Low-Power Sequential Access Memory Design
This paper presents the design and evaluation of a sequential access memory (SAM) that provides low power and high performance by replacing address decoders with special locally-communicating sequencers. A test chip containing one 16x16-b SAM and one 64x16-b SAM (consisting of four 16x16-b banks) has been designed, fabricated, and evaluated using a 0.25-μm CMOS process. With a clock frequency o...
متن کاملLow-Power Data Address Bus Encoding Method
Reducing power consumption of computer systems has gained much research attention recently. In a typical system, the memory bus power constitute will over 50% of all system power; and this power is required due to bus signal transitions (0 1 or 1 0). Reducing the number of memory bus transitions is hence an effective way to reduce system power. While many techniques deal with reducing bus power...
متن کاملAn Opcode Encoding Method for Low-Power Instruction Fetch
| In designing today's mobile embedded systems such as cellular phones and PDAs, power consumption is an important design constraint. In a CMOS circuit, switching activity accounts for over 90% of total power dissipation. In this paper, we describe a method of encoding opcodes for low-power instruction fetch by reducing the switching activity from the instruction fetch logic. To reduce the swit...
متن کاملLow Power March Memory Test Algorithm for Static Random Access Memories (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Memories are most important building blocks in many digital systems. As the Integrated Circuits requirements are growing, the test circuitry must grow as well. There is a need for more efficient test techniques with low power and high speed. Many Memory Built in Self-Test techniques have been proposed to test memories. Compared with combinational and sequential circuits memory testing utilizes ...
متن کاملA Bus Encoding Comparison for Low Power
With the continued scaling of digital circuits, power consumption is becoming an increasingly important issue. The power required to perform computations rapidly decreases, however the energy required to power large buses and interconnect has not been as fortunate. This is due to non-uniform scaling (aspect ratios increased [2]) and sidewall fringing effects. These buses can also have a capacit...
