Honored ContributorWhy Cyclone III cost as much power as Cyclone II?
I believe 65nm process technology can help to lower power consumption than 90nm. However the POWERPLAY and board test result did not agree with that. I have a design for data transceiving using ...

Honored ContributorClearly, the analog voltage regulators for PLL analog supply generates additional losses. In addition, 65 nm technology must be expected to have higher static power consumption due to leakage currents. Did you compare the supply currents of 1V2 and 3V3 node for both designs in power play simulation and real design operation?
