异步逻辑和功率门控是低占空比应用的有前途的技术，这些应用需要最大的能量效率，随着无线和嵌入式系统的普及变得越来越普遍。本文研究了纳/微机电（N/MEM）开关作为功率门控异步计算手段的潜在用途。在多物理场COMSOL工具中使用有限元分析（FEA）进行N/MEMS参数的系统优化。在90 nm工艺节点上设计并实现了一个具有4相串行数据握手协议的异步FIR滤波器。在异步FIR电路的计算和定时控制均经过适当功率门控的系统中，对N/MEMS开关与传统睡眠晶体管进行了比较研究。结果表明，当32抽头FIR滤波器以1 KHz的数据速率进行功率门控时，我们的N/MEMS解决方案提供了69%的能量改善，而在相同的设计中使用睡眠晶体管实现了39%的节能。
Asynchronous logic and power gating are promising techniques for low duty cycle applications which need maximal energy efficiency, which are becoming more common-place with the popularity of wireless and embedded systems. This paper investigates the potential use of Nano/Micro- Electro- Mechanical (N/MEM) switches as the means of power gating asynchronous computation. A systematic optimization of the N/MEMS parameters is performed using finite element analysis (FEA) in the multiphysics COMSOL tool. An asynchronous FIR filter with a 4-phase bundled-data handshake protocol is designed and implemented in the 90nm technology node. The N/MEMS switches are comparatively studied with conventional sleep transistors in a system where both the computation and the timing controls for the asynchronous FIR circuits are power gated appropriately. It is demonstrated that our N/MEMS solution offers a 69% energy improvement when 32-tap FIR filter is power gated at a data rate of 1KHz compared to a 39% savings realized by using sleep transistors in the same design.
