Description

[0001] The present invention relates to an ADCL inverter having improved current driving capability,

The present invention relates to an ADCL (Adiabatic Dynamic CMOS Logic) inverter, and more particularly, to a semiconductor integrated circuit which improves chip integration by using no capacitor and operates with one logic gate using two ADCL circuits, To an ADCL inverter which improves the current driving capability, which can reduce the abnormal operation of the logic circuit by improving the current driving capability.

Recently, with the rapid development of biotechnology, microchip and nanochip technology for inserting a chip into a human body are getting much attention. However, when the chip inserted into the body is operated, the chip may suddenly generate heat due to the on / off switching operation of the chip and the energy loss due to the internal resistance of the chip associated therewith. This can cause catastrophic damage to cells of the human body.

In addition, since the chip inserted into the body can not be supplied with power from the outside, once the power is supplied, the operation state of the chip must be continuously maintained without supplying power from the outside. Therefore, low power operation of the circuit is required. ADL (Adiabatic Dynamic CMOS Logic) is an optimized circuit, and various researches and technologies related thereto are being continuously developed. To take advantage of this ADCL, a capacitor is used at the bottom of the circuit. This is to prevent errors in operation and improve the driving capability as a logic gate in the construction of an ADCL-based digital system.

However, in a System on Chip (SoC) design made up of ADCL digital systems, the area of the chip is much larger than that of the CMOS digital system because of the large area of the capacitor. This means that the degree of integration is lowered, leading to an increase in design costs. However, if an ADCL circuit with a capacitor removed is used to cope with this problem, since the digital logic representation instantaneously changes due to the characteristic of using an AC power source, the current driving ability of the circuit is degraded and the operation of the logic circuit is not properly performed.

On the other hand, Japanese Patent Application No. 10-0554826 (Patent Document 1) discloses a "dynamic CMOS logic circuit" for increasing the speed of the gate by reducing the height of the pull down stack in the dynamic logic gate without changing the function of the gate A logic circuit output node connected to a second node of the precharge circuit; and a second logic circuit output node connected to the second node of the precharge circuit, A logic circuit for controlling a logic circuit output node, and a pseudofooter circuit.

However, although the above-described Patent Document 1 can provide a fast dynamic logic gate and enable a low-power dynamic logic gate, since the digital logic representation is instantaneously changed due to the characteristic of using the AC power source, And the operation of the logic circuit is not properly performed.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Before describing the embodiments of the present invention in full, the current driving capability improvement (improvement) sought in the present invention will be described first.

ADCL requires capacitors at the bottom of the unit ADCL circuit in order to improve current drive capability in digital circuit and system configuration. However, since the capacitance of the capacitor in the SoC (System on Chip) design is large, the chip area becomes considerably large when the load capacitor is applied to each unit circuit of ADCL. In other words, it means that the integration density of the chip is lowered because the number of circuits is limited in the ADCL-based digital circuit configuration in a limited chip area. Therefore, in order to increase the integration of the ADCL-based digital circuit in the area of the miniaturized / nanoized chip, the present invention proposes a practical design technique for removing the load capacitor and improving the current driving capability of the circuit.

3 is a diagram schematically illustrating a concept of a practical design technique for improving the current driving ability of the ADCL circuit.

Referring to FIG. 3, when one power supply and one ADCL unit circuit are formed, if the load capacitor is removed, the output drive of the ADCL circuit may not be as shown in FIG. 3A. This occurs only when the power supply input is in a low period. Therefore, if the output current and voltage can be generated even in a period where no output occurs as shown in FIG. 3B, the current driving capability of the ADCL will be improved.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the above concept.

4 is a diagram showing a simulation result of an ADCL inverter according to the presence or absence of a load capacitor.

4A is a simulation result of a conventional ADCL inverter to which a load capacitor is applied, and FIG. 4B is a simulation result of a conventional ADCL inverter in which a load capacitor is removed. It can be seen that when the load capacitor is removed during the pull-up network operation ((B)), the current driving capability is lower than that of the conventional ADCL inverter ((A)) using the load capacitor. As described above, in the SoC design, it is necessary to remove the load capacitor in order to apply the ADCL to the digital circuit. However, it can be confirmed that the current driving ability of the circuit is rather reduced when the load capacitor is removed. Therefore, the present invention proposes an ADCL inverter (the ADCL inverter according to the first and second embodiments of the present invention) as described above in order to complement (improve) the current driving capability while removing the capacitor.

This makes it possible to compensate for an area where the current does not flow. When also compared with the output voltage (V OUT) and an output current (I OUT) output voltage (V OUT) and an output current (I OUT) in the (B) of Figure 4 at 5, ADCL inverter according to the invention It can be seen that the current driving capability is improved in the case where the capacitor is removed.

6 is a table comparing characteristics of an ADCL inverter improved in current driving capability and a conventional ADCL inverter according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 6, in the conventional ADCL inverter, the current driving capability is about 53.11 nW, but in the ADCL inverter according to the present invention, the current driving capability is increased by about 31 times to 1.63 ㎼. Also, assuming that the area of the ADCL inverter is 100% in a 0.18 탆 standard CMOS process in the SoC design, the ADCL inverter according to the present invention requires an area of about 5.4% which is reduced by 94.6%. These results suggest that maximization of practicality for using ADCL in the miniaturization and nanotechnology semiconductor market trends can be achieved.

As described above, the ADCL inverter improved the current driving capability according to the present invention can reduce the manufacturing cost by improving the integration degree of the chips by not using the capacitors, and it is possible to use the two ADCL circuits as one logic gate So that abnormal operation of the logic circuit can be reduced, thereby contributing to improvement of the quality of the semiconductor chip product.
