Introduction to Low Power in the VLSI Chip Design and Techniques for Switching and Leakage Power Reduction

  Hello Dear Readers,   Today in this series of posts I will provide some deep insight into low-power VLSI design flow and the different techniques to reduce different components of power consumption. It’s no secret that power is emerging as the most critical issue in system-on-chip (SoC) design today. Power management is becoming an increasingly urgent problem for almost every category of design, as power density—measured in watts per square millimeter—rises at an alarming rate. From a chip-engineering perspective, effective energy management for an SoC must be built into the design starting at the architecture stage; and low-power techniques need to be employed at every stage of the design, from RTL to GDSII flow.  Fred Pollack of Intel first noted a rather alarming trend in his keynote at MICRO-32 in 1999. He made the now well-known observation that power density is increasing at an alarming rate, approaching that of the hottest man-made objects on the planet, an...

The Importance of 3D IC Ecosystem Collaboration in the VLSI Market

  Hello Dear Readers,   Today in this post I will provide some deep insight into what is happening in the semiconductor industry. So I hope you like it and enjoy it to improve your knowledge and awareness about the industry.  So let's start it today we are discussing, The Importance of 3D IC Ecosystem Collaboration in the VLSI Market. As design teams continue to develop new generations of transformative products, the demand for computing remains relentless. Modern workloads have brought packaging technologies to the forefront for innovation and pushed the boundaries for silicon product design in terms of product performance, function and cost. Not too long ago, packaging technologies were thought of as inconvenient back-end processes. But times have changed, and rising advancements in artificial intelligence, big data, cloud computing, and autonomous vehicles have pushed the computing envelope unlike ever before (along with the need for packaging technologi...
