Tip 1. View Current Drain Waveforms for Deep Insights into Battery Run Time
Gain deeper insights into device operation to optimize battery run time.
To simply validate battery run time, you can either measure the run time directly or measure current drain for a prolonged period and extrapolate based on stated battery capacity. However, optimizing run time requires several tests to gain additional insights. You must test and characterize the device, its subcircuits and the battery, both independently and in combination. Detailed battery drain analysis offers deeper insights into device operation that enable you to optimize run time.
