  • CPU power consumption and bit-similarity of input

    Changing the state of a digital circuit (i.e., changing its value from zero to one, or from one to zero) requires more electrical power than leaving its state unchanged. During program execution, the power consumed by each instruction depends on the value of its operand(s). The plot below, from an earlier post, shows how the…
