measuring the power consumption

[Anonymous]

is there a method of measuring the power consumption of a program written in the PSOC5 LP??

AppNote AN77900 (http://www.cypress.com/?rID=64554 ) explains (apart from how to do low power application) how to measure power consumption on the -030, -050 and -001 kits. This requires some modifications to these boards to allow accurate measurements (just removing and adding some resistors and solder bridges).

Don't ignore the power estimator Excel spreadsheet in the download

   

section for this ap note, allows one to estimate power specific to your

   

design.
