Abstract: | Mixed-Vth (MVT) technique has been proposed to resize the MOS size and then reduce dynamic power in logic gates by applying a low threshold voltage to transistors in some critical paths, while a standard threshold voltage is used in non-critical paths. This paper presents 130nm and 90nm low power cell libraries using MVT technique. The dynamic power consumption of the cells has been reduced around 5% to 30% and with the same timing specifications. |
