quartus_pow
The Quartus II PowerPlay Power Analyzer estimates the thermal dynamic power and the thermal static
power consumed by the design. For newer families such as Stratix II and MAX II, the current drawn
from each power supply is also estimated.
Quartus II Analysis & Synthesis and the Fitter must be run successfully before running the PowerPlay
Power Analyzer.
