4.3 Indicative current requirements
Table 9 lists examples of the total system supply current for a possible application.
Values in Table 9 are provided for customer information only as an example of typical power requirements.
Values are characterized on samples, actual power requirements can vary depending on FW version used,
external circuitry, number of SVs tracked, signal strength, type of start as well as time, duration and
conditions of test.
