| Low Power Architecture Exploration for ASIC Algorithm Implementation |
|
Overview:
With today's advanced low power design requirements it is becoming more and more critical to have proper insight into power consumption early in the design flow. Algorithm and datapath-intensive designs often have architecture tradeoffs which have huge impact on the power profile of the implementation. Thus it is important to properly estimate the power consumption of these alternate architectures quickly and accurately, in addition to analyzing the timing and area results. This webinar will demonstrate using the Synphony high level synthesis tool to do architectural power exploration within days of a having a high level algorithm model in MATLAB or Simulink. The analysis includes timing, area, and power consumption of various multi-rate architectures using Design Compiler and PrimeTime-PX.
This seminar will illustrate how to:
- Synthesize multiple architectures from high level models and MATLAB code
- Use MATLAB scripts and Synphony HLS to quickly generate testbenches for activity data (SAIF) and power analysis
- Explore the power impact of different multi-rate clocking strategies
- Optimize memory implementation using compiled memories
- Perform accurate power analysis using advanced features in VCS, Design Compiler, and PrimeTime-PX
- Deliver comprehensive power exploration within days of algorithm high level model availability
Who should attend:
System architects and engineers, algorithm and DSP designers, hardware and verification engineers who are responsible for implementing algorithms in ASIC or FPGA requiring low power implementation.
