Description
Type
EEPROM
Base Power
Eight registers/port. Specifies (in Watts) the base power value in the operating
condition. This value must be multiplied by the Data Scale to produce the actual
power consumption value.

Data Scale
Specifies the scale to apply to the Base Power value. The power consumption of
the device is determined by multiplying the Base Power field contents with the
value corresponding to the encoding returned by this field.
