2.1.1. Design Activity and Power Analysis

Power consumption of a device also depends on the design's activity over time. Static power (PSTATIC) is the thermal power that a chip dissipates independent of user clocks. PSTATIC includes leakage power from all FPGA functional blocks, except for I/O DC bias power and transceiver DC bias power, which are accounted for in the I/O and transceiver sections. Dynamic power is the additional power consumption of a device due to signal activity or switching.
