  • In this paper, the low-power clock generator synchronized with the AC power signal using the adiabatic dynamic CMOS logic (ADCL) buffer is proposed for adiabatic logics. To reduce the power dissipation in conventional CMOS logic and to maintain adiabatic charging and discharging with low power for the ADCL, the clock signal of logic circuits should be synchronized with the AC power source. The clock signal for an adiabatic charging and discharging with the AC power signal was generated with the designed Schmitt trigger circuit and ADCL frequency divider using the ADCL buffer. From the simulation result, the power consumption of the proposed clock generator was estimated with approximately 1.181uW and 37.42uW at output 3kHz and 10MHz respectively.
