Current Control Mechanism For Dynamic Logic Keeper Circuits In An Integrated Circuit And Method Of Regulating Same

摘要

An integrated circuit that includes a gate control voltage generator that supplies a current control gate voltage to a plurality of current control devices of a corresponding plurality of dynamic logic circuits each having a keeper circuit. The gate control voltage generator provides, via current control gate voltage, global control of the amount of keeper current flowing through the keeper circuits so as to enhance the performance of the dynamic logic circuits.
