Power Monitor Controls; The Clock Control - Intel Cyclone V GT FPGA Development Kit User Manual

6.4.2. Power Monitor Controls

The following sections describe the Power Monitor controls.
6.4.2.1. General Information
General Information displays the following information about the MAX V device:
• MAX V version—Indicates the version of MAX V code currently running on the
board. The MAX V code resides in the
\cycloneVGT_5cgtfd9ef35_fpga\examples\max5
Newer revisions of this code might be available on the Cyclone V GT FPGA
Development Kit page of the Intel website.
• Power rail—Indicates the currently-selected power rail. After selecting the
desired rail, click Reset to refresh the screen with updated board readings.
A table with the power rail information is available in the Cyclone V GT FPGA
Development Board Reference Manual.

6.4.2.2. Power Information
Power information displays current, maximum, and minimum numerical power
readings in mA.
6.4.2.3. Power Graph
Power Graph displays the mA power consumption of your board over time. The green
line indicates the current value. The red line indicates the maximum value read since
the last reset. The yellow line indicates the minimum value read since the last reset.
6.4.2.4. Graph Settings
The following controls allow you to define the look and feel of the power graph:
• Scale select—Specifies the amount to scale the power graph. Select a smaller
number to zoom in to see finer detail. Select a larger number to zoom out to see
the entire range of recorded values.
• Update speed—Specifies how often to refresh the graph.
6.4.2.5. Reset
Reset clears the graph, resets the minimum and maximum values, and restarts the
Power Monitor.

6.5. The Clock Control

You can start the application with the following:
•
The ClockControl.exe application that resides in the
\cycloneVGT_5cgtfd9ef35_fpga\examples\board_test_system
