SystemC-based power estimation software for predicting the power consumption of digital systems. The tool provides an accurate power estimation model for components and modules, enabling designers to optimize system performance and energy efficiency. The software supports various power estimation techniques and integrates with popular electronic design automation tools.
PKtool is a powerful software tool that has been built specially for digital systems described in SystemC/C++ environment. It can be used for the estimation of power dissipation in all SystemC modules that make up the system being studied. With PKtool, energy consumption can be estimated for each monitored module during functional SystemC simulation, providing detailed and accurate analysis.
The software is based on three main components, which enable its capabilities for energetic analysis: simulation engine (also known as Power Kernel), power models and augmented signals. These three components work together seamlessly, making the process of energy consumption estimation simple and efficient.
One key advantage of PKtool is that it can be applied to each individual SystemC module, making it a highly effective tool for analyzing complex digital systems. Its simulation engine is designed to accurately predict energy consumption, while the power models and augmented signals enable users to gain a deeper understanding of the specifics of each module.
Overall, PKtool provides a comprehensive and reliable option for the estimation of power dissipation for digital systems in SystemC/C++ environment. With its powerful components and ease of use, it’s a must-have software tool for any user seeking to gain a better insight into energy consumption in digital systems.
