Question 1.
What is the formula for calculating dynamic power?
Show hintHide hint
Remember the variables involved.
Question 2.
What happens to power consumption as frequency increases?
Show hintHide hint
Think about how often the circuit switches.
3Question 3.
What is the relationship between V_dd and dynamic power?
- Lower V_dd increases dynamic power
- Higher V_dd increases dynamic power
- V_dd does not affect dynamic power
Show hintHide hint
