Are there any known issues when using the auto-compute Tj feature of the Early Power Estimator (EPE) version 6.0.1 for my Stratix II GX designs?

Environment

BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
Description

Yes.  The auto-compute Tj in EPE version 6.0.1 does not take into account transceiver power which would be needed to accurately estimate power for Stratix® II GX devices. 

As a workaround, you should continue to use EPE version 6.0.1 but enter a custom Tj value when you are targeting Stratix II GX.

This will be fixed in a future version of the EPE.
