Integrating dynamic voltage/frequency scaling and adaptive body biasing using test-time voltage selection |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
Adaptive body biasing is a promising technique for addressing increasing process variability, but it also provides new opportunities for reducing power when combined with dynamic voltage/frequency scaling. Limitations of existing ABB/DVFS proposals are explored, and a new scheme, test-time voltage selection (TTVS), is presented. By delaying the mapping between frequency and supply voltage until test, variability information can be incorporated into the VDD selection process. For a 16-core chip-multiprocessor implemented in a high-performance predictive 22 nm technology, TTVS results in 18% power savings over independent ABB/DVFS and 11% power savings over the best of several previously proposed ABB/DVFS schemes. |
