In recent years, power dissipation in CMOS circuits has grown exponentially due to the fast technology scaling and the increase in complexity. Supply Voltage scaling is an effective technique to reduce dynamic power dissipation due to the non-linear relationship between dynamic power and Vdd. In other words, Vdd can be scaled freely except with limitation for below threshold voltage operation. The dynamic voltage scaling architecture mainly consists of dc-dc power regulator which is customised to produce variability on the Vdd. The implemented architecture can dynamically vary the Vdd from 300 mV to 1.2V, with initial setup time of 1.5 μsec. This paper investigates the effect of DVS on dynamic power dissipation in a Fast Fourier Transform multiplier core. Implementation of DVS on the multiplier blocks has shown 25% of average power reduction. The design was implemented using 0.12μm ST-Microelectronic 6-metal layer CMOS dual- process technology.
