SoC design has a number of techniques for power management. One of the more prevalent methods is to use power gating to turn on and off blocks based on applications being run, and mode controls. Power ...

Low power or power efficiency is a key design requirement for nanometer designs today. The market for consumer and wireless devices is rapidly changing, driven by the convergence of applications, ...

SAN FRANCISCO—It's not like there's a universally agreed-upon definition of the term "embedded," but of the universe of definitions that I'd seen prior to Tuesday's Intel Developer Forum keynote by ...

Although methodologies for power network synthesis typically assume that design tools can freely size sleep transistors for power gating, this assumption does not hold up for real-world SoC designs ...

A new technical paper titled “ReGate: Enabling Power Gating in Neural Processing Units” was published by researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. “The energy efficiency of neural ...

In this paper, the authors aim at reducing power and energy dissipation in Transmission Gate Logic (TGL) multiplexer CMOS circuits comprise of reducing the power supply voltages, power supply current ...

Engineers have proposed a method of cutting power use and costs in computer processors. Called fine-grained power gating, the method would shut off energy to unused portions of datapath and memory ...

Clock gating is one of the most frequently used techniques in RTL to reduce dynamic power consumption without affecting the functionality of the design. One method involves inserting gating conditions ...

This paper discusses about the intelligent low power techniques such as context based clock gating and how they are useful for IoT applications. It also describes how it improves the overall power ...

With the evolution of Internet of Things, the requirement for ultra-low power systems have increased. To design a low power system, we must apply all the possible low power methods at each level of ...
