A Method of Reducing the CMOS Power During the Physical Design Stage of Digital Integrated Circuit
The method to reduce the CMOS power during the physical design stage is disucssed in this paper
utilizing the SoC instance of an image processing design.Firstly
the placement locations of the PAD and macro cells were adjusted and the power planning was optimized.As a result
an intermediate layout with lower voltage drop is gained
which reduces the CMOS power indirectly.Secondly
the file of switching activity ratio planned and the power optimization instructions set are applied on the intermediate layout
and the CMOS power is directly reduced.Finally
simulation results show that the method has saved the power 10.92%.The SoC instance chip entity has passed the test on the ATE and the power meets the design expection.
