4.11. Arria® 10 EPE - HPS Worksheet

The HPS worksheet of the Early Power Estimator (EPE) for Arria® 10 applies to Arria® 10 devices with HPS.

To enable parameter entry into the HPS worksheet, first turn ON the HPS System Switch in the HPS worksheet. For Arria® 10 devices, select your peripheral modules in the I/O-IP worksheet. The power of the respective peripheral, except the corresponding I/O power, is shown in this HPS worksheet. To evaluate HPS I/O power, HPS peripherals should be instantiated using the I/O-IP worksheet.
