Abstract :
In this paper, a power supply circuit is proposed for adiabatic dynamic CMOS logic circuit. Charge in load capacitors of gates can be recycled by using this power supply circuit. It leads to lower power consumption than without recycling. In this paper, source voltage of adiabatic dynamic CMOS inverter chain circuits is supplied with the circuit to evaluate the usefulness of the circuit. The results show that the circuits can work with smaller power consumption than without recycling.
