Power consumption with pins turned on
Posted: Sat Apr 16, 2022 8:33 pm
Hello Vocorers!
I am doing some estimation about how much power does Vocore 2 consume and I found the site information about "74mA wifi standby, 230mA wifi full speed, 5V input", but I would like to know: does it increase when turn a pin on to control something like a motor or a sensor? Or, does it increase when I power a sensor with the 3.3V output pin?
OR does the 230mA means the maximum current consumption I can get with all pins being used and turned on?
