Abstract
A new high speed and low voltage swing on-chip BUS using threshold voltage swing driver and dual sense amplifier receiver is proposed. The threshold voltage swing driver reduces the rising time in the bus to 30% of the full CMOS inverter driver and the dual sense amplifier receiver increases twice the throughput. of the conventional reduced-swing buses using sense amplifier receiver. With threshold voltage swing driver and dual sense amplifier receiver combined, approximately 60% speed improvement and 75% power reduction are achieved in the proposed scheme compared to the conventional full CMOS inverter for the on-chip bus.
