Low Power Design in Digital Chips (Part 2)

Low Power Design in Digital Chips (Part 2)

Continuing from the previous article, a typical low power design in digital chips is the addition of a clock gate. Another method is through parallel and pipelining techniques. Parallel and Pipelining The prominent advantage of hardware description languages is the parallelism in instruction execution. Multiple statements can process several signal data in parallel within the … Read more

Low Power Design Techniques: Data Gating and Operand Isolation

Low Power Design Techniques: Data Gating (Data Gating) and Operand Isolation (Operand Isolation) Previously, we discussed Clock Gating (Clock Gating), which is a well-known low power design technique. It can be easily applied during the logic synthesis stage without requiring changes to the RTL, making it one of the more straightforward methods for achieving low … Read more
