Are there any known issues with the estimation of I/O static power in the Cyclone IV Early Power Estimater (EPE) version 10.0?

Environment

  • Quartus® II Subscription Edition
  • I O
  • BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
    Description

    Yes, Cyclone® IV Early Power Estimater (EPE) version 10.0 incorrectly models the I/O static power for Cyclone IV GX devices and this results in higher static power values.  The I/O static power values for Cyclone III and Cyclone IV E devices are not affected by this problem.

     

     

    Resolution This problem is fixed in version 10.0SP1 onwards of the EPE.
