Clock gating is the insertion of combinational logic along the clock path to prevent the unnecessary switching of registers and reduce dynamic power consumption. The conditions un...
: 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...
With the aggressive scaling of the CMOS technology parametric variation of the transistor threshold voltage causes significant spread in the circuit delay as well as leakage spect...
Power dissipation is becoming the most challenging design constraint in nanometer technologies. Among various design implementation schemes, standard cell ASICs offer the best pow...
