Abstract | Significant amount of the total power consumption in on-chip SRAM comes from leakage power. As technology sizes down, maintaining high-speed performance at the same time making effort to curtail leakage power has become more and more challenging. The goal of this work is to curtail leakage power in SRAM peripherals, particularly in word line drivers. The proposed buffer architecture is a merger of 4-stage CMOS buffer without dynamic short-circuit power dissipation and reverse body biasing technique. For a load capacitance of 150 fF and input clock frequency of 100 kHz, the technique results to a static power reduction of 5 pW. Comparison shows that the proposed buffer offers a 10.26% reduction in total power consumed. |
