Low Power Analysis of Network-Level On-chip communication using Asynchronous AMBA protocol

چکیده
Network on-chip (NoC) is a novel structural design template, which can be defied for complicated system level on-chip design. NoC has a potential to limit and present the bus-based communication. In this paper, the crisis to discuss is Low power consumption in an Asynchronous Network on-chip (NoC) level communication. NoC is implemented using FPGA which has less fabrication cost and reduces the complexity. An Asynchronous NoC has been implemented in Spartan kit using Xilinx FPGA ISE tools and its network interface is Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture (AMBA) which features numerous bus masters and a sole clock edge evolution and so on. Here the AMBA high performance 32-bit AHB bus is employed in which it has a high clock frequency system and it is the heart of our bus system. To accomplish low power consumption by interfacing SoC with AMBAAHB protocol. The AHB model and an Asynchronous NoC are employed and executed using VHDL programming module.

متن کاملAsynchronous on-chip networks
Various kinds of asynchronous interconnect and synchronisation mechanisms are being proposed for designing low power, low emission and high-speed SOCs. They facilitate modular design and possess greater resilience to fabrication time inter-chip and run-time intra-chip process variability. They can provide a solution for low power consumption in chips and simplify global timing assumptions, e.g....
