Thanks for your answer.

And I find the link:

http://events.linuxfoundation.org/sites/events/files/slides/Linux_Low_Power_ELC_SanDiego.pdf,telling how to measure power though I2C.

Would you please give some help for the requied tools:

  • Modified kernel
  • gatord daemon
  • gator.ko kernel driver

Looking for reply

Hi littleFive

For now it will need to be measured from the carrier or power supply. The INA (current measurement) support is being added in a later version of the module.

Thanks

Newer revisions of the TX1 module enable the use of INA power monitors, see [url]Jetson TX1 - INA226 (Power Monitor with i2C Interface) - Jetson TX1 - NVIDIA Developer Forums
