2.3. Estimating Power Consumption with the Intel® FPGA Power and Thermal Calculator

With the Intel® FPGA Power and Thermal Calculator ( Intel® FPGA PTC), you can estimate power consumption at any point in your design cycle.

The Intel® FPGA PTC lets you estimate the power consumption when you have not yet begun your design, or when your design is only partially complete. Although the Intel® FPGA PTC can provide a power estimate for your completed design, Intel recommends that you use the Power Analyzer in the Intel® Quartus® Prime software when the design is available, for a more accurate estimate based on the exact placement and routing information of the completed design.
