Low Power System Design by Combining Software Prefetching and Dynamic voltage Scaling
Performance-enhancement techniques improve CPU speed at the cost of other valuable system resources such as power and energy. Software prefetching is one such tech21 nique, tolerating memory latency for high performance. In this article, we quantitatively study this technique’s impact on system performance and power/energy consumption. 23 First, we demonstrate that software prefetching achieves...
متن کاملDynamic Voltage Scaling and the Design of a Low-Power Microprocessor System
This paper describes the design of a low-power microprocessor system that can run between 8Mhz at 1.1V and 100MHz at 3.3V. The ramifications of Dynamic Voltage Scaling, which allows the processor to dynamically alter its operating voltage at run-time, will be presented along with a description of the system design and an approach to benchmarking. In addition, a more in-depth discussion of the c...
متن کاملSimultaneous Voltage Scaling and Gate Sizing for Low-Power Design
This paper presents a new approach using simultaneous voltage-scaling and gate-sizing for low power without violating the timing constraints. We provide the problem formulation in this application, and propose algorithms for single voltagescaling, single gate-sizing, and their simultaneous manipulation. We target a globally optimal solution by showing how the power optimization is related to th...
متن کاملDynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling for Power- Constrained Design using Process Voltage and Temperature Sensor Circuits
In deeply scaled CMOS technologies, two major non-ideal factors are threatening the survival of the CMOS; i) PVT (process, voltage, and temperature) variations and ii) leakage power consumption. In this paper, we propose a novel postsilicon tuning methodology to scale optimum voltage and frequency “dynamically”. The proposed design technique will use our PVT sensor circuits to monitor the varia...
متن کاملDesign of A Low - Voltage and Low - Power Voltage Mode
A low-voltage and low-power voltage mode adder/subtractor using MOSFETs in weakinversion is presented in this paper. Since the MOSFETs in the proposed circuit are biased in weak inversion, consequently its power dissipation is very low. The proposed circuit has been simulated with the HSPICE using a N-well 0.35μm 2p4m process and the results show that, under the supply voltage of 1V, the power ...
