4.4. Monitor On-board Power 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.

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

The instructions to run the 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.
