Converge And Consolidate

Power is driving some unusual combinations of engineering and scientific disciplines, and this is only the beginning.

Margin Call

It isn’t just performance that’s being weighed against power. It’s also reliability and flexibility.

Getting Paid For Efficiency

The demand for low-power electronics is growing globally, but who’s actually making money?

Beyond Power, Performance And Area

The standard way of looking at devices won’t be enough as we demand more of our portable electronic devices.

The Power Of Analog

Understanding analog and its impact on efficiency is about to be put to a new test.

Commoditizing Green

What Moore’s Law did for performance will now be turned toward energy and power efficiency.

More Knobs To Turn

New approaches to design and better use of new and existing tools will go a long way toward improving energy efficiency. But who’s going to pick up the tab?

Performance Plus Lower Power

The next competitive edge will come from a variety of approaches; research is well under way.

Painting The World Brown

The trend toward more energy-efficient devices may not be any greener than the old approach.

Patience And Power

Our unwillingness to wait for anything is having an enormous impact on SoC design.
