NVIDIA: Applying RTL Clock Gating to Reduce Power in Graphics Processors Chips

By integrating PowerPro CG into their low-power design flow, NVIDIA was able to deliver a much lower power solution than if they had solely relied on manual optimization techniques.​

“RTL power optimization is a critical step in our high-performance, low-power design methodology for PC graphics, visual computing and applications processors,” says Dan Smith, director, Hardware Engineering, NVIDIA Corporation. “PowerPro CG has shown substantial power savings on designs, including blocks already manually optimized for low power by RTL designers.”​
