The filter bank multicarrier modulation (FBMC) technique is one of multicarrier modulation technique (MCM), which is mainly used to improve channel capacity of cognitive radio (CR) network and frequency spectrum access technique. The existing FBMC System contains serial to parallel converter, normal QAM modulation, Radix2 inverse FFT, parallel to serial converter and poly phase filter. It needs high area, delay and power consumption. To further reduce the area, delay and power of FBMC structure, a new clock gating technique is applied in the QAM modulation, radix2 multipath delay commutator (R2MDC) based inverse FFT and unified addition and subtraction (UAS) based FIR filter with parallel asynchronous self time adder (PASTA). The clock gating technique is mainly used to reduce the unwanted clock switching activity. The clock gating is nothing but clock signal of flip-flops is controlled by gate (i.e.) AND gate. Hence speed is high and power consumption is low. The comparison between existing QAM and proposed QAM with clock gating technique is carried out to analyze the results. Conversely, the proposed inverse R2MDC FFT with clock gating technique is compared with the existing radix2 inverse FFT. Also the comparison between existing poly phase filter and proposed UAS based FIR filter with PASTA adder is carried out to analyze the performance, area and power consumption individually. The proposed FBMC with clock gating technique offers low power and high speed than the existing FBMC structures.

This paper presents a Clock-gating technique that reduces power dissipation of the sequential circuits in the system. The Master Clock of a Clock-gating technique is formed by a quaternary variable. It uses the covering relationship between the triggering transition of the clock and the active cycles of various flip-flops to generate a slave clock for each flip-flop in the circuit. At current RTL designs flip-flop is acted by Master clock's triggering but the Slave Clock of Clock-gating technique doesn't occur trigger when external input conditions have not matched with a condition of logic table. We have applied our clocking technique to UART controller of 8bit microprocess

The proposed algorithm has processor designed low power processor using clock gating method. Clock gating method has improved the power dissipation by control main clock through the bus which is embedded clock block applying the method of clock gating. Proposed method has compared power consumption considered the dynamic power for processor, selected frequency has considered energy gain and energy consumption for designed processor. Or reduced power consumption with decreased processor speed using slack time. This technique has improved the life time of the mobile systems by clock gating method, considered energy and using slack time. As an results, the proposed algorithm reduce average power saving up to 4% comparing to not apply processor in mobile system.

In this paper we proposed a practical low-power design technique using clock-gating in RTL. An efficient low-power methodology is that a high-level designer analyzes a generic system and designs a controller for clock-gating. Also the desirable flow is to derive clock-gating in normal synthesis process by synthesis tool than to insert directly gate to clock line. If low-power is considered in coding process, clock is gated in coding process. If not considered, after analyzing entire operation. clock is Bated in periods of holding data. After analyzing operation for clock-gating, a controller was designed for it, and then a low-power circuit was generated by synthesis tool. From result, we identified that the consumed power of register decreased from 922mW to 543mW, that is the decrease rate is 42%. In case of synthesizing the test circuit using synthesizer of Power Theater, it decreased from 322mW to 208mW (36.5% decrease).

Power consumption during testing System-On-Chip (SOC) are becoming increasingly important as the IP core increases in SOC. We present a new algorithm to reduce the scan-in power using the modified scan latch reordering and clock gating. We apply scan latch reordering technique for minimizing the hamming distance in scan vectors. Also, during scan latch reordering, the don't care inputs in scan vectors are assigned for low power. Also, we apply the clock gated scan cells. Experimental results for ISCAS 89 benchmark circuits show that reduced low power scan testing can be achieved in all cases.

In this paper, we designed a low power face detection hardware and analysed its power consumption. The face detection hardware was fabricated using Samsung 0.18um CMOS technology and it can detect multiple face locations from a 2-D image. The hardware is composed of 6 functional modules and 11 internal memories. We introduced two operating modes(SLEEP and ACTIVE) to save power and a clock gating technique was used at two different levels: modules and registers. In additional, we divided an internal memory into several pieces to reduce the energy consumed when accessing memories, and fully utilized low power design option provided in Synopsis Design Compiler. As a result, we could obtain 68% power reduction in ACTIVE mode compared to the original design in which none of the above low power techniques were used.

In this paper, we design digital D-PHY link chip controling DSI (Display Serial Interface) that meets MIPI (Mobile Industry Processor Interface) standard. The D-PHY supports a high-speed (HS) mode for fast data traffic and a low-power (LP) mode for control transactions. For low power consumption, the unit blocks in digital D-PHY are optionally switched using the clock gating technique. The proposed low power digital D-PHY is simulated and compared with conven tional one about power consumption on each transaction mode. As a result, power consumptions of TX, RX, and total in HS mode decrease 74%, 31%, and 50%, respectively. In LP mode, power reduction rates of TX, RX, and total are 79%, 40%, and 51.5%, separately. We implemented the low power MIPI D-PHY digital chip using $0.13-{\mu}m$ CMOS process under 1.2V supply.

In this paper, we addressed the problem of reducing the switching activity in pipeline datapath and proposed a solution. clock-gating method is a kind of practical technique for reducing switching activity in finite state machine. But, in the case that the target gated function unit has a pipeline structure, there is some spurious switching activity on each stage register group. This occur in early stage of every function enable cycle. In this paper we proposed a method to solve this problem. This method generates the enable signal to each pipeline stage to gate the clock feeding register group. Experimental results showed effective reduction of dynamic powers in pipeline circuits.

In this paper, the block cipher algorithms, 3-DES(Triple Data Encryption Standard), AES(Advanced Encryption Standard), SEED, HASH(SHA-1), which are domestic and international standards, have been implemented as an integrated cryptographic engine for smart card applications. For small area and low power design which are essential requirements for portable devices, arithmetic resources are shared for iteration steps in each algorithm, and a two-level clock gating technique was used to reduce the dynamic power consumption. The integrated cryptographic engine was verified with ALTERA Excalbur EPXA10F1020C device, requiring 7,729 LEs(Logic Elements) and 512 Bytes ROM, and its maximum clock speed was 24.83 MHz. When designed by using Samsung 0.18 um STD130 standard cell library, the engine consisted of 44,452 gates and had up to 50 MHz operation clock speed. It was estimated to consume 2.96 mW, 3.03 mW, 2.63 mW, 7.06 mW power at 3-DES, AES, SEED, SHA-1 modes respectively when operating at 25 MHz clock. We found that it has better area-power optimized structure than other existing designs for smart cards and various embedded security systems.
