Note:
  1. ICCCP Active is the ICCDA or the Internal Charge Pump current. ICCCP Bypassed mode is the External Charge Pump current IIH (VPUMP pin).
  2. IIH, IIL, or IOZ values are measured with inputs at the same level as VCCI for IIH and GND for IIL and IOZ.

The following table lists the default values (CLOAD, VCCI, PLOAD, P10, and PI/O) of I/O standard.

Power Dissipation is calculated using the following equations.

  • Ptotal = Pdc + Pac
    • Pdc = ICCA × VCCA
    • Pac = PHCLK + PCLK + PR-cells + PC-cells + Pinputs + Poutputs + Pmemory + PPLL
  • PHCLK = (P1 + P2 × s + P3 × sqrt[s]) × Fs
    • s = the number of R-cells clocked by this clock
    • Fs = the clock frequency
  • PCLK = (P4 + P5 × s + P6 × sqrt[s]) × Fs
    • s = the number of R-cells clocked by this clock
    • Fs = the clock frequency
  • PR-cells = P7 × ms × Fs
    • ms = the number of R-cells switching at each Fs cycle
    • Fs = the clock frequency
  • PC-cells = P8 × mc × Fs
    • Fs = the clock frequency
    • mc = the number of C-cells switching at each Fs cycle
  • Pinputs = P9 × pi × Fpi
    • pi = the number of inputs
    • Fpi = the average input frequency
  • Poutputs = PI/O × po × Fpo
    • Cload = the output load (technology dependent)
    • VCCI = the output voltage (technology dependent)
    • po = the number of outputs
    • Fpo = the average output frequency
  • Pmemory = P11 × Nblock × FRCLK + P12 × Nblock × FWCLK
    • Nblock = the number of RAM/FIFO blocks (1 block = 4k)
    • FRCLK = the read-clock frequency of the memory
    • FWCLK = the write-clock frequency of the memory
  • PPLL = P13 × FCLK
    • FRefCLK = the clock frequency of the clock input of the PLL
    • FCLK = the clock frequency of the first clock output of the PLL
