Abstract

A power profile for an electronics design is implemented by accessing a unit descriptive of an electronic design comprising a first intellectual property (IP) block expressed in a simulation language and comprising a netlist. A total number (NT) of net weights are identified in the netlist, wherein each respective net weight is proportional to an effective load capacitance of an associated net. A total number (NP) of populated nets having associated toggle simulation data are identified in the netlist. A ratio (KS) equal to a sum of all NT net weights divided by a sum of all NP populated net weights is generated. A sample energy (ES) is generated based on the associated toggle simulation data of and net weights for each of the NP populated nets. And a block power profile is modelled based on an estimated block energy (EN) equal to KS multiplied by ES.
