Power Monitor Features
The Power Monitor measures and reports current power information and
communicates with the MAX V device on the board through the JTAG bus. A power
monitor circuit attached to the MAX V device allows you to measure the power that
the Cyclone V GT FPGA is consuming.
Figure 6–10 shows the Power Monitor.
