A certain gate draws 1.8
A when its output is HIGH and 3.3 µA when its output is LOW. VCC is 5 V and the gate is operated on a 50% duty cycle. What is the average power dissipation (PD)?

Pd=Vcc*Icc(avg)
Icc(avg)=ICCH+ICCL/2
Pd=5*(1.8+3.3)/2=12.75
Icc(avg)=ICCH+ICCL/2
Pd=5*(1.8+3.3)/2=12.75

What is the answer, If duty cycle 35%?

I don't think there's a gate that 35% efficient.

Duty cycle is 35% then Vcc is 3.5.

Average power dissipation = (time of high * voltage * high current) + ( time of low + voltage + low current ).
= (0.5 * 5 * 1.8) + ( 0.5 * 5 * 3.3) [ as 50% duty cycle, so, 50% time to high and rest to low, here 50%].
The average power dissipation = 12.75 μW.
= (0.5 * 5 * 1.8) + ( 0.5 * 5 * 3.3) [ as 50% duty cycle, so, 50% time to high and rest to low, here 50%].
The average power dissipation = 12.75 μW.
