It is possible to calculate the typical current consumption based on the numbers from Table 27-2
for other V
CC
and frequency settings than listed in Table 27-1.
27.2.1.1 Example 1
Calculate the expected current consumption in idle mode with USART, TIMER1, and SPI
enabled at V
CC
= 3.0V and F = 1MHz. From Table 27-2, third column, we see that we need to
add 18% for the USART, 26% for the SPI, and 11% for the TIMER1 module. Reading from
Fig-
ure 27-5, we find that the idle current consumption is ~0,17mA at V
CC
= 3.0V and F = 1MHz. The
total current consumption in idle mode with USART0, TIMER1, and SPI enabled, gives:
27.2.1.2 Example 2
Same conditions as in example 1, but in active mode instead. From Table 27-2, second column
we see that we need to add 3.3% for the USART, 4.8% for the SPI, and 2.0% for the TIMER1
module. Reading from
Figure 27-1, we find that the active current consumption is ~0,6mA at V
CC
= 3.0V and F = 1MHz. The total current consumption in idle mode with USART, TIMER1, and
SPI enabled, gives:
27.2.1.3 Example 3
All I/O modules should be enabled. Calculate the expected current consumption in active mode
at V
CC
= 3.6V and F = 10MHz. We find the active current consumption without the I/O modules
to be ~ 7.0mA (from
Figure 27-2). Then, by using the numbers from Table 27-2 - second column,
we find the total current consumption:
