Hello All,

I am in a process to write script sfor Power compiler and Prime power for ASIC power analysis and optimization. Does any body have sample scripts to run Power compiler and Prime power ? Crying or Very sad

Thanks

actually, power compiler extract clock gating on your design for power saving. while only prime power does the power analysis.

the general flow is as follows:
1. read_verilog
2. read_spef (if available)
3. read_vcd
4. calculate_power
5. report_power
you can get the detail usage in Prime Power. have fun...
