5.2 Current consumption measurement
The MK8000 EVB has dedicated circuits for MK8000 chipset current consumption testing. Figure 15
shows the schematic of related portion. User can use a multimeter and J95 to perform a coarse test,
and an oscilloscope and J95 to perform an accurate test.

5.2.1 Coarse measurement of current consumption
This test uses the following the steps with a multimeter to measure the current of MK8000 EVB.
1. Power off the MK8000 EVB
2. Leave the J96 at the disconnect state and short the J95
3. Set the Multimeter to the current test state, connect the pin of J96 near the power supply to the
positive node of Multimeter, connect the other pin of J96 to the negative node of Multimeter
4. Power on the EVB by J105
