I am using a Raspberry Pi Zero Wh. In order to equip it with a suitable power supply, I need to know the no-load current and load current, so I tested it with a multimeter.
Test preparation:
220V power socket;
5V 2A charger. Note that 1A cannot start the Raspberry Pi, so I just disassembled a 1A charger for nothing.
A multimeter with current measurement function, mine is a Fluke 106.
Experimental steps:
Unscrew the charger wire by about 5cm, take out the red wire, cut it, and wrap the copper wire inside around the probe of the multimeter;
Turn the multimeter to A current measurement mode;
Connect the two ends of the wire to the charger head and the Raspberry Pi micro power supply respectively;
Wait for the Raspberry Pi to automatically power on and observe the current value on the multimeter;
Run the load program on the Raspberry Pi and observe the changes in the current value.
Experimental results:
The current of Raspberry Pi Zero W is 81ma after power on;
When executing the C version DHT11 temperature measurement program, the current is about 108ma;
When executing vcgencmd measure_volts, the voltage is 1.2V. Can this be interpreted as a power consumption of 0.1~0.13 W?
In addition, the test with a 10000mah power bank shows that it can last for 40 hours.
Attached is the experimental effect diagram.
