Abstract :
This paper presents a novel probability based analysis for leakage power estimation of partially-depleted silicon-on-insulator (PD-SOI) circuits. The proposed leakage power estimation algorithms is implemented in C language, and the proposed methodology is tested by ISCAS85 benchmark circuits designed in 100 nm SOI technology. The results show that the error is within 4% compared with Hspice Monte Carlo simulation results.
