Power usage, 400 Hz vs 10 Hz

I'm using the LIS2DH at a 10 Hz sample rate and need to change it to 400 Hz. How will this change power consumption of the device?

Hi @RobH​ ,

you can find the detailed table of the LIS2DH power consumption in the datasheet, p.17:

In your case, depending on your mode, you can have the following power consumption variations:

  • Low power mode --> from 3uA [10Hz] to 36uA [400Hz]
  • Normal mode --> from 4uA [10Hz] to 73uA [400Hz]
  • High resolution mode --> from 4uA [10Hz] to 73uA [400Hz]

Let me please know if it is enough for your scope.
