One of the most common methods of reducing power lost due to chip leakage is to use a multiple-threshold CMOS (MTCMOS) cell as a switch to turn the power supply (or ground) off for inactive partitions ...

For an efficient design, the conductor ampacity tables in Chapter 3 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) provide a starting point. But did the installation stay efficient over time? One way to ...

At one time a relatively infrequent occurrence, voltage drop is now a major impediment to reliability at advanced nodes. Decades ago, voltage drop was only an issue for very large and high-speed ...

As a fundamental concept of electronic design, voltage drop ranks highly as one to understand well. I particularly appreciate when industry folks come up with creative ways to get the point across.

When a voltage is applied to a material or device,current will flow through it. How much current will flow is based on theresistance that the material applies to a circuit. The resistance of a ...
