Approximate arithmetic coding for bus transition reduction in low power designs.

Approximate arithmetic coding for bus transition reduction in low power designs.

We present a method for reducing the power consumption of compressed-code systems by selectively inverting bits that are transmitted on the bus. By incorporating bus inversion into code compression/decompression, we reduce power consumption with no cost in hardware or power relative to code compress...
