Abstract

A technique for facilitating circuitry design by providing minimum technology to minimize power consumption is disclosed. In one embodiment, the technique is realized by providing a system comprising estimation tools including power/density estimation tools, subsystem performance estimation tools, and performance analysis tools. Based on components and goals input by the user the system provides comparisons to facilitate minimum power consumption, maximum density, and maximum throughput. The user proceeds from a component level to a system level to arrive at an optimal system design.
