Anyone can tell how to calcualte power dissipation from cadence schematic analog simulator. I can see only one option in calculator ie spectral power.
 

Hi,
Plot the current and multiply it by VDD to get the transient power. After that you can measure the average or the RMS by integrating.

does this give total power consumed? How to measure average power? what is spectral power?
 

Which current do you mean? the DC current drawn from each Vdc?
