Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Power consumption estimation is essential for the FPGA accelerator-used high-performance computer system. However, the dynamic power consumption of FPGA cannot be estimated without direct tool measurement.Therefore, we proposed the estimation method based on the information of both state machine transition speed and the updating period of the registers.For an evaluation, We implemented two evaluation board.The first board capable of configuring the register count and updating period and the second board capable of configuring the state transition speed.Our evaluation validated that the dynamic power consumption is affected by all parameters, i.e., updating period and amount of the register, the transition speed of state machine and the duty ratio.
