Power Estimation in Sequential Circuitsy

چکیده
A new method for power estimation in sequential circuits is presented that is based on a statistical estimation technique. By applying randomly generated input sequences to the circuit, statistics on the latch outputs are collected, by simulation, that allow e cient power estimation for the whole design. An important advantage of this approach is that the desired accuracy can be speci ed up-front by the user; the algorithm iterates until the speci ed accuracy is achieved. This has been implemented and tested on a number of sequential circuits and found to be much faster than existing techniques. We can complete the analysis of a circuit with 1,452 ipops and 19,253 gates in about 4.6 hours (the largest test case reported previously has 223 ipops).

Sequential estimation of linear combinations of the location and scale parameters in negative exponential distribution
Sequential estimation is used where the total sample size is not fix and the problem cannot solve with this fixed sample size. Sequentially estimating the mean in an exponential distribution (one and two parameter), is an important problem which has attracted attentions from authors over the years. These largely addressed an exponential distribution involving a single or two parameters. In t...
متن کاملEstimation of Peak Sustainable Power Consumption for Sequential Cmos Circuits
The reliability and the cost of electronic circuits are closely connected to the maximum power dissipated by them. Tools for evaluating the worst case power consumption of sequential circuits is becoming a primal concern for designers of low-power circuits. In the paper the task of estimation of peak sustainable power for CMOS synchronous sequential circuit is considered when its automaton desc...
متن کاملPower Estimation Under User-Specified Input Sequences and Programs
We describe an approach to estimate the average power dissipation in sequential logic circuits under user-specified input sequences or programs. This approach will aid the design of programmable controllers or processors, by enabling the estimation of the power dissipated when the controller or processor is running specific application programs. Current approaches to sequential circuit power es...
متن کاملOptimal Capacitor Allocation in Radial Distribution Networks for Annual Costs Minimization Using Hybrid PSO and Sequential Power Loss Index Based Method
In the most recent heuristic methods, the high potential buses for capacitor placement are initially identified and ranked using loss sensitivity factors (LSFs) or power loss index (PLI). These factors or indices help to reduce the search space of the optimization procedure, but they may not always indicate the appropriate placement of capacitors. This paper proposes an efficient approach for t...
متن کاملBayesin estimation and prediction whit multiply type-II censored sample of sequential order statistics from one-and-two-parameter exponential distribution
In this article introduce the sequential order statistics. Therefore based on multiply Type-II censored sample of sequential order statistics, Bayesian estimators are derived for the parameters of one- and two- parameter exponential distributions under the assumption that the prior distribution is given by an inverse gamma distribution and the Bayes estimator with respect to squared error loss ...
