| Feb 12, 2014 at 7:15 | comment | added | Connor Wolf | The ATmega does not have traditional low-power modes like normal computers, so load is irrelevant. If you're not doing active computation, it's just spin-waiting. Power consumption when running is actually pretty much static (except things like writing to the EEPROM/flash), at least for the ATmega MCU. There may be variations in the ethernet interface power draw determined by traffic loading, but nothing is likely to generate enough heat to be an issue unless it's in a perfect vacuum or on a heater or something. | |
