    Timing-Based Closed Loop Compensation

    In this chapter, we present the closed-loop control of the circuit’s timing as a way to regulate the body-bias and compensate for variations. We will go through the main building blocks of closed-loop timing s...

    Body-Bias for Digital Designs

    In this chapter we will detail the key advantages of Body-Bias for digital design. As Body-Bias modulates the transistors’ V T, it enables higher I on at the expense of higher I off. This design tuning knob can b...
