Include breakdown by instance – This section shows the power consumption of each element that has been instantiated in the design: gates, nets, memories, and IOs.

The breakdown by instance can be filtered by:

  • Limit the number of reported instances to: will limit the number of instances reported to the specified number.
    • Report only instances with power greater than: any instance with power consumption below the selected value will not be reported.

This section can be sorted by selecting the preferred method:

The filter reduces the number of lines in the report, one per instance.
