Power consumption of magnetometer lis2mdl

Kostas_N · ‎2024-05-04

I used in the past lis2mdl. I need to reproduce the former product. I ordered the same parts but I faced an issue with the magnetometer. The part number is the same but i got different power consumption. I got an image with the different magnetometers (old and new with same product number ) and i found out that they have different markings. Are there any different versions of lis2mdl with different power consumption?

I measured 20 to 100 μA difference.

That sounds strange. Which are your settings?
