The PDM supports two major design flows:

Manual estimation flow
Use this flow when evaluating the Kria™ K26 SOM for total power based on the planned K26 design to be implemented.

In the manual estimation flow, PDM is used very similar to how the legacy device focused Xilinx® Power Estimator (XPE) tool is used is used. When starting a new PDM project, a new project wizard guides you through the project setup.

Import flow
For this flow, you can import the file generated from Vivado® power into the PDM while creating a new project.
