Abstract(in English) In deep submicron technologies, parameter variations have become a serious problem on LSI design. We proposed canary flip-flops to attack the problem, and have investigated its application on power reduction by exploiting input value variations. This paper considers some critical issues on the canary FFs and the DVS systems utilizing the canary FF. Especially, this paper focuses on the problem of power supply voltage and evaluate a solution. Detailed simulation results show that performance penalty is effectively eliminated.
