Design of Interconnected Bus for Low Power Based on Boolean Process

Abstract

In this paper, the authors propose an interconnected bus power consumption model based on Boolean process, which includes the self transition power dissipated on the signal lines and the coupled transition power dissipated between adjacent signal lines. A heuristic algorithm is presented to determine a physical order of signal lines and adjust the distance between adjacent signal lines. Simulation results show that the proposed technique achieves better reduction in terms of power consumption compared to existing methods
