[[AxelEVB-Lite|AxelEVB]] integrates a chip (Texas Instruments INA226) that allows to measure the power consumption of the Axel SOM. This component - referenced as U25 - is very flexible. Following are the instructions to perform basic measurements. For more details please refer to its data sheet (http://wwwtested with the Linux kernel released with [[Axel_Embedded_Linux_Kit_(XELK)|XELK 2.ti3.com/product/INA2260]]).

TBDSOM power consumption measurements are available to be read from userspace via <code>sysfs</code> entries. Following are the entries for:* Voltage expressed in mV:<pre>root@axel-lite:~# cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/in0_input5root@axel-lite:~# cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/in1_input3286</pre>* Current expressed in mA:<pre>root@axel-lite:~# cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/curr1_input425</pre>* Power expressed in uW:<pre>root@axel-lite:~# cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/power1_input1500000</pre> INA225 - referenced as U25 on AxelEVB - is very flexible.
