A low-power asynchronous data-path for a FIR filter bank FIR滤波器组的低功耗异步数据路径
L. S. Nielsen, J. Sparsø

Sparsø","doi":"10.1109/ASYNC.1996.494451","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ASYNC.1996.494451","url":null,"abstract":"This paper describes a number of design issues relating to the implementation of low-power asynchronous signal processing circuits. Specifically, the paper addresses the design of a dedicated processor structure that implements an audio FIR filter bank which is part of an industrial application. The algorithm requires a fixed number of steps and the moderate speed requirement allows a sequential implementation. The latter, in combination with a huge predominance of numerically small data values in the input data stream, is the key to a low-power asynchronous implementation. Power is minimized in two ways: by reducing the switching activity in the circuit, and by applying adaptive scaling of the supply voltage, in order to exploit the fact that the average case latency as 2-3 times better than the worst case. The paper reports on a study of properties of real life data, and discusses the implications it has on the choice of architecture, handshake-protocol, data-encoding, and circuit design. This includes a tagging scheme that divides the data-path into slices, and an asynchronous ripple carry adder that avoids a completion tree.","PeriodicalId":365358,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Second International Symposium on Advanced Research in Asynchronous Circuits and Systems","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134135543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Røine","doi":"10.1109/ASYNC.1996.494432","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ASYNC.1996.494432","url":null,"abstract":"A system for high-speed asynchronous interconnections between VLSI chips is proposed. Communication is performed on three-wire links that have about the same properties as differential interconnections. A bit transmission consists of switching the constant driver current from one wire to one of the two others. There is no need for clocking or synchronisation, as bits are separated by a transition. The chosen data representation makes decoding to a two-phase protocol especially simple. Energy consumption may be reduced by dynamically adjusting bias currents, and thus circuit speed, to match the demand for communication bandwidth. In a 0.7 /spl mu/m CMOS process, communication bandwidth per link is expected to reach 1 Gb/s.","PeriodicalId":365358,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Second International Symposium on Advanced Research in Asynchronous Circuits and Systems","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126501414","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition to the processor it incorporates a number of distinct subsystems, the most notable of which is an asynchronous on-chip cache. This includes several novel features which exploit the asynchronous design style to increase throughput and reduce power consumption. These features are evident at a number of levels in the design. For example, the cache is micropipelined to increase its throughput, at the architectural level there is an arbitration free non-blocking line fetch mechanism while at the circuit design level there is a power-saving RAM sense amplifier control circuit. A significant property of the cache system is its ability to cycle in a data dependent way which allows the system to approach average case performance.","PeriodicalId":365358,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Second International Symposium on Advanced Research in Asynchronous Circuits and Systems","volume":"280 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115228999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is well known that under this delay model not all multiple input dynamic logic hazards can be removed from all two stage combinational logic circuits. In this paper we restrict the delay model to the well-known inertial gate delay or speed independent model and show that under this model half of the dynamic logic hazards can no longer occur in two level logic circuits. We then weaken the zero wire delay restriction and find an upper bound for the delay along critical interconnection wires and hence propose a virtual isochronic fork model for interconnection networks.","PeriodicalId":365358,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Second International Symposium on Advanced Research in Asynchronous Circuits and Systems","volume":"255 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131898240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach utilizes asynchronous design techniques to implement a dispatch stack-based dynamic instruction issue mechanism. To maintain throughput and simplify dependency computations, the AFDS architecture includes a counterflow pipeline, which is modeled after the Counterflow Pipeline Processor (CFPP) proposed by Sproull and Sutherland (1994). The AFDS counterflow pipeline, however, propagates instruction dependency and completion information, rather than results and source operands. Preliminary results indicate that the AFDS is a promising application of the CFPP architecture.","PeriodicalId":365358,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Second International Symposium on Advanced Research in Asynchronous Circuits and Systems","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115752725","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
