  • Abstract
    Tunable replica circuits are used in conjunction with error-detection sequentials and dynamic voltage and frequency techniques to adapt to voltage, temperature, and aging variations. Measurements on a 45nm test chip demonstrate the delay sensitivity of replica circuits to voltage, temperature, and AC/AC stress and recovery.
