STM32MP1 System-On-Module Power Consumption Print

 

This application note provides information on theoretically calculated power consumption of the STM32MP1 SOM, as well as some data on power consumption of the SOM measured in practical tests.

The following table provides information on power consumption of the SOM measured in practical tests performed by Emcraft. These numbers are for the SOM itself only (draw @ 3.3V). Power consumed by any components on the baseboard is not accounted for:
