Use of biased high threshold voltage transistor to eliminate standby current in low voltage integrated circuits |
摘要 |
An integrated circuit (100) includes a first input (108) to receive a first operating voltage Vcc and a second input (110) to receive a second operating voltage Vss. Operating circuitry (102) of the integrated circuit is coupled to the first input to power the operating circuitry. A transistor (104) is coupled between the second input and the operating circuitry to selectively provide the second operating voltage to the operating circuitry of the integrated circuit. The well containing the transistor is biased to provide a reverse body effect and reduce the threshold voltage of the transistor to allow operation at very low Vcc.
