Elmer Re <<as a test engineer who personally developed the dynamic icc test for an x86 processor, I can assure you that using ohms law is exactly how it is done. You don't put every production part through the steps you describe above. You test them on a tester using a wave integrator, average the current and "do the math".>>

They do not do this for all manufacturing parts, just a few of them during thermal design process.

As a thermal design/test engineer for electronic packages, I know that this is how the heat dissipation is determined.
