Title
MTTF-aware design methodology of error prediction based adaptively voltage-scaled circuits.
Abstract
Adaptive voltage scaling is a promising approach to overcome manufacturing variability, dynamic environmental fluctuation, and aging. This paper focuses on error prediction based adaptive voltage scaling (EP-AVS) and proposes an MTTF-aware design methodology for EP-AVS circuits. Main contributions of this work include (1) optimization of both voltage-scaled circuit and voltage control logic, and (2) quantitative evaluation of voltage reduction for practically long MTTF. Evaluation results show that the proposed EP-AVS design methodology achieves 20.8% voltage reduction while satisfying target MTTF.
