Can anyone help me out that how do i calculate the energy consumption in inverter?
please guys help me out...
thanks
 

Hi
Measure the average current and multiply by vdd
 

but that is the Power not energy.
energy=0.5*C*Vdd*Vdd.
then how do i get the value of Capacitance (Parasitic) in simulation?
and what about the graph plot???
 

What I was refering to is the total power and what you wanna meausure is the dynamic power over frequency.
.
 

Thanks for your comment....yes you are right what you explained is static but what about the dynamic?
Can you please tell me how to measure the value of the paracitic capacitance of an inveter?
