Beside the technology node size and related parameters (e.g. process corner) it also depends on the switch implementation scheme (e.g. header vs. footer device, single vs. double cutoff ), the sleep transistor sizing, and on dynamic parameters such as the supply voltage. In this work, typical sleep-transistor based power-gating schemes are applied to RT-level components and leakage reductions, break-even-, and wake-up-times are traded off for relevant parameters and possibilities as well as limitations of these schemes are shown.} } @COMMENT{Bibtex file generated on }
