Abstract

We presen t a partial bus-in vertcoding scheme for po wer optim ization of system level bus. In the proposed sch eme, we select a su b-group of bus lines involved in b us encoding to a void unnecessary inversion of b us lines not in the sub-group thereby redu cing th e total number of bus transitions. We propose a heuristic algorithm that selects the sub-grou p of bus lines for b us encoding. Ex periments on benchmark examples in dicate that the partial bus-in vert coding reduces the tot al bus tran sitions b y 62.6% on the av erage, compared to that of the unencoded patterns.
