ABSTRACT:
This is a method of quickly computing the power dissipated by a digital circuit using information available at the gate library level. It estimates the short-circuit power by modeling the energy dissipated by the cell per input transition as a function of the transition time or edge rate, and multiplying that value by the number of transitions per second for that input.
