Programmable routing and logic in field-programmable gate arrays are implemented using nMOS pass transistors. Since the threshold voltage drop across an nMOS device degrades the ...
In this paper we present an ecient technique to reduce the switching activity in a CMOS combinational logic network based on local logic transformations. These transformations con...
—In this paper we study the effectiveness of two power gating methods – transistor switches and MEMS switches – in reducing the power consumption of a design with a certain t...
This paper deals with low-energy code generation for a highly optimized digital signal processor designed for mobile communication applications. We present a genetic algorithm bas...
