초록
In this paper, we propose a synthesis algorithm for the design of low powe rcombinational circuits under area constraints. The proposed algorithm partitions a given circuit into several subcircuits such that only a selected subcircuit is activated at a time, hence reduce unnecessary signal transitions. Partitioning of a given circuit is performed through adaptive simulated annealing algorithm employing the cost function reflecting poer consumption under area constraints. Experimental reuslts for the MCNC benchmark circuits show that the proposed algorithm generates the circuits which consume less power by 61.1% and 51.1%, when compared to those generated by the sis 1.2 and the precomputation algorithm, respectively.
