A Low-Voltage Processor for Sensing Applications With Picowatt Standby Mode

TL;DR: This work describes a low-voltage processor called the Phoenix Processor that has been designed at the device, circuit, and architecture levels to minimize standby power.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gate oxide leakage current analysis and reduction for VLSI circuits

TL;DR: A fast approach to analyze the total leakage power of a large circuit block, considering both I/sub gate/ and subthreshold leakage (I/sub sub/), and proposes the use of pin reordering as a means to reduce I/ sub gate/.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Stand-by power minimization through simultaneous threshold voltage selection and circuit sizing

TL;DR: To overcome the complexity of state dependence in average leakage estimation, the concept of "dominant leakage states" and use state probabilities are introduced and this accurate estimation is used in a new sensitivity-based leakage and performance optimization approach for circuits using dual V/sub t/ processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Injectable 64 nW ECG Mixed-Signal SoC in 65 nm for Arrhythmia Monitoring

TL;DR: A syringe-implantable electrocardiography (ECG) monitoring system is proposed that successfully detecting atrial fibrillation arrhythmia and storing the irregular waveform in memory in experiments using an ECG simulator, a live sheep, and an isolated sheep heart.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

IoT design space challenges: Circuits and systems

TL;DR: This paper explores the IoT application space and identifies two common challenges that exist across this space: ultra-low power operation and system design using modular, composable components.
