Abstract
The scaling limits of supply voltage (Vdd) in stochastic computing are investigated based on foundry-level 16/14nm FinFET technology, considering inherent, static and transient variations. Circuit functionality, EDP, arithmetic error are examined, indicating that transient variation induced arithmetic bias is the dominating factor.
