2.3.1.8 Current Consumption

Table 2-2 shows the current consumption of the various components on the board. The AFE882H1 in particular operates on very low power. The power savings is particularly important because the transmitter must be able to operate with less than 3mA of current, and power savings for this portion can be applied to use in the sensor.
