Abstract

Rapid increases in chip complexity, increasingly faster clocks, and the proliferation of portable devices have combined to make power dissipation an important design parameter. The power dissipated by a digital system determines its heat dissipation as well as battery life. For some designs, power has become the most constringent constraint. Power reduction methods have been proposed at all levels — from system to device.
