摘要
In this paper, the analysis of different implementations of memory elements-edge-triggered flip-flops, in current-mode technologies is presented. Main parameters as area, delay, power consumption and noise generation have been measured by electrical simulation in a 0.35 mum CMOS technology. The reliability in operation has been also quantified by timing violation parameters measurement. The main results obtained are, on one hand, the selection of a logic family for an specific application and, on the other hand, the selection of an specific flip-flop structure for a optimized parameter option power, noise or speed. Variations of measured parameters for different operation conditions have been also considered. The main results have shown that CBL-Current Balanced Logic-family presents the best behaviour.
