Crosstalk at the Dynamic Node of Domino CMOS Circuits
نویسندگان
چکیده
The need for faster circuits in smaller area with lower power dissipation has made it a common practice to use the domino CMOS in high performance integrated circuits. However this improved performance comes at the cost of lower noise immunity. Also current trends in integrated circuit technology have increased chances of crosstalk due to capacitive coupling. Though several works have investigated the problem of crosstalk at the inputs of domino circuits, crosstalk at the dynamic node of the domino circuits has been ignored. A model for crosstalk at the dynamic node is developed and verified in this paper. Application of this model can ensure immunity of domino circuits from crosstalk failures.

A New Circuit Scheme for Wide Dynamic Circuits
In this paper, a new circuit scheme is proposed to reduce the power consumption of dynamic circuits. In the proposed circuit, an NMOS keeper transistor is used to maintain the voltage level in the output node against charge sharing, leakage current and noise sources. Using the proposed keeper scheme, the voltage swing on the dynamic node is lowered to reduce the power consumption of wide fan-in...

DOMINO gates are more vulnerable to crosstalk-induced functional failures compared to static CMOS gates. Previously developed noise models generate pessimistic noise analysis because the effect of keeper in DOMINO is not properly incorporated. In this paper, a new crosstalk noise model is proposed for DOMINO logic gates. Our noise model takes the effect of keeper into account and provides more ...

As technology scales into the deep submicron regime, capacitive coupling between signal lines becomes a dominant problem. Capacitive coupling is more acute for domino logic circuits since an irreversible, unwanted gate output transition can result. We present a timed test generation methodology for CMOS domino circuits that assigns the circuit inputs so that capacitively-coupled aggressors of a...

In this paper we propose two buffer circuits for footed domino logic circuit. It minimizes redundant switching at the output node. These circuits prevent propagation of precharge pulse to the output node during precharge phase which saves power consumption. Simulation is done using 0.18μm CMOS technology. We have calculated the power consumption, delay and power delay product of proposed circui...
