Abstract
Embodiments provide a method and apparatus for capacitor demand evaluation in a PDN that includes at least one power bus provided with multiple nodes. The multiple nodes are distributed at different positions of the power bus. Each of the multiple nodes is connected to multiple capacitors connected in parallel. Each of the multiple capacitors is provided with a respective one of control switches. The method includes: Multiple adjustment operations are performed. Upon accomplishment of each of the multiple adjustment operations, a respective IR drop of the power bus and a respective running speed of the load circuit are detected; for each of different nodes on the power bus, an ideal capacitance of the node is determined according to the IR drops of the power bus and running speeds of the load circuit detected through the multiple adjustment operations.
