Abstract
A 32-bit RISC microprocessor “V810” that has 5-stage pipeline structure and a 1 K byte, direct-mapped instruction cache realizes 0.7 MHz operation at 0.75 V, dissipating 330 μW power consumption. To overcome narrow noise margin, all the signals are set to have rail-to-rail swing by pseudo-static circuit technique. The chip is fabricated by 0.8 μm double metal-layer CMOS process technology to integrate 240,000 transistors on 7.4 mm×7.1 mm die
