Open publisher page 5 citations

Abstract

This paper proposes a body-biased bootstrapped CMOS driver for subthreshold applications. The proposed driver has been implemented with the same number of transistors as conventional bootstrapped CMOS driver. The performance of the subthreshold bootstrapped CMOS driver has been compared with the conventional bootstrapped CMOS driver. Our results show that the proposed body-biased subthreshold bootstrapped CMOS driver has 37% reduction in delay and 39% reduction in power dissipation compared to conventional bootstrapped CMOS driver. The proposed driver is more suitable to drive large loads compared to the conventional driver and operates better at subthreshold region.
