Battery-Powered Digital CMOS Design
In this paper, we consider the problem of maximizing the battery life (or duration of service) in battery-powered CMOS circuits. We first show that the battery efficiency (or utili...

State re-encoding for peak current minimization
In a synchronous finite state machine (FSM), huge current peaks are often observed at the moment of state transition. Previous low power state encoding algorithms focus on the red...

Leakage power-aware clock skew scheduling: converting stolen time into leakage power reduction
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...

Prioritized Prime Implicant Patterns Puzzle for Novel Logic Synthesis and Optimization
Compare CMOS Logic with Pass-Transistor Logic, a question was raised in our mind: "Does any rule exist that contains all good?" This paper reveals novel logic synthesis ...
