....non homogeneous circuits have clearly separated blocks of logic with different performance constraints. Each of the individual blocks can then be separately optimized for V dd and V th and the various supply voltages can be obtained by using efficient DC DC power conversion circuits [65] [22], while the different thresholds can be obtained by processing steps or by substrate biasing. The high V dd side can directly drive the low V dd circuits but there is a need for level conversion in the other direction [73] 42] There is a recent patent on a logic synthesis approach to place the ....
....delay requirements [1] C. Continuous Non Stationary Circuits Circuits that have dynamically changing performance requirements can still be operated in an optimal fashion if their V dd and V th can be dynamically changed on demand [53] This requires efficient variable DC DC power conversion [22], 65] 25] and circuit styles that permit variable clock frequencies [75] Typically the V th is obtained by back biasing, either under biasing [69] or over biasing [77] The concept of self clocking was proposed for such circuits [51] 75] by which the clock frequency and supply voltage ....
