BlitzCoin: Fully Decentralized Hardware Power Management for Accelerator-Rich SoCs for ISCA 2024

We demonstrate through a combination of RTL simulations and actual chip measurements, an 8-12X improvement in response time coupled with up to 34% throughput improvement, compared with existing state-of-the-art centralized power management schemes. Finally we also demonstrate a novel hybrid voltage regulator design with the required response time and efficiency to achieve these benefits. In this work we present BlitzCoin, a fully decentralized hardware power-management strategy for blitzcoin large accelerator-rich SoCs, coupled with an optimized unified voltage/frequency actuator. We implement BlitzCoin in a 12nm technology node and deploy it in full SoCs targeted toward different application domains. Our evaluations show markedly faster (8× to 12×) response times, which provides 25%-34% throughput improvement and allows for scaling to 7× to 13× larger SoCs compared to state-of-the-art centralized power-management strategies, while keeping sub-1% area overhead. Blitz Labs is a WEB3 collective dedicated to developing tools, services, and products that make basic crypto activities such as, but not limited to, participating in presales, exchanging tokens, bridging, as simple as possible and without unnecessary complexity.

Modern day System-on-Chip (SoCs) are being designed for increasingly complex applications, particularly larger and more diverse AI models. This, in turn has, led to them becoming much larger, and more heterogeneous, with tens to hundreds of cores and accelerators which has necessitated a rethink of power and resource management techniques on these SoCs. Existing power-management strategies with centralized on-chip controllers are becoming more and more difficult to translate to current or next-generation SoCs due to tight constraints on response time and scalability. With this in mind, we present EPOCHS-1, a large heterogeneous SoC fabricated in 12nm technology, comprising of 34 PE tiles with 14 different accelerator types, equipped with a novel, decentralized hardware power management strategy, termed as BlitzCoin.
