Abstract :
To get maximum energy efficiency from adiabatic logic circuits several charge-recovery power clock generators (PCGs) have been published in recent years. This paper compares and analyzes the performance and energy efficiency of various PCGs in a uniform test environment. The test benches are laid out in a standard 0.18 μm CMOS technology and the results are mainly based on post layout simulations.
