Abstract
A system is disclosed that includes a memory and a processor configured to perform operations stored in the memory. The processor performs the operations to select a master clock for a plurality of clocks in a design logic circuit. The processor further performs the operations to align a clock edge of a clock of the plurality of clocks with a corresponding nearest clock transition of the master clock. The aligned clock edge of the clock limits a number of emulation cycles for the design logic to a fixed number of emulation cycles required for the master clock The processor further performs the operation to determine a clock period for measuring power required for the design logic circuit and estimate, at the aligned clock edge, the power required for the design logic circuit corresponding to the determined clock period, which corresponds to a clock selected from the plurality of clocks and the master clock.
