In this paper, a new type of Petri net called Hierarchical Colored Hardware Petri net, to model real-delay switching activity for power estimation is proposed. The logic circuit i...
As power consumption of the clock tree dominates over 40% of the total power in modern high performance VLSI designs, measures must be taken to keep it under control. One of the m...
Abstract--Design of a suitable power gating (e.g., multithreshold CMOS or super cutoff CMOS) structure is an important and challenging task in sub-90nm VLSI circuits where leakage ...
Modern digital circuits consist of logic gates implemented in the complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology. The time taken for a logic gate output to change after...
