Abstract
The power consumption of chips, including the subthreshold and gate-tunnel leakage currents, is continuing to increase dramatically. If this trend continues, power dissipation will be the primary limiter of performance and integration. A power-management platform called ChipOS overcomes the power crisis in LSIs. ChipOS, an operating system for a chip, provides an open power management platform for system-on-a-chip devices.
