Power Optimization in FDSOI Design: Conference Recap & Insights
November 21, 2025 −
Efficient power optimization is becoming increasingly critical as power budgets tighten and design complexity continues to grow. At the recent Design And Reuse IP-SoC 2025 Conference in Grenoble, our colleague Dennis Zetzsche presented a structured and practical approach to tackling this challenge.
In his session, Dennis explored how advanced power-management techniques can be effectively enabled in FDSOI-based SoCs without compromising performance or silicon area. His talk outlined a balanced methodology that combines several key optimization strategies, including:
- Power Gating
- Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS)
- Adaptive Body Biasing (ABB)
A highlight of the presentation was the demonstration of Adaptive Body Biasing using Racyics’ ABX IP, showcasing precise control of body-bias domains. To bring these concepts together, Dennis also shared a case study illustrating how these techniques can be integrated into a single SoC using the Racyics ULP IP platform.
In addition to the session, our team hosted a booth at the event, where visitors experienced a live demonstration of the ABX unit and engaged in in-depth technical discussions around our power management solutions.
If you’re interested in learning more about the ABX platform or the methodologies presented, feel free to reach out to our team.
