SparseDroop: Hardware–Software Co-Design for Mitigating Voltage Droop in DNN Accelerators

  • Arnab Raha,
  • Shamik Kundu,
  • Arghadip Das,
  • Soumendu Kumar Ghosh and
  • Deepak A. Mathaikutty

Modern deep neural network (DNN) accelerators must sustain high throughput while avoiding performance degradation from supply voltage (VDD) droop, which occurs when large arrays of multiply–accumulate (MAC) units switch concurrently and induce...
