Abstract: Estimating the power dissipation and the reliability of integrated circuits is a major concern of the semiconductor industry. Previously [1], we showed that a good measure of power dissipation and reliability is the extent of circuit switching activity, called the transition density. However, the algorithm for computing the density in [1] is very basic and does not take into account the effect of inertial delays of logic gates. Thus, as we will show in this paper, the transition density may be... (Update)

...by CMOS gates. Calculating the transition densities of a circuit while taking the filtering effect into account was first described in [5]. However it became not very clear in [5] when a glitch or a short pulse would be filtered out. We will therefore look into the filtering...

...signals with a period shorter than the propagation delay of the gate. This filtering effect is due to the inertial delay of CMOS gates. In [6] this effect is already mentioned and used to come to a more accurate estimation of the transition density when not working under a zero...
