Report Power supports the power estimation of Soft-Decision FEC core available in Zynq® UltraScale+™ RFSoCs. When the design containing the SD-FEC IP is implemented, Report Power displays the power estimation as shown in the following figure.
Figure 1. Report Power with SD-FEC Power Estimation

Following properties can be modified before running the Report Power for the SD-FEC object after implementation:

  • LD_PERCENT_LOAD: Percentage utilization for LDPC Decoder core
  • LE_PERCENT_LOAD: Percentage utilization for LDPC Encoder core
  • TD_PERCENT_LOAD: Percentage utilization for Turbo Decoder core

These three properties can also be provided during SD-FEC IP customization and using set_property commands on an implemented design. Also, the generated .xpe file by Report Power command can be imported to XPE spreadsheet for further what-if analysis.
