Power consumption from logic circuits, interconnections, dock distribution, on chip memories, and off chip driving in CMOS VLSI is estimated. Estimation methods are demonstrated and verified. An estimate tool is created. Power consumption distribution between ~ I I ~ I T O M ~ C ~ ~ O I W , clock distribution, logic gates, memories, and off chip driving are analyzed by examples. Comparisons are...

Modern GPUs are true power houses in every meaning of the word: While they offer general-purpose (GPGPU) compute performance an order of magnitude higher than that of conventional CPUs, they have also been rapidly approaching the infamous “power wall”, as a single chip sometimes consumes more than 300W. Thus, the design space of GPGPU microarchitecture has been extended by another dimension: po...

This paper addresses the timely issue of modeling and analysis of custom power controllers, a new generation of power electronics-based equipment aimed at enhancing the reliability and quality of power flows in lowvoltage distribution networks .The modeling approach is graphical in nature, as opposed to mathematical models embedded in code using a high-level computer language. The well-develope...

In this paper, we propose a circuit that computes the area under a difference waveform and produces it's analog value as output. The transient waveforms pair from which the difference is computed is given as input to the circuit. The circuit is proposed as a hardware solution for a device testing technique called Transient Signal Analysis.
