Power: a significant challenge in EDA design
Power has become
a primary design
consideration over the
past decade and is causing
some big changes in the way that
engineers design and verify systems.
Physics no longer provides a free ride.

Low power is everywhere
Meeting power budgets for most System-on-Chip (SoC) designs today is no longer a requirement for mobile applications only. Almost every market segment today has some concern with designing in low power features—although the driving factor for why does differ among them. The primary impetus for low power design was initially driven by the mobile market due to the need for extending battery life; however, different segments do have different reasons for making power a primary design requirement.
