17.29 A collection of logic gates for which the static power dissipation is zero, and the dynamic power dissipation is 10 mW is operating at 1 GHz with a 1.2-V supply. By what fraction could the power dissipation be reduced if operation at 1.0 V were possible? If the frequency of operation is reduced by the same factor as the supply voltage (i.e., 1.0/1.2), what additional power can be saved?
