4.4. Control On-Board Power Regulator through Power Monitor GUI

The Power Monitor application reports most power rails voltage, current, and power information on the board. It also collects temperature from FPGA die, power modules, and diodes assembled on PCB.

The Power Monitor GUI communicates with the system MAX® 10 through either USB port J13 or 10-pin JTAG header J14. The system MAX® 10 monitors and controls power regulator, and the temperature, voltage, and current sensing chips through a 2-wire serial bus.

The instructions to run the Power Monitor GUI are stated in the Running the BTS GUI section. Alternatively, you can start using the Clock Controller feature by selecting the Power icon on the BTS GUI.

Note: You cannot run the stand-alone Power Monitor application when the BTS or the Clock Controller GUI is running at the same time.

Temperature

  • Board: PCB surface temperature near U32.
  • E-Tile/P-Tile/Core A/Core C: FPGA dies' internal TSD.
  • 0.9V/3.3V/1.8V: Regulator U55/U46/U71.
