SmartVID in Agilex™ FPGAs

SmartVID individually optimizes device margins due to semiconductor manufacturing variations to reduce power consumption while maintaining performance.

 

Please take a look at the video on the top, which introduces the operation image of SmartVID.

Agilex™ FPGA product code

Agilex™ FPGA product code (part number) that supports SmartVID.

 
SmartVID excludes "-4 speed grade" with low static power
Available in all speed grades of all Agilex™ device families.

Speed grade and power options

SmartVID is supported by devices with grades circled in red in the diagram on the right.

Non-SmartVID fixed voltage devices are available in low static power -4 speed grade only.

Configuring SmartVID in Development Software

All connections required for SmartVID must be set up in the circuit board and the Intel® Quartus® Prime software.

 

The figure on the right shows the main setting screens in the Intel® Quartus® Prime software for SmartVID.
