Delay-sensitive power estimation at the register-transfer level

Zero-delay estimates of RTL power tend to underestimate power consumption because they neglect spurious transitions due to unequal propagation delays. We propose a new RTL power estimation flow that accounts for these phenomena. Experiments show that zero-delay analysis may grossly underestimate power, and that the proposed techniques achieve superior accuracy and robustness.
