Summary tab

The Summary tab is divided into two sections: Power Consumption and Temperatures.

SmartPower Summary Tab

Power Consumption

Displays the total static and dynamic power of the design. (Accurate only after you have entered your target clock and data frequencies.)

Temperatures

Displays the impact of the power consumption on the junction temperature for a given cooling scenario. You can specify a cooling scenario using the drop-down menu (available scenarios are: Still Air, 300 ft/min, Custom, and Case Cooling; default is Still Air). SmartPower also reports the thermal resistance, θJA.

The junction temperature estimation T is dependent on the thermal resistance (qJA) (which is itself package and cooling-style dependent), and the ambient temperature TA, and the total dynamic power consumption of your design P. The formula is:
