Towards a Unified Top-Down Design Flow for Fully-Differential Logic Blocks with Improved Speed and Noise Immunity

Yusuf Leblebici, Stéphane Badel, Ilhan Hatirnaz

A new top-down design flow (RTL-to-GDSII) is proposed for achieving high-performance and noiseimmune designs consisting of differential logic blocks. The differential building blocks are based on the currentmode logic (CML), which offers true differentiali ...
