While power consumption has become an important design constraint very few reports of power analysis of processors are available in the literature. The processor considered is an experimental integration of a 16-bit DSP and a 32-bit RISC microcontroller, ERDI. Simulation based power analysis on a back annotated design is used to obtain data for a set of DSP application kernels and synthetic benchmarks.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
