LonWorks Twisted Pair Control Module User's Guide 

       17 

The supply current requirements for the control modules are outlined in 

Table 8

which includes peak requirements for the different operating states of the 

Neuron Chip.  The control modules require a 5 V ±5% power supply.  The current 

requirements are characterized for maximum number of devices on the channel 

with I/O pins programmed as outputs at a logic low level with no load. 
The values in 

Table 8

 are subject to change.  Please consult current data sheets 

for the latest information.

Assumes internal I/O pullups are disabled and I/O lines are not connected 

to a load. 

2.

 

Assumes SERVICE~ pullup is enabled.  

3.

 

Includes CMOS EPROM or flash chip running typical application with 

system code. 

4.

 

These figures include typical PROM current consumption of 4 mA at 5 

MHz or 5 mA at 10 MHz; the TP/FT-10F and TP/XF-78F figures include 

flash memory reads, however, 

flash memory writes require an 

additional

 50 mA

.  These figures exclude current due to loading on the 

I/O connector pins.
