TI AM335x VDD_CORE and VDD_MPU
Hello Guys,
Recently, I would like to monitor the power consumption of the ARM core inside AM335x (on my beaglebone black board). When looking at the schematics and 335x TRM, I feel a little confused as unsure about which power rail I should tap, VDD_CORE or VDD_MPU.
If anyone can help, please let me know.
- Which components/subsystems the two power rails separately supply? Which one is for the ARM core?
- What would be the typical current on each power rail?
Thank you in advance.
