- 详细技术说明
- A new “zero-delay” latency hiding wakeup technique for power gated asynchronous circuits was developed that leverages the robustness of asynchronous circuits to delays and supply voltage variations, and can be used with any of the existing power gating schemes.
- *Abstract
-
A new “zero-delay” latency hiding wakeup technique for power gated asynchronous circuits was developed at Cornell. The technology leverages the robustness of asynchronous circuits to delays and supply voltage variations, and can be used with any of the existing power gating schemes.
Potential Commercial Applications:
- Processors, particularly low power, low duty cycle applications, e.g.:
- Sensor networks
- USB devices
- Digital controls
- Communication systems
Advantages:
- Reduces power leakage in asynchronous circuits
- Zero-delay wakeup of pipeline from sleep mode
- Minimizes voltage fluctuation due to wake-up
- Power gating scheme agnostic
