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-...
We present an integer-linear-programming-based approach for estimating the maximum instantaneous current through the power supply lines for CMOS circuits. It produces the exact so...
In this paper we present an input pattern independent method to compute the maximum current envelope, which is an upper bound over all possible current waveforms drawn by a circui...
