Outline • Overview – Power model – Low-power design techniques • Low Power Logic Synthesis • Switching Activity Reduction – Sequential – Combinational • Retiming-Based Approach • Preliminary Results • Conclusion and Future Work NCHUCS 2
Power Model • Total power P total = P s + P d + P sc – P s : Static power due to leakage current – P d : Short circuit current due to switching transient – P d : Charge and discharge of capacitance • Dynamic power (P d ) is usually the dominant factor in CMOS technology NCHUCS 3
