With increasing demands for high performance by embedded systems, especially by digital signal processing applications, embedded processors must increase available instruction lev...
IDDQ test is a valuable test method for semiconductor manufacturers. However, its effectiveness is reduced for deep sub-micron technology chips due to rising background leakage. C...
This paper presents a very efficient and versatile method to handle Dynamic Voltage Scaling for minimizing energy consumption in an embedded system processor while maintaining rea...
{A new low-power design method produces CMOS circuits that consume the least dynamic power at the highest speed permitted under the technology constraint. A gate is characterized b...
