Efficient estimation of dynamic power consumption under a real delay model

In CMOS circuits, glitches account for a sizable partof the total power consumption. In this paper, we presenta fast and memory efficient power estimation techniquefor cmos circuits which estimates the power consumed dueto the glitches. Our technique is based on the notion oftagged transition waveforms. In particular, we approximatethe correlation between transition waveforms for twosignal lines by the correlation between the steady state valuesof these lines. We obtain an order of...
