Research of low power design techniques for microprocessor
Yang Xinfeng, Guo Yongli, Kecheng Liu · 2011
With the rapid increase of scale and complication of a single chip in microprocessor, the ultra high power density impacts the system stability seriously. This paper presents the power source of microprocessor, analysis the power characteristic of microprocessor; propose the principle for low power design, discusses several typical power optimization techniques in different abstract level. At last, the development trend of the low power design of microprocessor in the future is prospected.
