Abstract :
A reduced swing single clock flip-flop (RS2CFF) is developed to reduce power consumption significantly compared to conventional FFs. RS2CFF avoids unnecessary internal node transition and reduce fighting currents. The overall power saving in flip-flop operation is estimated to be 33% with additional 64% power savings in clock network
