Switching power (Read 2472 times)

akhil New Member Offline Posts: 9	Switching power Apr 14^th, 2010, 12:52am hi I have designed 64 bit prefix adder. I used Leornado spectrum for sythesising my design but it only reports area and delay reports, no report for power . How can i calculate switching power by calculating the switching activity in my design as in can i write a code to calculate that or is there any other way Please reply Thanx in advance

I cant remember the name exactly....but it is one of the most popular tools used for synthesis in digital VLSI flow across many companies. Sorry for very late and for very vague reply. Rajdeep
