4  Power requirements 

 

The  power  is  supplied  to  the  AD484  via  the  PMC  and/or  XMC  connectors.  Several  DC-DC 
converters  generate  the  appropriate  voltage  rails  for  the  different  devices  and  interfaces 
present on board.   

 

The  AD484  power  consumption  depends mainly  on  the  FPGA  devices  work  load.  By  using 
high efficiency power converters, all care has been taken to ensure that power consumption 
will remain as low as possible for any given algorithm. 

After  power  up  the  AD484  typically  consumes  5W  of  power.  For  precise  power 
measurements it is recommended to use the Xilinx power estimation tools for both FPGA A 
and B. The maximum current rating given in the table below is the maximum current that can 
be drawn from each voltage rail in the case resources are used to their maximum level.
