Who would have thought that a circuit comprising only two 2-input NAND gates could be so complicated (or, should we say, “interesting”)? Up to this point (click here to see my earlier columns), the ...

Digital design with combinatorial gates like AND, OR, and NOT gates is relatively straightforward. In particular, when you use these gates to form combinatorial logic, the outputs only depend on the ...

This paper presents a low power Clock Gating scheme for clock power improvement that reduces power dissipation by deactivating the clock signal to an inactive value (for clock gating cell) when clock ...
