  • Abstract
    This paper describes a low power clock distribution that utilizes sinusoidal clock waveforms and proposes registers that are able to cope with the overlapping clock edges. We can report power savings of 30% to 70% compared with conventional clocking schemes while maintaining traditional static CMOS design styles and logic levels
