Supply Current and Power Consumption
Standby current is the current drawn from the respective power rails used for power
budgeting.
Altera offers two ways to estimate power for your design—the Excel-based Early
Power Estimator (EPE) and the Quartus
®
II PowerPlay Power Analyzer feature.
Use the Excel-based Early Power Estimator (EPE) before you start your design to
estimate the supply current for your design. The EPE provides a magnitude estimate
of the device power because these currents vary greatly with the resources you use.
The Quartus II PowerPlay Power Analyzer provides better quality estimates based on
the specifics of the design after you complete place-and-route. The PowerPlay Power
Analyzer can apply a combination of user-entered, simulation-derived, and estimated
signal activities that, when combined with detailed circuit models, yields very
accurate power estimates.
