ABSTRACT:
A circuit having a local power block for leakage reduction is disclosed. The circuit has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is configured to operate at a substantially greater operating frequency than the operating frequency of the second portion. The second portion has a local power block configured to decouple the second portion if the second portion is inactive to reduce leakage current associated with the second portion without sacrificing performance of the first portion.
