摘要
Ultra-low voltage is now a well-known solution for energy constrained applications designed using nanometric process technologies. This work is focused on setting up an automated methodology to enable the design of ultra-low voltage digital circuits exclusively using standard EDA tools. To achieve this goal, a 0.35V energy-delay optimized library was developed. This library, fully compliant with standard library design flow and characterization, was verified through the design and fabrication of a BCH decoder circuit, following a standard front-end to back-end flow. At 0.33V, it performs at 600 kHz with a dynamic energy consumption reduced by a factor 14x from nominal 1.1V. Based on this design, experiments, and preliminary silicon results, two additional libraries were developed in order to enhance future ultra-low voltage circuit performance.
