Low Power Design | Always-On Logic Cells

What are Always-On Logic Cells? Some logic needs to remain active during shutdown, such as Power Switch Cells, Retention Register Cells, and Isolation Cells. These are referred to as Always-On Logic Cells. They can maintain a constant ‘on’ state regardless of whether the voltage area is powered down. Always-On Logic Cell Where are they used? … Read more

Low Power Design | Retention Register

Low Power Design | Retention Register

In power-off modules, it may be required for the register to latch data before power-off or to restore latched data after power-on, which necessitates a special unit known as the Retention Register. The retention register consists of two sets of registers: the Main Register and the shadow register, where the shadow register is powered by … Read more
