  • System-Level Low Power Design – What Will it Take to Move There?

    While many low-power design techniques are available to IC designers, the greatest potential for power savings is at the system level, where both software and hardware can be considered. So what's standing in the way of system-level low power design, and what needs to happen to make it practical...

  • Don’t Blow Up Your Chip on the Tester!

    The photo at right shows a test socket and chip destroyed by thermal runaway. Can this really happen? Yes, it can and it sometimes does, if test power is significantly greater than functional power. To get a handle on this problem I talked to Bassilios Petrakis, product marketing director for Design...

  • Webinar Report: Power-Aware Mixed-Signal Verification

    Most of the discussion about low-power design techniques has focused on digital circuits. However, nearly all systems-on-chip (SoCs) are mixed-signal, and the way in which analog and digital circuitry interact has a huge impact on overall power consumption. Thus, low power (or "power aware"...

  • What’s Next in Low Power?

    Low power has become a major consideration in chip design in almost all applications. One major achievement of the industry over the past a few years is the alignment on the low power design methodology, which was considered as the biggest hurdle to automate advanced low power design techniques. No matter...

  • Webinar Report: Solving Mixed-Signal Power Grid Challenges

    Complex analog/mixed-signal ICs pose many power grid design and analysis challenges. Unanticipated IR drop and electromigration problems are commonplace, and they significantly impact circuit behavior. But as a recently archived webinar shows, there are a number of ways to minimize these problems, even...
