6.4.8. Power Monitoring

The Power Monitor measures and reports current power information and communicates with the MAX V device on the board through the JTAG bus. A power monitor circuit attached to the MAX V device allows you to measure the power that the FPGA is consuming.

To start the application, click the Power Monitor icon in the Board Test System application. You can also run the Power Monitor as a stand-alone application. The PowerMonitor.exe reside in the <package dir>\examples\board_test_system directory

Note: You cannot run the stand-alone power application and the BTS application at the same time. Also, you cannot run power and clock interface at the same time.
