A healthy condition represents the balanced condition while unbalancing condition is characterized by unhealthy conditions like three-phase fault, single line to ground fault, the line-to-line fault, and double line to ground fault. The DFIG is driven by wind and integrated with the grid. The advantages associated with IWO technique are a simple mathematical approach and less data computation. Normally, DFIG consists of two back-to-back converters namely grid side converter (GSC) and rotor side converter (RSC). The GSC is an uncontrolled converter while the RSC is a controlled converter. The existing methods have poor performance parameters like settling time, peak overshoot for balanced conditions, and poor power quality parameters like total harmonic distortion (THD) for unbalanced conditions. An IWO technique has been applied to overcome such limitations. The effectiveness of the sensor less speed control is also analyzed with other techniques like Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Interference System (AN-FIS) & artificial neural network (ANN). The design of ANN is based on the feed-forward method using back propagation delay and the design of ANFIS is based on adaptive control and state space control strategy. It is observed that performance parameters like peak overshoot and settling time for the sensor less speed of DFIG are found to be more profound with IWO in comparison to ANFIS, ANN, and other existing techniques for balanced conditions. Similarly in the unbalanced condition, faulty current approaches are quite closer to their healthy state with the IWO method in comparison to other methods. In addition to this, minimum distortion (%THD) for the grid current under unbalanced conditions is also attained with IWO in comparison to ANFIS, ANN, and other existing techniques. Such application of IWO makes the system highly efficient and robust.

This paper deals with the design of a 1-bit full adder using several adiabatic logic styles, which are derived from static CMOS logic, without a large change. The full adders are designed using 180nm technology parameters provided by predictive technology and simulated using HSPICE. The full adders designed are compared in terms of average power consumption with different values of load capacitance, temperature and input frequency. The different designs of full adder are also compared on the basis of propagation delay exhibit by them. It is found that, full adders designed with adiabatic logic styles tends to consume very low power in comparison to full adder designed with static CMOS logic. Under certain operating conditions, one of adiabatic designs of full adder achieves upto 74% power saving in comparison to the full adder designed with static CMOS logic.

The most obvious applications for which power consumption is critical are battery-powered applications, such as home thermostats and security systems, in which the battery must last for years. Low power also leads to smaller power supplies, less expensive batteries, and enables products to be powered by signal lines (such as fire alarm wires) lowering the cost of the end-product. As a result, low power consumption has become a key parameter of microcontroller designs. The purpose of this paper is to summarize, mainly by way of examples,what in our experience are the most trustful approaches to lowpower design. In other words, our contribution should not be intended as an exhaustive survey of the existing literature on low-power esign; rather, we would like to provide insights a designer can rely upon when power consumption is a critical constraint.We will focus on the reduction of power consumption on different technologies for different values of oicapacitance and also compare power saving in technologies.

High power consumption is one of the drawbacks of these circuits which can be reduced by using suitable architectures. Many versions of comparator are proposed to achieve desirable output in sub-micron and deep sub-micron design technologies. The selection of particular topology is dependent upon the requirements and applications of the design. Low power and high speed circuit design has emerged as a principal theme in today’s electronics industry. In this paper, a basic SA-ADC (successive approximation) is discussed as a proper choice for low power applications and comparison with other ADC architectures. Following with the study of design parameters of comparator, their architectures and its use in various applications.

Few important and vital parameters such as sizing of sleep transistor, mode transition energy, reduction of noise due to ground bounce, area, delay and noise margin are compared for different techniques. In charge recycling technique upto 43% of mode transition energy is saved and an average of 8.25%, 33.1% of reduction in positive and negative peak ground bounce is obtained respectively. Bin-Packaging technique for clustering gives more leakage saving (84%) with respect to cell-partitioning technique. Considering overall response, Dynamic forward body bias triode MTCMOS technique (DFBBL) is found to be the best for sequential circuit (32-bit shift register) and for combinational circuit (32-bit Brent kung adder), triple phase technique gives the best response. Digital triple phase technique improves the overall electrical quality by 9.15 times and overall tolerance to parameter variations by 183.1 times as compared to other slew rate modulation techniques. DFBBL technique gives ground bounce reduction upto 90% and it also reduces the active power consumption about 47.3%. The data stability of sequential circuits is improved by 16.92%.
