A processor has a 3 V power input and consumes 015A of curre

A processor has a 3 V power input and consumes 0.15A of current. The overall internal capacitance of the processor is 10nF and the frequency is 0.5 GHz. Calculate the following energy consumptions of the processor: 1) static, 2) dynamic, and 3) total.

Solution

dynamic power consumption of processor = C V² f

= 10n * 3² * 0.5G

=45 W

static power consumption of processor = V * I

= 3* 0.15

= 0.45 W

total power = static power + dynamic power

= 45+0.45

= 45.45 W
