UPF provides the ability for electronic systems to be designed with power as a key consideration early in the process. It accomplishes this through the ability to allow the specification of implementation-relevant power information early in the design process RTL (register transfer level) or earlier.

UPF, the Unified Power Format standard from Accellera, enables open, multi-vendor tool flows and solutions for low-power design. The true value of a single, widely adopted standard is demonstrated by interoperability of products from a range of EDA suppliers who support the UPF standard. UPF is a key technology donation to the proposed 1801 standard, which is currently being produced by the IEEE. Designers of modern, low-power ICs are the ultimate beneficiaries of UPF.
