Column Heading Description
XCVR
This shows the thermal power consumed by transceiver hardware. This
includes the standby power consumed by transceivers.
To view details, click the XCVR button. If the value is N/A, the transceiver
blocks are not available on the chosen device.
PCS and HIP
This shows the thermal power consumed by the transceiver channel physical
coding sublayer (PCS) as well as the PCI Express ® (PCIe ® ) hard IP blocks of
the transceiver hardware. This includes the standby power consumed by
transceivers.
To view details, click the PCS and HIP button. If the value is N/A, the
transceiver blocks are not available on the chosen device.
P
STATIC This shows the thermal power dissipated on chip, independent of user
clocks. This includes the leakage power from all FPGA functional blocks,
except for I/O DC bias power and transceiver DC bias power.
P
STATIC
is affected by junction temperature, selected device, and power
characteristics.
The static power for HPS is shown in P
STATIC,HPS
.
Total FPGA This shows the total power dissipated as heat from the FPGA. This does not
include power dissipated in off-chip termination resistors and HPS.
HPS This value shows the thermal power consumed by the HPS. To view the
details, click the HPS button.
P
STATIC,HPS This shows the thermal power dissipated from the HPS, independent of user
clocks. This includes the leakage power from all HPS functional blocks,
except for HPS I/O DC bias power.
P
STATIC,HPS
is affected by junction temperature, selected device, and power
characteristics. The static power for HPS will be turned on once the SoC
device is selected.
Total SoC This value shows the total power dissipated as heat from the FPGA and HPS.
This value does not include power dissipated in off-chip termination
resistors.
Power Tree Design
The Power Tree Design section provides the current and voltage from the report page. The power supply
grouping is according to the device pin connection guidelines.
