Abstract:Operating circuits in the sub-threshold region can save power, but at the cost of higher susceptibility to noise. This paper analyzes various gate-level error-mitigation designs appropriate for sub-threshold circuits. Previous works have proposed a modified version of the Schmitt trigger gate that uses logic implications to reinforce correct functional behavior. However, the increased error resilience requires increased area, delay, and power overhead. To address these shortcomings, we introduce two alternativ… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
