Power Gating (MTCMOS)

Power gating completely cuts the supply to an idle block using a header switch (PMOS) or footer switch (NMOS) cell. Reduces static leakage to near-zero for unus

Power gating completely cuts the supply to an idle block using a header switch (PMOS) or footer switch (NMOS) cell. Reduces static leakage to near-zero for unused blocks - the most aggressive leakage reduction technique.
