Power estimation is a critical starting point in system/board design flow. The initial estimation is the starting point for thermal and power delivery design. The result of all these stages should then be used as design constraints in AMD Vivado™ or AMD Vitis™ project. The following figure shows an overview of this flow. For more information, see Power and Thermal Planning section in Versal Adaptive SoC System and Solution Planning Methodology Guide (UG1504).
