4.4. Monitor On-board Power Regulator through Power Monitor GUI

The Power Monitor GUI 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.

Power Monitor GUI communicates with System Intel® MAX® 10 through either USB port J8 or 10-pin JTAG header J10. System Intel® MAX® 10 monitors and controls power regulator, temperature/voltage/current sensing chips through a 2-wire I2C bus.

The instructions to run Power Monitor GUI are stated in the Run BTS GUI. It can also be started with the BTS GUI icon “Power”.

Note: You cannot run the stand-alone Power Monitor GUI when the BTS or the Clock Controller GUI is running at the same time.
Figure 27. Power Monitor GUI

The following sections describe the details of the Power Monitor GUI.

Display Configure

  • Speed Adjustment: Adjusts the update rate of the current curve.
  • Reset: Regenerates the graph.

Data Record

When the box is checked, the telemetry data of the selected power rail can be recorded. The data will be saved into a .csv file in the log directory.

Temperature
