A. Measuring Static Power

2.3. Definitions of Power Terms Used in this Document

The total power consumption of an Intel® Agilex™ 7 or Intel® Stratix® 10 device consists of the following components:
  • Static power—the power that the configured device consumes when powered up but no user clocks are operating. Static power is dependent on device size, device grade, power characteristics, and junction temperature. Static power excludes DC bias power of analog blocks, such as I/O and transceiver analog circuitry.
  • Dynamic power—the additional power consumption of the device due to signal activity or toggling.
  • Standby power—for Intel® Stratix® 10 devices only: additional power, independent of signal activity or toggling, that is consumed only when specific circuitry is enabled through configuration RAM settings. Standby power includes, but is not limited to, I/O and transceiver DC bias power. For Intel® Agilex™ 7 devices, this power is included as part of the reported dynamic power.
