Design Challenge |
|
Consumer products such as laptops, cell phones, etc., require ever-longer battery life and ever-higher performance, making power management a critical design issue |
|
At 90nm and below, increased leakage can mean that devices consume as much power when they are not in use as when they are being used |
|
Customers require proven low-power solutions, including physical IP |
|
Need a robust design flow that enables correct physical implementation and timing sign off for low-power designs |
Cadence Solution |
|
Dynamic-power reductions of 35-40%; leakage reductions of 14-39% |
|
Proved the MSMV flow on a real design, using Cadence technologies, and ARM Artisan IP |
|
Collaborated with both Accent and ARM to develop and test a new multiple-supply, multiple-voltage (MSMV), low-power design methodology |
|
Enhanced several key Cadence technologies to support MSMV methodology |
