We present minimization methodologies and an algorithm for simultaneous scheduling, binding, and allocation for the reduction of total power and power fluctuation during behaviora...
As VLSI technology reaches 45nm technology node, leakage power optimization has become a major design challenge. Threshold voltage (vt) assignment has been extensively studied, du...
Clock skew scheduling has been traditionally considered as a tool for improving the clock period in a sequential circuit. Timing slack is "stolen" from fast combinationa...
- The Multi-Threshold CMOS (MTCMOS) technology has become a popular technique for standby power reduction. This technology utilizes high-Vth sleep transistors to reduce subthreshol...
Adaptive body biasing (ABB) is a powerful technique that allows post-silicon tuning of individual manufactured dies such that each die optimally meets the delay and power constrai...
