Can someone tell me, reported power in AD9822 is rms or average? What is industry practice for reporting power for an IC (i.e. rms or average)? Companies like Analog Devices, TI etc, reporting power in rms or average in datasheet?
 

You are apparently referring to DC power consumption, thus the answer is: Both, rms and average power for DC voltage is just the same.
 

better to ask ad ,ti. as far as my understanding it should be rms power, as our homes appliances quotes rms power dessipation.

Did you understand which power dissipation the original question is talking about? Perhaps you can enlighten me.
 

My question is whether clock and input signal is applied while measuring power dissipation of a chip at front-end level? If clock is on the rms and avg. power will not be same?
 

In your opinion, what is the difference between average and rms power? Average current and rms current are of course different quantities.
