UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES

The Schools of Nursing and Pharmacy operate on both the Oxford and Jackson campuses. The Schools of Dentistry, Health Related Professionals and Medicine, and the Health Sciences Graduate School, are based in Jackson only. (Additional healthcare programs are available through the School of Applied Sciences on the Oxford campus.) Other than these exceptions, the schools above are on the Oxford campus.

El E 481: Fund. Low Power Dig. VLSI Design

ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

Techniques to constrain designs, run static timing analysis, evaluate datapath logic, run physical synthesis, optimize for low-power structures, analyze DFT (design for test-ability) constraints, and interface with other tools. Exploration and implementation of several low-power techniques to reduce both dynamic and leakage power during synthesis, including multiple supply voltage (MSV) design, power shutoff (PSO) synthesis and dynamic voltage frequency scaling (DVFS) synthesis, low-power flow using CPF and IEEE 1801 and troubleshoot a low-power design, and formal verification of power constraints and ensure the functionality of a low-power design.
