    摘要: Techniques are disclosed for forming a compacted array of functional cells using next-generation lithography (NGL) processes, such as electron-beam direct write (EBDW) and extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL), to form the boundaries of the cells in the array. The compacted array of cells may be used for field-programmable gate array (FPGA) structures configured with logic cells, static random-access memory (SRAM) structures configured with bit cells, or other memory or logic devices having cell-based structures. The techniques can be used to gain a reduction in area of 10 to 50 percent, for example, for the array of functional cells, because the NGL processes allow for higher precision and closer cuts for the cell boundaries, as compared to conventional 193 nm photolithography. In addition, the use of NGL processes to form the boundaries for the cells may also reduce lithography induced variations that would otherwise be present with conventional 193 nm photolithography.

    摘要: In general, in one aspect, the disclosure describes an apparatus comprising a low leakage latch to store a state of a circuit during inactive periods. The state is transferred to the low leakage latch upon receipt of an inactive pulse. A buffer is used to receive the state from an output of the low leakage latch and to isolate the state. State restore circuitry is used to restore the state to the circuit when the circuit returns to an active mode. The state restore circuitry is used to receive the isolated state and to restore the state upon receipt of an active pulse.

    摘要: In embodiments, a data-retention circuitry comprises data-retention inverters in a feedback loop, an isolation subcircuit to isolate the inverters from a pass-gate subcircuit in response to a sleep signal, and a supply-switching subcircuit to provide current to the data-retention inverters from a supplemental voltage supply through a well tap during a standby mode. The supply-switching subcircuit switches from a regular voltage supply to the supplemental voltage supply in response to the sleep signal.
