Bus-switch coding for reducing power dissipation in off-chip buses.

We present a novel coding scheme for reducing bus power dissipation. The presented approach is well suited to driving off-chip buses, where the line capacitance is a dominant factor. A distinctive feature of the technique is the dynamic reordering of bus line positions, in order to minimize the togg...
