One of the major issues in this method is performance and power overheads due to insertion of Level Converting Flip-Flops (LCFF) at the interface from low-supply to high-supply clusters to simultaneously perform latching and level conversion. In this paper, an improved version of clocked pseudo-NMOS LCFF called Clock Branch Sharing pseudo-NMOS LCFF has been proposed, which combines the Conditional Discharge technique, pseudo-NMOS technique and Clock Branch Sharing technique. Based on Simulation results, the proposed flip-flop exhibits up to 32.5% delay reduction and saves power up to 8.1% as compared to clocked pseudo-NMOS LCFF.}, keywords = {low power,Level Conversion,Flip,Flops,multi,VDD Systems}, url = {https://www.ije.ir/article_72100.html}, eprint = {https://www.ije.ir/article_72100_f68b17db1e1d2a08ebfdb1cec56a1d64.pdf} }
