A.2.2. Current requirements
Table A.11 shows
the current requirements at room temperature and nominal voltage.
These measurements include the current drawn by Multi-ICE, which is
approximately 160mA at 3.3V.
The power blades on the header connectors are rated for 9A.
This typically can supply up to six Logic Tiles. The clock frequencies,
however, might have to be reduced if you are using this many tiles.
Caution
The actual current depends on the complexity of the design
in the Logic Tile and the clock speed used for the system.
Do not add or remove tiles while power is connected to the
Interface Module.
Table A.11. Current requirements
| System | At 3.3V | At 5V |
|---|
| Example 1, standalone operation (Interface
Module and one tile) | 180mA | 20mA |
| Example 2, motherboard, Interface Module, and
one tile | 1.2A | 600mA |
