It’s No Wonder….
The issue is that people don’t realize all of the options in the design space. You can turn sleep current arbitrarily low.
Bill Dally, Chief Scientist, NVIDIA
You could have lower power RAM, but engineering it is expensive and the market would not pay for the investment.
Krisztian Flautner, Director of Advanced Research, ARM
I think you will find that a part designed to run at 50MHz and above with 64K of SRAM will always draw more power in sleep mode.
Paul Kimelman, chief architect of ARM Cortex M3

Data is Truth
• Separate artifact from essence– (addressing either is commendable)
• “Interesting” is a bad word
• Open, public data sets
