Abstract—Interconnects (wires, buffers, clock distribution networks, multiplexers and busses) consume a significant fraction of total circuit power. In this work, we demonstrat...
—In this paper, we propose a robust register-transfer level (RTL) power modeling methodology for functional units. Our models are consistently accurate over a wide range of input...
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...
This paper presents an eective multiple clocking scheme for lower power RTL circuit design. The basis is to partition a behavioral description of the circuit into m modules fed b...

In this paper dual-K (DKCMOS) technology is proposed as a method for gate leakage power reduction. An integer linear programming (ILP) based algorithm is proposed for its optimiza...
