| ==DC Supply==
| |
| The AXIOM Beta developer kits ship with 5V DC power supply.
| |
|
| |
|
| AXIOM Beta takes two 5V inputs (1x Microzed, 1x rest of electronics) and together draws 4A max, power consumption depends on operation and is in the 10-20 W range typically.
| |
|
| |
| ==DC/DC Converter==
| |
|
| |
| Two 5V 2.5A output converters should be suitable.
| |
|
| |
| For batteries both isolated as well as non-isolated DC converters are suitable.
| |
|
| |
| https://octopart.com/search?q=171050601 would be an option
| |
|
| |
| ==Batteries==
| |
| With batteries it is a convenient feature being able to:
| |
|
| |
| *measure power consumption (AXIOM Beta does that already)
| |
| *estimate time left for operation (AXIOM Beta measures voltages - it still requires an algorithmn that turns the discharge curve into a time estimate)
| |
| *set low voltage warning level
