Target Current Measurement
Power to the PIC18F47K42 is connected from the on-board power supply and
VTG
pin through a 100-mil pin header
cut
Target Power strap
marked with “
POWER
” in silkscreen (J101). To measure the power consumption of the
PIC18F47K42 and other peripherals connected to the board, cut the
Target Power strap
and connect an ammeter
over the strap.

Tip:
A 100-mil pin header can be soldered into the
Target Power strap
(J101) footprint for easy
connection of an ammeter. Once the ammeter is not needed anymore, place a jumper-cap on the pin
header.
