Flip-Flop Design in Nanometer CMOS: From High Speed to Low by Massimo Alioto

By Massimo Alioto

This booklet presents a unified remedy of Flip-Flop layout and choice in nanometer CMOS VLSI platforms. The layout features concerning the energy-delay tradeoff in Flip-Flops are mentioned, together with their energy-optimal choice based on the unique program, and the distinctive circuit layout in nanometer CMOS VLSI structures. layout suggestions are derived in a coherent framework that incorporates explicitly nanometer results, together with leakage, structure parasitics and process/voltage/temperature adaptations, as major advances over the prevailing physique of labor within the box. The similar layout tradeoffs are explored in a variety of purposes and the comparable energy-performance goals. a variety of latest and lately proposed Flip-Flop topologies are mentioned. Theoretical foundations are supplied to set the degree for the derivation of layout guidance, and emphasis is given on useful facets and effects of the provided effects. Analytical types and derivations are brought while had to achieve an perception into the inter-dependence of layout parameters less than sensible constraints. This booklet serves as a helpful reference for training engineers operating within the VLSI layout quarter, and as textual content e-book for senior undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate scholars (already conversant in electronic circuits and timing).
