Hi all,

I have the same issue with altera Cyclone V GX development kit. When clock is stopped ( 0 Mhz ) measured power consumption (measured by external CPLD) ~420 mW. Power consumption of unconfigured device ~300mW. This is much more then all estimations of EPE or Power play (with the same design).

Thanks in advance,

Nickolay
