Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Small-variability transistors such as silicon on thin buried oxide (SOTB) are effective for reducing the operation voltage (V_
). In the ultralow-V_
regime, however, the upsurging delay (τ_) variability is the most important challenge. This paper proposes the balanced n/p drivability control method for reducing the die-to-die delay variation by back bias applicable for various circuits. Excellent variability reduction by this balanced control is demonstrated at V_
= 0.4 V.
