Click the Summary tab to view global power consumption at the design level. The Summary tab shows your designs' estimated Power Consumption and Temperature information.
The power estimation reported in the Summary tab is the total static and dynamic power consumption of your design. For a more detailed view of this power consumption, click the Dynamic tab.
To estimate the junction temperature:
Verify your package. You cannot change your package directly in SmartPower, because it may obsolete your place-and-route information (and thus it may severely impact the total power consumption). If you wish to choose another package, you have to do it in Designer > Tools > Device Selection.
Click the Summary tab, and select a Cooling style in the list. Thermal resistance changes automatically when you update the cooling style.
Specify an ambient temperature.
Enter an ambient temperature (default
value is 25ºC), and click the Set
button.
Note: The junction temperature value changes according to the package, cooling style, and ambient temperature values you choose.
