Power and Performance analysis using Multibit Technology

Abstract

The implementation of deep submicron technology has resulted in increased devices on chip making power management a challenging task during design cycle. There are many different techniques developed to reduce the power consumption. Clock-gating, Voltage and frequency scaling, power gating etc. are some of the techniques used to reduce power consumption. Multibit technology is also used widely to help reduce the power. The reduction of power comes with compromise in performance of the integrated circuit. The paper analyses power and performance of face detection chips when multibit is used.
