Power consumption estimation method for system on chip (SOC), system for implementing the method
A method of estimating power consumption for a system on chip (SOC) includes simulating operation of a first sub-block to obtain power consumption information for the first sub-block including first activation information for a first IP block. The method further includes simulating operation of a second sub-block to obtain power consumption information for the second sub-block including second activation information for the first IP block and activation information for a plurality of second IP blocks. The method further includes determining a weighting factor for the first activation information for the first IP block, the second activation information for the first IP block and the activation information for each second IP block. The method further includes estimating power consumption for the SOC based on the first and second activation information for the first IP block, the activation information for at least one second IP block, and corresponding weighting factors.
