Stratix IV core power circuit Design

Stratix IV :EP4SGX360KF40C4N.

What is the Maximum core current (the 0.9V one ) based on regular operating condition,let say 50% load.or say using all 24 ports and a few code for PRBS 31 and a few IOs.

Right now, We are assuming 10A for the Icc.(0.9v).

Does this sound correct.

Please Advise,

Thanks

You can use the early power estimator to determine that. You can find it here (http://www.altera.com/support/devices/estimator/st3-estimator/st3-power-estimator.html) and the manual here (http://www.altera.com/literature/ug/ug_epe.pdf)
