  • System and methods for dynamic power estimation for a digital circuit
    Patent number: 8359173
    Abstract: A method for dynamic timing-dependent power estimation for a digital circuit having coupled interconnects and at least two gates. In one embodiment, the method includes the steps of capturing information on relative switching activities and timing dependence for the coupled interconnects in the digital circuit, estimating the probabilities associated with switching activities and timing dependence for each gate in the digital circuit from the captured information, and obtaining dynamic power estimation of the digital circuit from the estimations of the probabilities.
