VLSI Interview question | Low Power strategies | Digital Design | Semiconductors | Backend design
Power efficiency is critical in modern chip design, especially for mobile, IoT, and battery-powered devices. This video breaks down the key low-power design techniques used in VLSI to reduce both dynamic and leakage power without sacrificing performance.
We cover:
Clock Gating – Reduces dynamic power by disabling the clock to idle logic blocks, minimizing unnecessary switching activity.
Power Gating – Saves leakage power by completely shutting off power to unused blocks using power switches.
Multi-Voltage Design – Uses different supply voltages for different parts of the chip (voltage islands), allowing slower blocks to run at lower voltages to save dynamic power.
Multi Vt Libraries – Selects hvt cells on non-critical paths to reduce leakage, and low-Vt cells on critical paths to maintain performance.
These techniques are widely used in SoC design, ASICs, and low-power digital systems to achieve energy-efficient silicon.
