Abstract :
A Voltage-Regulated Static Keeper (VRSK) technique is proposed. The VRSK can be applied to any dynamic circuit without size optimization and dissipates only one-third power of a static keeper. A 4-bit demultiplexer incorporating the VRSK can operate up to 2.0 GHz with a power consumption of only 5.8 mW
