Abstract
Vectorless dynamic power estimation for a circuit design may include forming, using a processor, a complex basic element within the circuit design, determining, using the processor, initial toggle rates for basic elements within the circuit design, and determining, using the processor, an initial toggle rate for the complex basic element. Vectorless dynamic power estimation further may include generating, using the processor, final toggle rates by updating the initial toggle rates according to a control signal analysis and calculating, using the processor, dynamic power dissipation for the circuit design using the final toggle rates.
