Silicon Laboratories Inc., a leader in high-performance, analog-intensive, mixed-signal ICs, introduced a web-based Isolator Power Consumption Calculator that streamlines the process of assessing ...

With stricter system power limits, specs and standards that cap the total power consumed, system designers are increasingly challenged. Traditionally, ASICs and CPLDs have been clear winners in the ...

Now, we should look in detail at each power consumption factor: Inrush/Power-up current—When an FPGA powers up, it needs to establish internal biases and complete reset sequence. It causes a current ...
