An Expert System Based Tool for Pre-design Chip Power Estimation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The power specification of a chip is generally developed during the product conception stage. Engineers select technology libraries, IPs, and make architectural decisions by weighing them against the impact on the power budget. In this paper, we present a knowledge-base (KB) system for pre-design chip power estimation, which uses post-layout power information from previous designs. KB rules are then used to perform specification analysis of a new design, against the KB, to estimate its power. We demonstrate our power estimation technique on a LEON3 System-On-Chip (SoC) design. Keywords-Knowledge-Base System, Specification Analysis, Power modeling, Pre-design chip power

State estimation is the foundation of any control and decision making in power networks. The first requirement for a secure network is a precise and safe state estimator in order to make decisions based on accurate knowledge of the network status. This paper introduces a new estimator which is able to detect bad data with few calculations without need for repetitions and estimation residual cal...
متن کاملDesign of a Fuzzy Controller Chip with New Structure, Supporting Rational-Powered Membership Functions
In this paper, a new structure possessing the advantages of low-power consumption, less hardware and high-speed is proposed for fuzzy controller. The maximum output delay for general fuzzy logic controllers (FLC) is about 86 ns corresponding to 11.63 MFLIPS (fuzzy logic inference per second) while this amount of the delay in the designed fuzzy controller becomes 52ns that corresponds to 19.23 M...
متن کاملAn Energy-Aware Architectural Exploration Tool for ARM-Based SOCs
In recent years, power consumption has become a critical concern for many VLSI systems. Whereas several case studies demonstrate that technology-, layout-, and gate-level techniques offer power savings of a factor of two or less, architecture and system-level optimization can often result in orders of magnitude lower power consumption. Therefore, the energy-efficient design of portable, battery...
