A method and apparatus are provided for implementing subthreshold leakage current reduction in limited switch dynamic logic (LSDL). A limited switch dynamic logic circuit includes a cross-coupled NAND and inverter logic. A dynamic node provides a first input to the NAND. A sleep signal provides a second input to the NAND. An output of the NAND provides an input to the inverter logic that inverts the NAND output and provides a complementary output. The NAND logic includes a series connected first sleep transistor receiving the sleep input. The first sleep transistor is turned OFF during the sleep mode. A second sleep transistor is connected between a voltage supply rail and the NAND output. The second sleep transistor is turned ON during the sleep mode to force high the NAND output and force low complementary output.
