Abstract :
Practical issues in the design of power clock generators needed by adiabatic logic circuits are explained. Synchronous and asynchronous power clock generators are designed for an 8-bit adiabatic carry look-ahead adder and the more energy efficient circuit for the power clock generation is determined to be the 2N synchronous power clock generator that exhibits conversion efficiency of 77% at 10 MHz operating frequency
