In electronics, one of the complex designs is SOC (system on chip) design, where many of the predefined or IP (intellectual property) circuits which can be analog, digital, or mixed-signal will be combined with each other and said that many circuits are combined to a single chip. In this paper, it is been designed the low power double data rate version of 4 memory (LPDDR4). It is one of the SDRAM architecture and since it is a memory there should be required a protocol to read data from memory and to write data from the memory for that purpose an AXI3 protocol is been used and the memory controller is been used to check the given input from the AXI protocol is correct or not. The entire SOC design is implemented using Verilog code and checked in the Xilinx 14.7 ISE and simulation is verified then the RTL is viewed in ModelSim 10.5 tool and verified the code coverage of design and testbench.

Although the technology scaling has enabled designers to integrate a large number of hardware blocks onto a single chip realizing System on Chip (SoC), problems arising from leakage current have made power reduction an important issue. The IoT platform has restricted power consumption because of battery power. In this paper, we propose our little core based IoT platform focusing on the low power and expandability. The experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of our proposal to the IoT.

Energy efficiency is one of the most important issues that needs to be solved in the current system on chip design. To overcome this issue, many circuits inside the chip run at low power. However there are some blocks like memories that run at relatively higher voltages. This means, modern day SOC contains different voltages running through it. The problem arises when two blocks operating at different voltages want to communicate with each other. This problem is solved by using Level Shifters as an interfacer between the blocks. The function of Level Shifter is to convert voltage level of input signal to that of the output. In this paper a cross coupled architecture of Level Shifter is proposed which operates between 1.5v and 5v. The speciality of this architecture is there is less contention between pull up network and pull down network, which reduces the rise and fall delay significantly. The proposed design is simulated at different operating conditions and the functionality is checked.
