In this work I have evaluated a method to model, measure and analyze the power consumption of embedded systems. The method combines current measurement with debug trace data telling which parts of the systems that are enabled. This makes it possible to compute the individual current consumption of the parts in the system from a single measurement point. The method allows an embedded systems engineer to determine the power consumption of individual parts in a system to either get an overview or to compare several revisions of hardware and/or software with each other. The method also captures the system dynamics of the power delivery route. This makes the model consumption behave more like the actual system around state transitions. The case study is focused on the Arm-based microcontroller CC2650 from Texas Instruments and uses the I-scope/I-jet probe from IAR Systems to measure current consumption and collect trace data.
