Example 3: VIPER [Windows CE] at 400MHz in power saving mode + LCD with backlight on + 64MB
FlashDio™ USB memory stick
In this case, the power consumed by the respective categories is:
•
VIPER current (Windows CE default) while idle
= 334mA ±3mA - 9mA
= 325mA ±3mA.
VIPER current (Windows CE default) while active
= 334mA + 99mA
±20mA
= 433mA ±20mA.
•
Power saving = 0mA.
•
External peripheral current (USB memory stick quiescent) = 650mA (LCD) + 75mA
=
725mA.
External peripheral current (USB memory stick read)
= 650mA (LCD) +
121mA
=
771mA
Therefore, the estimated VIPER current while idle (min) is:
325mA ±3mA + 725mA
= 1050mA, ±3mA (5250mW, ±15mW).
and the estimated VIPER current while active and reading from USB memory stick
(max) is:
433mA ±20mA + 771mA
= 1204mA, ±20mA (6020mW, ±100mW) .
