| Sumario: | The article discusses microprocessing chips, indicating that a researcher, professor Krishna Palem, has created a technique to manufacturing chips that allows for increased power efficiency while losing some precision. The approach is called a probabilistic complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (PCMOS) technique. Other topics include applications including audio and video processing which do not require high levels of precision and energy saved through the selective lowering of the operating voltage of chips. |
