In this thesis, selective power-down techniques are used for system level optimization. Using these techniques, parts of the system that are idle in every clock cycle are disabled, thus reducing dynamic switching power. This concept is implemented by clock gating, control-signal gating and disabling output bus drivers. These three techniques were used separately in the execution unit of a DLX-based microprocessor. A quantitative analysis of power savings and trade offs were made based on simulations of their schematic implementations. A new optimization procedure that uses all three techniques to maximize dynamic switching power reduction is also proposed and implemented resulting in up to 37% power savings. The resulting power savings and area overhead of the optimized designs obtained from both schematic and layout implementations were analyzed and compared Subject Added Entry - Topical Term Switching power supplies   Low voltage integrated circuits   RISC microprocessors   Gating system Collection Category FI   UP Location UP DENG-II LG 995 2003 E64 B36 e2000000352 Room-Use Only 2003 E-498T   UP DARCHIVES LG 995 2003 E64 B36 Regular Circulation UARD-10415T   UP DENG-II LG 995 2003 E64 B36 e2000000352 Room-Use Only 2003 E-498T Textual Physical Form Designator Thesis           Physical Location University of the Philippines Diliman Main Library: University Archives LG 995 2003 E64 / B36 Diliman: College of Engineering Library II LG 995 2003 E64 / B36           Digital Copy Not Available          Add to Book Cart  |   Download MARC
