Abstract
Method, apparatus and computer program product for hierarchical power analysis using improved activity abstraction and capacitance abstraction by accounting for design heterogeneity extremities comprising extracting design heterogeneity extremities from an RTL design; accounting for the design heterogeneity extremities during macro clock and data signals activity abstraction to generate improved macro activity abstractions; accounting for the design heterogeneity extremities during macro clock and data switching capacitance abstraction to generate improved macro capacitance abstractions; and using improved macro activity abstractions and improved macro capacitance abstractions during hierarchical chip power analysis.
