Embedded systems demand high performance with minimal power consumption, and the optimisation of scratchpad memory (SPM) plays a critical role in meeting these stringent requirements. SPM, a small ...
Editor's Note: In this paper originally presented at Design East 2012, the author looks at issues and techniques for squeezing maximum energy from batteries in embedded systems in the following parts: ...
System-on-a-Chip (SoC) designers have a problem, a big problem in fact, Random Access Memory (RAM) is slow, too slow, it just can’t keep up. So they came up with a workaround and it is called cache ...
