Integration of level shifting in a TSPC flip-flop for low-power robust timing closure in dual-Vdd ULV circuits
2017
Ultra-low-voltage (ULV) operation of logic circuits is an interesting solution to reduce power consumption in digital circuits. However the always-on blocks at nominal Vdd are necessary for functionality or I/O communications, which induces complex timing closure. In this paper, we propose a 5.4fJ/cycle 0.4V to 1.2V level-shifting flip-flop in 28nm FDSOI, which simplifies the clock tree constraints between the power domains.
