F2: VLSI power-management techniques: Principles and applications

Across the spectrum of microelectronics applications, power management is critical to the enabling of power-efficient products. This Forum will provide practicing circuit designers with a summary of power-management techniques, including perspectives from a wide range of product applications, and an outlook for the future in the context of coming challenges. The first four speakers in this Forum will present the general principles in development today, including power-gating and state-retention modes, PLL/DLL techniques for dynamic frequency scaling, integrated voltage regulators for dynamic voltage scaling, and low-power signaling. In the second half, four speakers representing different industry perspectives, including microprocessors, consumer electronics, microcontrollers and mobile, and DRAM, will utilize practical case studies to detail current usage of power-management techniques and speculate on future trends.
