: In a high performance microprocessor such as Digital's 300MHz Alpha 21164, the distribution of a high quality clock signal to all regions of the device is achieved using a c...
Increasing focus on power dissipation issues in current microprocessors has led to a host of proposals for clock gating and other power-saving techniques. While generally effectiv...
This paper presents a new logic style, named Current-Mode Differential logic (CMDL), that achieves both high operating speed and low power consumption. Inspired by the low-voltage ...
Energy-efficient microprocessor designs are one of the major concerns in both high performance and embedded processor domains. Furthermore, as process technology advances toward d...
Abstract - We propose an integrated archltectural/physicdplanning approach named priority assignment optimization to mioimize the current surge in high performance power eifkient c...
