| Abstract(in English) | In order to reduce overall power consumption, architects need to consider power consumption from early stages of design processes. The aim of this study is to provide simple power consumption models that can be incorporated into cycle-level architecture simulators. A former related study did not conduct detailed power analyses on each module, but it treated each module as whether being operated or not. Designing a Content Addressable Memory (CAM) and evaluating power consumption in detail using SPICE, the authors have introduced a power evaluation function that shows how power consumption varies according to the data patterns. It has been confirmed that the proposed power estimation function provide detailed power consumption estimates that depend on compare results (HIT/MISS) of a CAM circuit, and that these estimates are quantitatively consistent with estimates obtained from SPICE simulation. The proposed power estimation function allows us to obtain more precise results than those based on a former study. |
