Appendix A How to Measure Current
Consumption
For measuring current consumption of the single S
1
C
17801
unit, jumpers (JP
4
,JP
5
,JP
2
) are available on the
SVT
17801
CPU board. The S
1
C
17801
has three power supplies, one for core and I/O (V
DD
), one for analog system
(AV
DD
), and the other for RTC (RTCV
DD
). Jumpers are available for each power supply. Current consumed by each
power supply line can be measured by inserting an ammeter among the pins after removing the jumper. Sum of the
current obtained from each power line is current consumed by the single S
1
C
17801
unit.

Measuring V
DD
Current Consumption
Current consumed by the power supply for core and I/O (V
DD
) can be measured by inserting an ammeter into JP
4
.
Because external components affect the measurement, some necessary process is required for each I/O pin. To
measure current consumption for the single S
1
C
17801
as described in the S
1
C
17801
Technical Manual, influence
by current must be controlled for "USB pins" and "STBY pins."
For information about sample software (software flow) to measure current consumption, see the S

USB Pins
Shot key diodes D

to D
6
are attached to the SVT
17801
USB pins as shown in the figure A.

. The diodes attach-
ment is intended for electrostatic protection. However, current flowing through the diodes is also measured when
measuring Halt or Sleep current of the single S
1
C
17801
, and this diodes current causes deviation of the single
S

17801
current consumption from that described in the S

To reduce current consumption in Halt or Sleep mode, set P

cancelled. However, note that executing this operation while OSCI is used as a system clock causes system to halt
