  • Abstract
    In this paper a new low power bus architecture based on the reduced voltage swing technique, is proposed. A driver circuit and a receiver are designed using strictly simple design principles and conventional CMOS technology. A considerable reduction in power consumption is achieved. The influence of the swing level on the time performance is also examined. The same architecture with a new repeater circuit is used, for driving internal long interconnection lines and similar results are obtained
