Power Budget Calculator

Calculate and Optimize IoT Device Power Consumption

IoT Power Budget Lab

Estimate battery life from component current, duty cycle, battery capacity, and regulator efficiency, then diagnose which design choice most limits the device.

Goal
Build a defensible power budget from active, standby, and deep-sleep currents.
Try
Load a preset, change active time, then compare target life and peak-current risk.
Watch
Use average current, daily energy, top consumers, and what-if rows together.
Reflect
Would you optimize firmware duty cycle, component choice, or battery size first?

Guided Investigation

  1. Start with Long-Life BLE Beacon and notice how tiny active time changes the result.
  2. Switch to Asset Tracker and identify why GPS or radio use dominates.
  3. Use the what-if table before changing components so your optimization has a reason.

Scenario Focus

Long-Life BLE Beacon is tuned to show how a small active window, deep sleep, and a coin cell interact.
