    A High Level Synthesis Scheme and Its Realization for Low Power Design in VLSI

    • 摘要: 提出VLSI高层综合设计方案,该方案基于多电压在时间及资源约束条件下,综合考虑了调度及互连,从调度互连两个角度达到低功耗的目的.该方案提出了基于Gain大小搜索的调度,将功耗增益、灵活度和行为执行密度因素作为折中函数,考虑操作的属性更加全面.在互连中基于分布式的RS互连模型得出互连单元在执行时段里的动态功耗,同时考虑单根总线上的翻转和邻线的耦合.该方案在CDFG工具包中实现并证明了它的有效性.

       

      Abstract: Power consumption is one of the most important problems used in electronic systems today. High level synthesis can quickly trade off different objectives for complex designs during architecture optimization. A design at high level synthesis in VLSI includes two important tasks: scheduling and interconnection. In order to lower power in design, the two aspects can be considered simultaneously. In this paper, a high level synthesis scheme based on multiple voltages is proposed for low power design in VLSI under the timing and the resource constraints. In this scheme both scheduling and interconnection are considered to reduce power. First, for a given control and data flow graph, scheduling is done in Gain. Then the buses are allocated by interconnection consumption. The register transfer level graph can be optimized by the scheme in the end. In Gain scheduling, the priority function includes the power gain, the mobility, and the computation density of an operation which are three main factors in VLSI design. In interconnection, the transition activities on the signal lines and the coupling capacitances of the lines are considered simultaneously based on RS model. This scheme is implemented in CDFG Toolkits. Experiments with a number of DSP benchmarks show that the proposed scheme achieves an effective energy reduction.
