Popis: Dynamic logic is most area effective technique for designing VLSI circuit. However, due to lower noise margin of dynamic logic performance is not auspicious. This research proposes a N-FinFET based resistive keeper circuit using 45nm PTM FinFET model which reduces the contention between pull down network and keeper device using the special feature of four terminal FinFET (capacitance merging among both gates of four terminal FinFET). Proposed resistive gate voltage can control the strength of keeper device which reduces the leakage power and time delay. Extensive simulation results using LTSpice tools demonstrate the validity and superiority of the introduced circuit.
