MINIMIZING POWER CONSUMPTION IN ASYNCHRONOUS DATAFLOW ARCHITECTURES |
摘要 |
A digital signal processing apparatus includes a digital circuit device having one or more elements configured to process digital data; a power supply configured to deliver a controllable operating voltage for the one or more elements; control logic configured to receive feedback signals from each of the one or more elements, the feedback signals indicative of a rate at which data is moving through each individual element; and the control logic configured to output a control signal to the power supply so as to cause the power supply to reduce the operating voltage for the one or more elements responsive to a decreasing workload detected therein, and to cause the power supply to increase the operating voltage for the one or more pipelines responsive to an increasing workload detected therein. |

1. A digital signal processing apparatus, comprising:
a digital circuit device having one or more elements configured to process digital data; a power supply configured to deliver a controllable operating voltage for the one or more elements; control logic configured to receive feedback signals from each of the one or more elements, the feedback signals indicative of a rate at which data is moving through each individual element; and the control logic configured to output a control signal to the power supply so as to cause the power supply to reduce the operating voltage for the one or more elements responsive to a decreasing workload detected therein, and to cause the power supply to increase the operating voltage for the one or more pipelines responsive to an increasing workload detected therein. |
