In this paper, we present power emulation, a novel design paradigm that utilizes hardware acceleration for the purpose of fast power estimation. Power emulation is based on the ob...
Limited Switch Dynamic Logic (LSDL), a high performance logic circuit, has been modified by introducing a pseudo-nMOS style load. The resultant circuit consumes less power, primar...
