Today's process technologies place emphasis on low power design in multi-core systems that require the complicate communication networks-on-chip (NoC) architecture to be reliable. Considering the many error control codes (ECCs) implemented in a hardware NoC router, the primary objective of this paper is accounting for the causes of energy consumed for fault tolerance and providing a way of comparison...
Minimizing power consumption is vitally important in embedded system design; power consumption determines battery lifespan. Ultra- low-power designs may even permit embedded systems to operate without batteries, e.g., by scavenging energy from the environment. Moreover, managing power dissipation is now a key factor in integrated circuit packaging and cooling. As a result, embedded system price, size,...
Light-weight embedded systems are now gaining more popularity due to the recent technological advances in fabrication that have resulted in more powerful tiny processors with greater communication capabilities that pose various scientific challenges for researchers. Perhaps the most significant challenge is the energy consumption concern and reliability, mainly due to the small size of batteries....
We propose a synergistic temperature and energy management scheme for GALS processors. Localized DVS is applied in domains that contain hotspots, permitting other critical domains to run unabated, thereby reducing performance cost relative to global DVS, and also creating execution slack in peripheral cooler domains that can be exploited to save energy. The reduction in energy in turn creates a steeper...
In this paper, we identify the key challenges that oppose sub-threshold circuit design and describe fabricated chips that verify techniques for overcoming the challenges
Substantial increase in leakage current and threshold voltage fluctuations are making design of robust wide fan-in dynamic gates a challenging task. Traditionally, a PMOS keeper transistor has been employed to compensate for leakage current of pull down (NMOS) network. However, to maintain acceptable noise margin level in sub-100 nm technologies, large PMOS is necessary, which results in substantial...
