Reducing dynamic power consumption, improving battery life, and ultimately reducing the carbon footprint of a device without any compromise on performance is becoming one of the most important ...

With shrinking technologies, rapid multiplication of clock frequencies, and increasing emphasis on power reduction, low-power design is taking on a vital role. Design teams can no longer afford to ...

With so much buzz around low power wearable electronics, designers are looking to save every last nanowatt of power in their design. Clock gating, which arguably is the most efficient and most simple ...

This paper presents a low power Clock Gating scheme for clock power improvement that reduces power dissipation by deactivating the clock signal to an inactive value (for clock gating cell) when clock ...

Among the perennial challenges of advanced-node IC design is power reduction. Clock trees are now the single largest source of dynamic power consumption, which makes clock tree synthesis (CTS) and ...

Multisource CTS represents a new clock-distribution technology that fills the methodology gap between conventional CTS and pure clock mesh. Whereas pure clock mesh delivers the best possible clock ...
