The HBM worksheet shows the power information pertaining to high-bandwidth memory (HBM).
Figure 20. HBM Worksheet of the Early Power Estimator
Table 18.  General Settings in the HBM Worksheet
Input Parameter Description
Total Thermal Power The total power dissipated in all modules on this worksheet (in W).
Power Rails The name of the specific power rail.
Voltage (V) The voltage applied to the specified power rail (in V).
Dynamic Current (A) Component of active current drawn from the specified power rail due to signal activity of all modules on this worksheet (in A). This current is independent of device size, device grade, power characteristics and junction temperature.
Memory Frequency (MHz) - HBM TOP_0

The memory interface frequency for HBM TOP_0 (in MHz).
Memory Frequency (MHz) - HBM BOT_0 The memory interface frequency for HBM BOT_0 (in MHz).
