Abstract
The current that will be drawn by a digital circuit is predicted on the basis of its schematic circuit diagram. An equivalent circuit is generated, wherein circuit sections of the digital circuit, the output signal levels of which change or can change at the same time, are replaced by an inverter. This renders it possible to determine the current drawn by a digital circuit in a simple, fast and accurate manner even at its design stage.
