Prompted by demands for portability and low-cost packaging, the electronics industry has begun to view power consumption as a critical design criteria. As such there is a growing ...
We present techniques for estimating switching activity and power consumption in register-transfer level (RTL) circuits. Previous work on this topic has ignored the presence of gl...
New measures of peak power in the context of sequential circuits are proposed. This paper presents an automatic procedure to obtain very good lower bounds on these measures as wel...
