  • Abstract
    Lowering operating voltage, VDD, is a key to low-power CMOS digital VLSIs. In order to complete a certain task in a required time and in order to keep leakage current within a tolerable level in the low VDD designs, VDD and VTH control is obligatory. This paper covers several of the schemes including multi-VTH, variable VTH, multi-VDD and variable VDD to achieve low-power systems. Circuit level ideas for software related research are described
