This patch increases the power consumption about 250 mW (~50mA @ 5V). I
think it could be nice to disable LRADC after spl boot if it is not
really needed.
This happens only on our machine. The increase is only 25 mW (5mA) on
mx28evk.
You tried with latest mainline?
Yes, I'm using v2012.07-rc2.
Sure it's OK to disable LRADC afterwards, will you submit a patch please?
I just noticed the power was not eaten by LRADC. Power consumption is
increasing because of a battery charger. The charger circuit is enabled
even if the machine has no a battery connected to CPU.
I added debug code to see the status of the battery charger:
--- a/arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/mx28/spl_power_init.c
+++ b/arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/mx28/spl_power_init.c

+
+ serial_printf("Charger circuit: %s\n",

POWER_CHARGE_PWD_BATTCHRG?"down":"up");
+
early_delay(1000);
}
After disabling battery charger at the end of power init 25 mW power
leak has been gone. Tested with mx28evk rev D. Is there any reason to
enable the charger without a battery?
