  • Abstract
    The new generation of multimedia-application processors requires a drastic leakage reduction to bring the standby current to 50μA. An efficient set of leakage reduction techniques, including power gating, memory retention, voltage scaling, and dual Vt, is employed on a 50M transistor, 80mm2 IC, fabricated in a 90nm CMOS technology, resulting in a 40× leakage reduction.
