Verification of chip power consumption performance: from dilemma to transcendence

Now , People's requirements for power consumption of electronic products are constantly improving , therefore , Semiconductor companies are competing to design low-power 、 Energy efficient products . In order to launch more competitive products in the urgent market cycle , Engineers need to measure quickly 、 Accurately analyze and correctly process power consumption data . Traditional desktop oscilloscope and digital multimeter (DMM) The price is too expensive , And it's hard to base it on pin Foot or product line expansion , And low-cost data acquisition solutions often lack accuracy , Many tiny electrical signals like those in chip sleep mode cannot be detected . Facing this dilemma , Some companies choose to analyze only some functions of chips , This will lead to high power consumption of the chip 、 Low quality and other problems , Finally, a large number of market opportunities are lost .

To break through the above difficulties , The chip power consumption verification solution must meet the following requirements ：

* Provide a cost-effective and consistent way to measure chip power consumption

* So that engineers can easily collect test data 、 Visualization and Analysis

* Provide accurate and relevant feedback to design engineers and potential customers
