Low Power Bootstrapped CMOS Differential Cross Coupled Driver

This paper reports a high speed and low power consumption differential cross coupled bootstrapped CMOS driver circuit (db-driver). It is 34% faster and provides 8% less core area as compared to a counterpart circuit (Tseng and Wu, 1998) (yc-driver) using indirect bootstrap technique. In addition, db-driver reduces the power consumption by 35% db-driver is implemented on 0.13mum CMOS technology with a power supply of 1.2V
