Here is a bizarre question for you all. With the read mem command I can choose to read 0-255 bytes. My question is, does the number of bytes affect the amount of battery used ? Now, I do realize that the more bytes sent the longer it has to comm, anmd you could derive that that uses more power. I guess the real question is, is it less power consu,ing to read two separate cunks of mem by two commands, then byt doing one command, provided they are within 255 bytes ? I remember reading somewhere that while in debug mode, the port stays open. Does this mean it uses power when not sending ? If so, does it use that much more power when bytes are being sent? I'm just asking because I made an optimization and on POSEr I can see this is not an issue. But for device this is different. Although power consumption while debugging is most likely not much of an issue sunve you don' have much choice.
