use the same threshold voltage in both the onand off-state.…”

“…21 Thus, it is important to decide the value of high threshold voltage. If the value of the V THhigh is close to the value of the V THlow , then there will be much more signal-paths that can be changed into V THhigh , and it also gives small leakage current improvement.…”
