It is possible to calculate the typical current consumption based on the numbers from
Table 181 for other V
CC
and frequency settings than listed in Table 182.
Example 1 Calculate the expected current consumption in idle mode with USART0, TIMER1, and
TWI enabled at V
CC
= 2.0V and F = 1MHz. From Table 182 on page 396, third column,
we see that we need to add 17% for the USART0, 24% for the TWI, and 10% for the
TIMER1 module. Reading from Figure 172 on page 393, we find that the idle current
consumption is ~0,15mA at V
CC
= 2.0V and F = 1MHz. The total current consumption in
idle mode with USART0, TIMER1, and TWI enabled, gives:
PRTIM0 4.0 uA 24 uA 100 uA
PRSPI 15 uA 95 uA 400 uA
PRADC 12 uA 75 uA 315 uA
