Reducing leakage power in peripheral circuits of L2 caches
Leakage power has grown significantly and is a major challenge in microprocessor design. Leakage is the dominant power component in second-level (L2) caches. This paper presents t...

Reducing Leakage through Filter Cache
We evaluate the leakage reduction for both instruction and data cache in presence of drowsy or decay techniques. We discovered that a filter cache, traditionally used for reducing...

Leakage Power Optimization Techniques for Ultra Deep Sub-Micron Multi-Level Caches
On-chip L1 and L2 caches represent a sizeable fraction of the total power consumption of microprocessors. In deep sub-micron technology, the subthreshold leakage power is becoming...

Implications of technology scaling on leakage reduction techniques
The impact of technology scaling on three run-time leakage reduction techniques (Input Vector Control, Body Bias Control and Power Supply Gating) is evaluated by determining limit...
