Zigbee system-on-chip (SoC) is an essential module in all advanced wireless devices and it is the alternating advanced technology over the conventional bluetooth technology. The gate power dissipation is high in conventional Zigbee SoC. In this paper, the power gating technique is proposed with retention logic inorder to reduce the leakage current in standby mode of Zigbee SoC. The proposed circuit is designed and simulated using TANNER tool. The performance of the proposed methodology is compared with conventional techniques interms of power consumption and average delay.
