Theoretical system-level model for power-performance trade-off in VLSI microprocessor design

نویسنده

  • Mauro Olivieri
چکیده

This contribution provides a quantitative model of the relation between supply voltage scaling, sustainable cycle time, pipeline depth, instruction level parallelism and power dissipation. The analysis show that there is an optimal sizing of the target supply voltage and pipe stage complexity for power minimization subject to a performance constraint. The behavior of realistic processor implementation is analyzed in detail.

Design of High Gain, High Reverse Isolation and High Input Matched Narrowband LNA for GPS L1 Band Applications Using 0.18µm Technology

Design of Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver with a low noise amplifier (LNA) in the front end remains a major design requirement for the success of modern day navigation and communication system. Any LNA is expected to meet the requirements like its ability to add the least amount of noise while providing sufficient gain, perfect input and output matching, and high linearity. However, mo...

Stochastic Congestion Alleviation with a Trade-off between Demand Response Resources and Load Shedding

Under the smart grid environments, Demand Response Resources (DRRs) as power system resources can effectively participate in and improve performance of electric systems. Congestion management is one of the technical challenges in which DRRs can play a significant role. Previously, congestion management is applied without considering the power system uncertainties. Therefore, a stochastic conges...

Design of Low Power Vlsi Circuits Using Cascode Logic Style

Due to the trade-off between power, area and performance, various efforts have been done. This work is also based to reduce the power dissipation of the vlsi circuits with the performance upto the acceptable level. The dominant term in a well designed vlsi circuit is the switching power and low-power design thus becomes the task of minimizing this switching power. So, to design a low-power vlsi...

Challenges in Low Power Microprocessor Design

This paper addresses the challenge of controlling power dissipation in the microprocessor domain. System level power management architectures [I] have helped control chip-set and peripheral power substantially. But the consequence is that the CPUs are now the power limiters, especially in the mobile domain. This paper addresses two challenges in power reduction of high-performance CPUs. First w...
