The objective of the work is to design a new clock gated based flip flop for pipelining architecture. In computing and consumer products, the major dynamic power is consumed in the system's clock signal, typically about 30% to 70% of the total dynamic (switching) power consumption. Several techniques to reduce the dynamic power have been developed, of which clock gating is predominant. In this work, a new methodology is applied for gating the Flip flop by which the power will be reduced. The clock gating is employed to the pipelining stage flip flop which is active only during valid data are arrived. The methodology used in project named Selective Look-Ahead Clock Gating computes the clock enabling signals of each FF one cycle ahead of time, based on the present cycle data of those FFs on which it depends. Similarly to data-driven gating, it is capable of stopping the majority of redundant clock pulses. In this work, the circuit implementation of the various blocks of data driven clock gating is done and the results are observed. The proposed work is used for pipelining stage in microprocessor and DSP architectures. The proposed method is simulated using the quartus for cyclone 3 kit.
A low-noise, high-speed, low-input-capacitance switched dynamic comparator (SDC) CMOS image sensor architecture is presented in this paper. The comparator design occupying less area and consuming lesser power is suitable for bank of comparators in CMOS image readouts. The proposed dynamic comparator eliminates the stacking issue related to the conventional comparator and reduces the offset noise further. The need for low-noise, low-power, area-efficient and high-speed flash analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) in many applications today motivated us to design a comparator for ADC. The rail-to-rail output swing is also improved. The input capacitance is reduced by using shared first-stage technique. The comparator is designed with constant [Formula: see text]/[Formula: see text] biasing to suppress the environmental drift. The simulation results from 45-nm and 65-nm CMOS technologies confirm the analysis results. It is shown that in the proposed dynamic comparator both the power consumption and delay time are significantly reduced. The maximum clock frequency of the proposed comparator can be increased to 3.5[Formula: see text]GHz and 2.2[Formula: see text]GHz at supply voltages of 1[Formula: see text]V and 0.6[Formula: see text]V, respectively. Simulations are carried out using predictive technology models for 45[Formula: see text]nm and 65[Formula: see text]nm in HSPICE.
