2. Power Optimization
This chapter describes the power-driven compilation feature and flow in detail, as well as low power design techniques that can further reduce power consumption in your design. The techniques primarily target Arria® , Stratix® , and Cyclone® series of devices. These devices utilize a low-k dielectric material that dramatically reduces dynamic power and improves performance. Arria® series, Stratix® IV, and Stratix® V device families include efficient logic structures called adaptive logic modules (ALMs) that obtain maximum performance while minimizing power consumption. Cyclone® device families offer the optimal blend of high performance and low power in a low-cost FPGA.
This chapter focuses on design optimization options and techniques that help reduce core dynamic power and I/O power. In addition to these techniques, there are additional power optimization techniques available for specific devices, including Programmable Power Technology and Device Speed Grade Selection.
