This book carefully details design tools and techniques for realizing low power and energy efficiency in a highly productive design methodology.
Important topics include: - Microarchitectural techniques to reduce energy per operation - Power reduction with timing slack from pipelining - Analysis of the benefits of using multiple supply and threshold voltages - Placement techniques for multiple supply voltages - Verification for multiple voltage domains - Improved algorithms for gate sizing, and assignment of supply and threshold voltages -...

by Kurt Keutzer Those looking for a quick overview of the book should fast-forward to the Introduction in Chapter 1. What follows is a personal account of the creation of this book. The challenge from Earl Killian, formerly an architect of the MIPS processors and at that time Chief Architect at Tensilica, was to explain the significant performance gap between ASICs and custom circuits designed in the same process generation. The relevance of the challenge was amplified shortly thereafter by Andy Bechtolsheim, founder of Sun Microsystems and ubiquitous investor in the EDA industry. At a dinner...
