Statistical analysis of subthreshold leakage current for VLSI circuits.

Statistical analysis of subthreshold leakage current for VLSI circuits.

We develop a method to estimate the variation of leakage current due to both intra-die and inter-die gate length process variability. We derive an analytical expression to estimate the probability density function (PDF) of the leakage current for stacked devices found in CMOS gates. These distributi...
