Power Reduction Technique Parallelism in circuitsusing duplication of logic ELEC 6270 By Sreekumar Menon
OUTLINE • Problem Definition • Steps for Implementation • Background Information • Experimental Results • Theoretical Results • Conclusion • Lessons
Problem Definition • Design a 32 bit adder with parallelism • Operational speed must be the same (throughput constant) • Show it to be an effective Power reduction scheme
Implementation Technique • MODELSim, Leonardo, Design Architect, Eldo • Technology used ami 0.5 • Delay calculation( 50 % of the rise time) • VHDL/Verilog • http://www.amis.com/pdf/process_specifications/c5_ss.pdf
Theoretical Calculations • Power = CVDD2 • The Delay versus Voltage graph can be used for interpolating the voltage levels for various degrees of parallelism
Conclusions • Parallelism is an effective power reduction technique • However, it causes extra designing effort • The theoretical calculations do not exactly match because the overhead hasn’t been taken into account in it
Lessons • Patience!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
