This paper purposes a bus architecture called Skewed Repeater Bus (SRB) for reducing on-chip interconnect energy in microprocessors. By introducing relative delay between neighboring bus lines, SRB reduces both average and worst-case coupling capacitance between those lines. SRB is compared to previously published techniques like Delayed Data Bus (DDB) and Delayed Clock Bus (DCB). Simulation results in 65-nm process show that bus energy reduction of 18% is achieved when SRB is applied to a real microprocessor example, versus 11% and 7% only for DDB and DCB; respectively.
