• Determine the power consumed by the quiescent state in Amp-hours.
Quiescent Power = quiescent minutes * quiescent current draw/60
Quiescent Power = 1418 minutes*6 mA/60 = 141.8 mA-hour or 0.1418
Amp-hours/day
• Determine the power consumed by the active state in Amp-hours.
Active Power = active minutes * active current draw/60
Active Power = 22 minutes*250 mA/60 = 91.67 mA-hour or 0.0917 Amp-
hours/day
• Total power consumption is the sum of the active and quiescent power.
Total Power = quiescent power +
active power
Total Power = 0.1418 Amp-hours/day + 0.0917 Amp-hours/day
Total Power = 0.2335 Amp-hours/day
