Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Leakage power reduction techniques of dynamically reconfigurable processors by using Dual-Vth cells are proposed. Low speed Processing Elements (PEs) with high-Vth cells whose leakage power is low and High speed PEs with low-Vth cells whose leakage power is high are mixed in the same array. The maximum clock frequency of dynamically reconfigurable processor arrays is decided only with the critical path when the data flow graph of the target application is mapped. Thus, if the critical path can be mapped only on the low-Vth PEs, the leakage power can be reduced without degrading performance.
