Through advanced techniques such as low-power design and energy harvesting, VLSI designers ensure that wireless devices can operate for extended periods without needing frequent recharging. Moreover, ...

Low Power VLSI CMOS Design by DCG Technique. The demand for power-sensitive design has grown significantly in recent years due to tremendous growth in portable applications.

Creating optimal low-power designs involves making tradeoffs such as timing-versus-power and area-versus-power at different stages of the design flow. In order to enable designers to accurately and ...

The authors explain how the design is split into power domains, and they show how to apply the following advanced low-power techniques in turn: multi-supply voltage, power shutoff with state retention ...

The VLSI design cycle is partitioned into two phases i.e. front-end and back-end phases of the complete SoC design cycle from top level. While at front-end, most of the architectural specification, ...

Low-power IC design techniques have been around for quite a while. They weren’t always required, though they were nice to have. The rapid growth of the consumer market for battery-powered ...

Northwestern Engineering’s Jie Gu and members of his Very Large-Scale Integration (VLSI) Lab are developing artificial intelligence chips, specialized accelerator hardware designed to perform AI tasks ...

Dey, Sukanta, Sukumar Nandi, and Gaurav Trivedi. Machine Learning for VLSI CAD: A Case Study in On-Chip Power Grid Design.” 2021 IEEE Computer Society Annual Symposium on VLSI (ISVLSI). IEEE, 2021.

Its “low power consumption results from a optimised interference-resilient Rx architecture, coupled with a digital polar transmitter architecture”, said Imec. Also for power reduction, the PLL is an ...
