Abstract :
Resonant clocking is a promising low power alternative for conventional clocking method. In this work, a design methodology is presented for square wave resonant clocking technique to assure minimum power consumption. These equations were verified by designing a differential clock generator which showed 55% power savings compared to conventional clocking.
