When implemented on a 0.13 mu m CMOS 1.2V technology, mj-sib scheme reduces energy-delay product by 41.7% (at the receiver load of 0.25pF) and has 38.8% lower delay when compared with a counterpart asymmetric low-swing signaling scheme. Also, mj-sib topology has 14.2% lower energy-delay product and has 36% lower active area (50.25 mu m(2)) when compared with other symmetric low-swing signaling structure. The key advantages of the proposed signaling scheme is that it requires only one power supply and threshold voltage, hence significantly reducing the design complexity. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/49668 | ISBN: | 978-1-4244-1341-6 | DOI: | 10.1109/ECCTD.2007.4529714 | Source: | 2007 European Conference On Circuit Theory And Design, Vols 1-3, p. 787-+ |
