Clock-Frequency Switching Technique for Energy Saving of Microcontroller Unit (MCU)-Based Sensor Node

In this paper; a technique is proposed for reducing the energy consumption of microcontroller-based sensor nodes by switching the operating clock between low and high frequencies. The proposed concept is motivated by the fact that if the application codes of the microcontroller unit (MCU) consist of...
