Hello everyone,
im designing a new dongle, mostly for personal usage, it will fit my needs.
Anyway, since i want to dump lion in favor of supercaps, i need to know the power consumption of the ic itself (the prerihpeal will be calculated).
i cannot seem to find it in the datasheet.
With a supposed absorb of 100mA, with a 2.7V 1F supercap (ideally) it would take about 12 seconds to discharge it to 2V, which is enough to deploy the payload (the ic works from 1.62V to 3.63V, so 2V-2.7V is good).
Can someone with the trinket M0 measure its absorbed current so i can get a general idea?
Thanks
