2. Power Optimization
The Intel® Quartus® Prime software offers power-driven compilation to fully optimize device power consumption. Power-driven compilation focuses on reducing the design’s total power consumption in synthesis and place-and-route stages.
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.
