A ``wide-range voltage-and-frequency clock synchronizer'' for maintaining synchronization during voltage-scaling transition in dynamic voltage-and-frequency scaling (DVFS) was developed.
The key feature of the synchronizer is so-called predictive-delay-adjustment scheme based on a relative skew measure.
The scheme reduces the area of the WRCS by 77\%.
The area of the fabricated WRCS in a 40-nm CMOS is only 5.65$\times$10$^{-3}$ mm$^2$.
It was demonstrated for the first time that measured skew is suppressed to less than 6.8\% of clock period in the case of wide-range voltage variation (0.8 -- 1.55 V) and wide frequency range (100 MHz -- 1 GHz).
Moreover, current dissipation of the synchronizer is only 0.48 mA at 1.1-V 100-MHz operation. |
