STM32 Nucleo expansion board
for power consumption measurement
Introduction
The X-NUCLEO-LPM01A expansion board is a programmable power supply source (from
1.8 V to 3.3 V) with advanced power consumption measurement
capability.
It performs consumption averaging (static measurement up to 200 mA) as well as real-time
a
nalysis (dynamic measurement up to 50 mA with 100 kHz bandwidth).
The X-NUCLEO-LPM01A operates either in
standalone mode (using its LCD, joystick and
button to display static measurements), or in controlled mode connected to a host PC via
USB (using the STM32CubeMonitor-Power software tool with its comprehensive graphical
user interface).
It can be used to supply and measure the con
sumption of STM32 Nucleo-32, Nucleo-64 or
Nucleo-144 boards using Arduino™ connectors. Alternatively, it supplies and measures the
consumption of any target connected by wires via the basic connector.
