  • Abstract
    In this work, different types of clocked storage elements are compared in terms of the impact of process variations on their performances. Transistor sizes are obtained from energy-efficient characteristics and used in the simulation to measure the delay variations caused by process variations. The structure of a clocked storage element affects its robustness to process variations.
