Mobile phones with 30x battery life + 7x faster?

Mobile phones with 30x battery life + 7x faster? Scientists develop revolutionary microchip that uses 30 times less energy. Professor Krishna, Palem of Rice University and Director of NTU’s Institute for Sustainable Nanoelectronics (ISNE), invented the new chip design using an engineering philosophy known as “probabilistic design.” Probabilistic design methodology, if used for consumer devices, would result in energy efficient devices.

The microchip is a successful proof-of-concept of the PCMOS technology which has demonstrated an improvement of 30 times in terms of energy consumption while running 7 times faster than the contemporary CMOS design.
