Statistical Estimation of the Switching Activity in Digital Circuits
Higher levels of integration have led to a generation of integrated circuits for which power dissipation and reliability are major design concerns. In CMOS circuits, both of these problems are directly related to the extent of circuit switching activity. The average number of transitions per second at a circuit node is a measure of switching activity that has been called the transition density....
متن کاملDigital Circuits Delay Analysis
The speed of digital circuit is one of the most restricting factors in the deep sub-micron and multigigahertz integrated circuits design. It is directly dependent on the circuit delay. Scaling down the technologies and increasing the operational frequency make the delay problems more important. This paper studies the delay in digital circuits, starting from the design process, scaling down the ...
متن کاملAutomated energy calculation and estimation for delay-insensitive digital circuits
With increasingly smaller feature sizes and higher on-chip densities, the power dissipation of VLSI systems has become a primary concern for designers. This paper first describes a procedure to simulate a transistor-level design using a VHDL testbench, and then presents a fast and efficient energy estimation approach for delay-insensitive (DI) systems, based on gate-level switching. Specificall...
متن کاملFault Injection in Digital Logic Circuits at the VHDL Level
This paper presents hardware-based techniques for transient and permanent fault injection in VHDL descriptions of both combinational and sequential digital circuits. The designer can choose the fault injection rate, which may vary from 100% (permanent fault) down to .01% (transient fault).
متن کاملAverage Power in Digital CMOS Circuits using Least Square Estimation
Power estimation is an important issue in digital VLSI circuit design. The estimation of average power dissipation of a circuit through exhaustive simulation is impractical due to the large number of primary inputs and their combinations. In this paper, two algorithms based on least square estimation are proposed for determining the average power dissipation in CMOS circuits. Least square estim...
