Abstract
This chapter addresses the approaches and methodologies appropriate to energy-constrained SoC design, implementation and verification using standard multi-voltage Electronic Design Automation tools, rather than resorting to full-custom circuit approaches. The Physical-IP libraries, memories and power-management components required to address both active-mode energy and deep-sleep state retention power are introduced, followed by a case study addressing the specific challenges of optimizing a micro-processor subsystem for Near- and Sub-Threshold Voltage operation. As well as system level power management the implementation and verification of clock distribution and system timing closure are covered in detail.
