Abstract
The use of analog floating-gate elements in analog circuit research has steadily increased. These elements have great potential because they can be fabricated on a standard process and are low-power. An interesting application for these circuits is in the tuning of digital circuits for threshold and power consumption, which has been traditionally done by design. We explore the use of analog floating gates for threshold adjustments in a digital inverter.
