Table 3–5
describes the I/O bank parameters in the I/O section of the
PowerPlay Early Power Estimator.
Figure 3–11
shows how the V
CCIO
level is listed for each I/O bank. The
PowerPlay Early Power Estimator spreadsheet shows the I
CCIO
listed for
each bank. Select the V

V
CCI O
Select the V

voltage for each bank. Used to cross-check selected I/O standards
in table below for warning purposes.
I
CCI O
(A)
This shows the total supply current due to the I/O pins in each I/O bank. This may be
higher than the thermal power due to current supplied to off-chip termination resistors.
Unassigned
This represents the I
CCI O
of all I/O modules not assigned to an I/O bank.
