Abstract

This work reviews the contributions of power-oriented pipelining over the last two decades, and adds up-to-date results on 65 nm and 45 nm FPGAs. The data show that power consumption can be reduced by a factor between 0.1 and 0.8 using different levels of pipelining. More than 34 experiments, developed in 12 laboratories in 8 countries during 17 years are summarized. This paper also contributes to this research topic adding updated results for Altera 65 nm Cyclone III and Xilinx 45 nm Spartan-6 devices.
