Effectiveness analysis of low power technique of dynamic logic under temperature and process Variations

Using multiple-parameter Monte Carlo method, the effectiveness of the dual threshold voltage technique (DTV) in low power domino logic design is analyzed. Simulation results indicate that under significant temperature and process variations, DTV is still highly effective to reduce the total leakage and active power consumption for domino gates with speed loss. Also, regarding power and delay characteristics, different structure domino gates with DTV have different robustness against the temperature and process variation.
