Design entry in PDM is classified into the following two categories:
- Design Creation
- Design creation represents a completely manual entry for power estimation. It starts with device selection, environment settings including thermal conditions and the power budget and using the other pages to specify IP and programmable logic (PL) resources.
- Design Analysis
- Design analysis involves importing designs from the AMD Vivado™
tool to create a PDM project for further
exploration. Figure 1. PDM Design Flow
