This study compared the performance, power consumption, and resource utilization of two FPGA devices (Kintex-7 Low Voltage and Kintex UltraScale) for the AES encryption algorithm. The most significant difference was observed at the LVCMOS 12 where the Kintex UltraScale consumed 164.83% more power than he kintex-7 Low Voltage. The Kintex-7 Low Voltage utilized 50% more Slice LUTs and 93.28% more BUFGCTRL than Kintex UltraScale. The Kintex-7 Low Voltage FPGA is more power-efficient. At the same time, the Kintex UltraScale FPGA may be more suitable for applications that require specialized resource utilization, even if it consumes more power. The study emphasizes the importance of FPGA selection and I/O standards in enhancing power efficiency. It highlights the need to consider power consumption and resource utilization when selecting FPGA devices for complex algorithms like AES encryption.
