Abstract :
In this paper we present a CMOS gate which operates on ultra low voltage. We show how to reduce the supply voltage Vdd to Vt without affecting the operational frequency significantly. Moreover, we elaborate on the PDP and EDP improvement compared to footed domino logic CMOS. The paper concludes with measurement from a fabricated chip in a 0.13mum process.
