  • Abstract
    In this paper, we present a technique that ensures the functionality and timing consistency in SOI circuits while simultaneously attaining performance leverage. It addresses cycle-dependent, particularly initial-cycle, speed and noise concerns due to the parasitic bipolar current and hysteretic Vt variation associated with the PD/SOI technology.
