Power & Battery Planner

Estimate battery life and average current for embedded systems using a multi-state duty cycle model. Define states like "Sleep", "Sense", and "Transmit" to accurately predict system longevity.

3. Advanced Duty-Cycle Power Model

Model complex state machines (e.g., Wake -> Sense -> TX -> Sleep). Add states relative to a single period (e.g. 1 second or 1 hour).

State Name Current (mA) Duration (ms) % Energy
Total Period: 0 ms
Weighted Average Current 0.000 mA
Engineering Note: Battery life estimates are theoretical linear approximations. Real-world battery chemistry (LiPo vs Coin Cell) behaves non-linearly under high peak loads (internal resistance drops). Always apply a safe derating factor (suggested 70-85%).
