Power Consumption

The power consumption level will vary depending on the operating mode, and it is for this reason that
the following consumption values are given for each mode and RF band.

The following consumption values were obtained by performing measurements on AirPrime
WISMO218 samples at a temperature of 25° C.

Note:

All of the following information given assumes a 50

RF output.


Power consumption performance is software related. The results listed below (typical values) are
based on the software version L02_00gg.WISMO218.

*

The application note “Very Low Power Consumption” (Reference: WA_DEV_GEN_APN_020-003) can be found

on the

Sierra Wireless website

(under the Developer section).
