Energy Measurement - nxp-mcuxpresso/vscode-for-mcux GitHub Wiki

The Energy Measurement view enables the measurement of energy consumption using MCU-Link Pro debug probe or boards that incorporate the power measurement circuit.

Import Energy Measurement Archive

The Import Energy Measurement Archive button can be used to load data from an Energy Measurement archive. The archive can be generated with the MCUXpresso IDE Energy Measurement feature, using a MCU-Link probe.

An Energy Measurement archive contains a binary file with all the recorded data and a csv file with the configuration settings.

ImportArchive

After importing the selected archive, a new entry for offline analysis is added in the Analysis view.

The Offline Energy Measurement entry displays a summary of the imported data: the minimum value (min), the average value (avg), the maximum value (max), the time interval (deltaT) and the energy consumption (E). The energy consumption is displayed if the Target Power source was used to collect data.

ImportValues

The imported configuration details are displayed on the tooltip. These are the used probe and data source.
