Hi all,

I have a clocked circuit that accepts 8 bit input and produces a 8 bit output.

Say for example the clock is running at 2.5Mhz.

For a given 8 bit input vector I want to measure the power consumed by the circuit in one clock cycle at a rate of 1Ghz.

That is to say take 400 samples of the power consumed by the circuit for a given vector over one clock cycle.

Can I do this using nanosim. If you could someone please guide me doing this. Or else suggest me a tool that can do this.

I need this for my research.

Help is appreciated.

Thanks
