Factors affecting Power Consumption on a chip?
Answer Posted / 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
