1. INTRODUCTION

With the proliferation of portable electronic devices, power efficient data transmission has become increasingly important. For serial data transfer, universal asynchronous receiver / transmitter (UART) circuits are often implemented because of their inherent design simplicity and application specific versatility. Components such as laptop keyboards, palm pilot organizers and modems are few examples of devices that employ UART circuits.

Wireless distributed microsensor systems will enable fault tolerant monitoring and control of a variety of applications. Due to the large number of microsensor nodes that may be deployed and the long required system lifetimes, replacing the battery is not an option.

Sensor systems must utilize the minimal
possible energy while operating over a wide range of operating scenarios. This paper presents an overview of the key technologies required for low-energy distributed microsensors.

These include
power aware computation/communication ....etc

ABSTRACT
The aim of this paper is to describe the implementation of a lowpower,low-cost 16-bit RISC microcontroller that will act as thecore of a stand-alone security system. The controller is designedto provide moderate-high security at very low cost and to be ableto operate independent of a database. It is designed using 1.5-mSCMOS process from MOSIS and operates at a frequency of 12.5MHz.

LOW-POWER LOW -AREA MULTIPLIER BASED ON SHIFT AND ADD ARCHITECHTURE
Multipliers
Multipliers are among the fundamental components of many digital systems
The largest contribution to the total power consumption in the multiplier is due to the generation of partial product
Among all the multipliers shift and add multipliers are the most commonly used ,due to its simplicity & relatively small area requirement

Low voltage differential signaling, or LVDS, is an electrical signaling system that can run at very high speeds over cheap, twisted-pair copper cables. It was introduced in 1994, and has since become very popular in computers, where it forms part of very high-speed networks and computer buses.
LVDS uses the difference in voltage between two wires to signal information. The transmitter injects a small current, nominally 3.5 milliamperes, into one wire or the other, depending on the logic level to be sent. The current passes through a resistor o ....etc

The rapid development of multimedia applications and the Internet has led to the demand of mobility for these services. New wireless standards support high data rates and additional services, but they require complex realizations in both front-end and base band of a mobile system. The obtainable performance of such a system is often limited by the power consumption of the implementation, as long stand-by and talk times are still key parameters of a mobile terminal. Also the thermal problem, given by insufficient heat removal with highly integra ....etc

This paper presents a zero tree coding method for color images that uses no lists during encoding and decoding,permitting the omission of the lists requirement in Said and Pearlman's Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) algorithm . Without the lists, the memory requirement in a VLSI implementation is reduced significantly. This coding algorithm is also developed to reduce the circuit complexity of an implementation. Our experimental results show only a minor reduction of PSNR values when compared with the PSNR values obtained by th ....etc

Low-Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) is a new technology addressing the needs of today's high performance data transmission applications. The LVDS standard is becoming the most popular differential data transmission standard in the industry. This is driven by two simple features: Gigabits @ milliwatts! LVDS delivers high data rates while consuming significantly less power than competing technologies. In addition, it brings many other benefits, which include:

a)Low-voltage power supply compatibility
b)Low noise generation
c)High no ....etc
