Logic Synthesis For Low Power
Logic synthesis can also be optimized in many ways to keep power consumption under control. Details of the following steps can have a significant impact on power optimization:
- Clock gating
- Logic Factorization
- Don’t Care Optimization
- Path Balancing
- Technology Mapping
- State Encoding
- Finite-State Machine Decomposition
- Retiming

Famous quotes containing the words logic, synthesis and/or power:
“Neither Aristotelian nor Russellian rules give the exact logic of any expression of ordinary language; for ordinary language has no exact logic.”
—Sir Peter Frederick Strawson (b. 1919)
“It is not easy to construct by mere scientific synthesis a foolproof system which will lead our children in a desired direction and avoid an undesirable one. Obviously, good can come only from a continuing interplay between that which we, as students, are gradually learning and that which we believe in, as people.”
—Erik H. Erikson (20th century)
“‘Tis not such lines as almost crack the stage
When Bajazet begins to rage;
Nor a tall met’phor in the bombast way,
Nor the dry chips of short-lunged Seneca.
Nor upon all things to obtrude
And force some odd similitude.
What is it then, which like the power divine
We only can by negatives define?”
—Abraham Cowley (1618–1667)
