Self-Adaptive VDD Scaling (SAVS) technique achieves power/energy reduction by dynamically scaling VDD for the prevailing conditions. However, when applied in sub-threshold (sub-Vt) region, robustness issues need to be addressed due to the severe delay uncertainty associated with sub-Vt Process, Volt...
