  • Abstract
    In sub-1V CMOS VLSIs, body-bias generation circuits are proposed in which Ids,, and Vt, of PMOS/NMOS are always fixed. The mixed body bias techniques result in positive temperature dependence of the delay, an 85% reduction of the delay variation, and a 75% improvement in the power consumption of an SRAM on a mobile processor.
