This tutorial introduces the power analysis and optimization use model recommended for use with the Xilinx® Vivado® Integrated Design Environment (IDE). The tutorial describes the basic steps involved in taking a small example design from RTL to implementation, estimating power through the different stages, and using simulation data to enhance the accuracy of the power analysis. It also describes the steps involved in using the power optimization tools in the design.
