Estimate the power consumption of the MAX 10 device 10M08SLV81I7G

I would like to estimate the power consumption of the MAX 10 device 10M08SLV81I7G using the PowerPlay Early Power Estimator Excel file. However, the part number 10M08SLV81I7G is not listed. In addition, there is no information available on the Thermal Resistance Information website.

Could you please provide me with a PowerPlay Early Power Estimator Excel file that includes the part number 10M08SLV81I7G?

      Hello, EPE for MAX10 is not planned to get updated. 

      You may use the .csv generated after Quartus compilation then load it into current EPE and you will get the estimate current consumption. 

      From this point, you can use PDN for MAX10 to calculate the decoupling capacitors. 

      link for PDN : https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/content-details/652727/power-delivery-network-pdn-tool-2-0-for-max-10-devices.html

       

      MAX10 is not very high temperature device(no transceivers or high speed elements), most of the time, it can be cooled with air flow.

        Hello. Thank you for your answer.
        I specified the target device on Quartus Prime Standard, used the .csv file generated after compilation, and tried to load it into the current EPE, but it could not be loaded. Please tell me how to resolve this issue.
        The error message is as follows.
