This calculation provides an ICC estimate based on typical conditions with
no output load, using a typical pattern of a 16-bit, loadable, enabled
up/ down counter in each LAB. Actual ICC values should be verified
during operation, because the measurement is sensitive to the actual
pattern in the device and the environmental operating conditions.
Figure 15 shows typical supply current versus frequency for MAX 9000
devices.
