Abstract

In this paper, a voltage island aware framework is proposed for low power design of application specific NoC (LPASNoC). Through a three-phase processing including voltage island generation, VI-driven floorplanning and post-floorplan processing, the total power consumption, design cost and total wire length can be optimized. Experimental results show that compared to traditional ASNoC, the proposed method can reduce total core power by about 34.5% and chip area by about 26.8% without increasing communication power.
