Power gating is emerging as a viable solution to reduction of leakage current. However, power gated circuits are different from the conventional designs in the sense that a power-...
First-in first-out (FIFO) memories are widely used in SoC for data buffering and flow control. In this paper, a robust ultra-low power asynchronous FIFO memory is proposed. With s...
Modern FPGA architectures provide ample routing resources so that designs can be routed successfully. The routing architecture is designed to handle versatile connection configur...

: Power consumption in datapath modules due to redundant switching is an important design concern for high-performance applications. Operand isolation schemes are adopted to reduce...
Non-uniform utilization of functional units in combination with hardware mechanisms such as clock gating leads to different power consumptions in different parts of a processor ch...
