Fifth International Conference on Information Technology: New Generations (itng 2008)
On Power Dissipation in Information Processing
April 07-April 09
ISBN: 978-0-7695-3099-4
We consider power dissipation during simple switching in information processing. By considering general two-level system we show that the energy dissipation during errorless switching has a minimum of kTln2 and increases linearly with a switching speed. Also, we find optimal switching function, which minimizes heat dissipation for the given error rate. We present some estimates and compare them with results for the CMOS technology.
Index Terms:
power dissipation, nanoscale architectures, CMOS
