Table 20: Current Consumption Ratings - UMTS

1. Note: Current consumption ratings are based on measurements done in a laboratory test environment,
and deviations may occur from the given typical ratings. Under real life conditions however, with e.g.,
varying network quality, location changes, or changing supply currents, the deviations from these typical
ratings may be even bigger, and will have to be taken into account for actual power supply solutions. For
more details on power supply design see [3].
