With scaling of Vt sub-threshold leakage power is increasing and expected to become significant part of total power consumption.In present work three new configurations of level s...
Power dissipation is becoming the most challenging design constraint in nanometer technologies. Among various design implementation schemes, standard cell ASICs offer the best pow...

Using multiple supply voltages on a SoC design is an efficient way to achieve low power. However, it may lead to a complex power network and a huge number of level shifters if we j...
When a signal traverses on-chip voltage domains, a level shifter is required. Inverters can handle a high to low voltage shift with minimal leakage. For a low to high voltage leve...
We present a novel approach that minimizes the power consumption of embedded core-based systems through hardware/software partitioning. Our approach is based on the idea of mapping...
