Gating the clock is an important technique used in low power design to disable unused modules of a circuit. Gating can save power by both preventing unnecessary activiiy in the lo...
Recognizing speech, gestures, and visual features are important interface capabilities for future embedded mobile systems. Unfortunately, the real-time performance requirements of...
Structured ASICs provide an exciting middle ground between FPGA and ASIC design methodologies. Compared to ASIC, structured ASIC based designs require lower non recurring engineer...
In recent years several successful GALS realizations have been presented. The core of a GALS system is a locally synchronous island that is designed using industry standard synchr...
Power dissipation is becoming the most challenging design constraint in nanometer technologies. Among various design implementation schemes, standard cell ASICs offer the best pow...
