Abstract

Adiabatic flow Analog circuits Circuit design Power consumption Recovery State of the art
Conference Title: 2017 IEEE 60th International Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems (MWSCAS) Conference Start Date: 2017, Aug. 6 Conference End Date: 2017, Aug. 9 Conference Location: Boston, MA, USA This work introduces a charge recovery comparator circuit for low-power, low-frequency applications. For the first time, the principles of charge recovery logic, or adiabatic logic, are applied to an analog circuit. The comparator is designed and simulated in a 180 nm technology and compared to state of the art solutions. Post-extraction simulations show that the proposed comparator consumes only 46 fJ per conversion in the nominal PVT corner, while having a total area of 45 μm2. The proposed comparator consumes up to 70 % less power than a state of the art dynamic latch comparator.
