Answer / srujana

Power consumption on a chip can be classified majorly in
to 2 types:
1. Static Power consumption
2. Dynamic Power consumption
Static Power consumption: Leakage power is the major
contributor in static power consumption. The subthreshold
leakage power due to reduced threshold value due to
reduced supply voltages as technology is shrinking is the
major contributor of leakage power.
Dynamic Power consumption:
1.This is due to the increase in frequency of the chip,
which results in high switching rates of the clock
2. Due to increase in the complexity of the chip and the
increase in the instance count of the chip.

Answer / khush

the faster the clock the more power used, the longer the
wires the more power used, the number of transitions i.e.
the faster the switching the more power used - power is
proportional to switching frequency.

Answer / pankaj

power is dirlectly proportional to the square of suplly
voltage so is the supply voltage reduces the power is also
reduced but the lekage cuurent is increased. so voltage
level can't be reduced so much.

Answer / subu

1) Number of state Transition.
2) Ideal clock input (instead we can give clock gating)

Answer / bhawna

In addition to Static and Dynamic Power the other major contributor is:
Activity factor - how often the gates are switching
Optimal sizing - same logical effort is approximately same delay however the least size will give least power
Total Capacitance charging/discharging per cycle - depends on optimal layout design to reduce the capacitance by proper choice of available metal layers

Answer / rajkumar

Leakage power
Dynamic power
Short circuit power

Answer / p.mgr

If the coding of chip is increased then the power
consumption also increased
