Abstract:

In this paper we propose a bipartition dual-encoding architecture for low power pipelined circuit. Pipelined circuits consist of combinational logic blocks separated by registers which usually consume a large amount of power Although the clock gated technique is a promising approach to reduce switching activities of the pipelined registers, this approach is restricted by the placement of the registers and the additional control signals that must be generated. Thus, we propose a technique for optimizing power dissipation of a pipelined circuit addressing registers and combinational logic blocks at the same time. Our approach modifies the registers using bipartition and encoding techniques. In our experiments power consumption were reduced by 72.9% for pipelined registers and 30.4% for the total pipelined stage on average.
