Estimating switching activity is a crucial step in optimizing circuits for low power. In this paper, a fast gate level switching activity estimator for combinational circuits will...
— Low-power consumption has become a highly important concern for synchronous standard-cell design, and consequently mandates the use of low-power design methodologies and techni...
A low-transition test pattern generator, called the low-transition linear feedback shift register (LT-LFSR), is proposed to reduce the average and peak power of a circuit during te...

This paper presents a novel approach for the synthesis of dynamic CMOS circuits using Domino and Nora styles. As these logic styles can implement only non-inverting logic, convent...
In this paper, we address the problem of power dissipation minimization in combinational circuits implemented using pass transistor logic (PTL). We transform the problem of power ...
