Question
can you help find power dissipation taking die size into account.
In the power dissipation formula, where s is the technology factor, can capacitance be thought of as die-size?Or how do die size and power dissipation correlate?

Transcribed Image Text:Assume that the technology scales every two years by a factor of SA. If a microprocessor in year 2000 is dissipating 100W,
consider a scaling scenario in the future, where all the dimensions scale by a factor of B every technology
generation. Technology generation spans 2 years. Assume also that the trends from the past will continue in the future as
well: the microprocessor die size continues to increase by C every other year, the supply voltage is reduced by a factor D
and frequency doubles every technology generation. Find the power dissipation of a future microprocessor in year 2008. Please
write down all of your assumptions and explain your reasoning.
A, B, C, D are known
