چکیده |
Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI) in CMOS devices is known as the major source of aging effect which is leading to performance and reliability degradation in modern processors. Instruction-cache (I-cache), which has a decisive role in performance and reliability of the processor, is one of the most prone modules to NBTI. Variations in duty cycle and long-time residency of data blocks in I-cache lines (stress condition) are the two major causes of NBTI acceleration. This paper proposes a novel I-cache management technique to minimize the aging effect in the I-cache SRAM cells. The proposed technique consists of a smart controller that monitors the cache lines behavior and distributes uniformly stress condition for each line. The simulation results show that the proposed technique reduces the NBTI effect in I-cache significantly as compared to normal operation. Moreover, the energy consumption and the performance overheads of the proposed technique are negligible. |
