Abstract: By shutting off keeper transistors during pre-charge, the aging on these devices may be reduced. This means that a relatively weaker keeper may be used for noise compared to an overdesigned stronger keeper. Using a relatively weaker keeper circuit results in a faster evaluation stage and improved minimum read voltage in some embodiments.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus relating to techniques for shutting down one or more GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) components in response to unchanged scene detection are described. In one embodiment, one or more components of a processor enter a low power consumption state in response to a determination that a scene to be displayed is static. The static scene is displayed on a display device (e.g., based on information to be retrieved from memory) for as long as no change to the static scene is detected. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
