16 years agostatic power is that of routing/logic module/io.
dynamic power is that of clocked logic and depends on clk frequency and toggle rate.If you don't have clock you don't have dynamic. To get toggle rate: First set simulation output file to SAF then run a simulation then go to power analyser and set it to SAF. The important thing you get from simulation is the toggle rate. Alternatively do your own toggle rate maunally(not easy): toggle rate is meant to be 100/% for any signal that toggles up/down on every clock(clk itself is viewed as 200% by power analyser). example:for 16 bit counter the toggle rate is 12.5% average of all 16 outputs.
