Low-Voltage CMOS VLSI Circuits

by James B. Kuo, Jea-Hong Lou

Overview

Low-voltage very large scale integration (VLSI) circuits representthe electronics of the future. All electronic products are strivingto reduce power consumption to create more economical, efficient,and compact devices. Despite the inevitable trend towardslow-voltage, few books address the technology needed. Geared to theneeds of engineers and designers in the field, this comprehensivevolume presents a remarkably detailed analysis of one of today'shottest and most compelling research techniques for VLSI systems.
