Power:

Power consumption in VLSI ckt is a growing concern. There are several sources of power in circuits.

1. leakage power

2. short circuit power

3. Dynamic power

Various startegies to mitigate power loss

 1. clock gating

2. power gating

Tools to estimate power and

These tools not only estimate power, but also try to rreduce power by implementing various power optimization techniques.

Power intent and standard:

We have also defined standard or language to capture power intent of a design. Discussed later.
