Memory access
Here the consumption of memory access is measured by saving a file of one MB on different drives of the phone:
- D: It is the drive used to store temporary files
- E: Memory card (micro SD)
- C: This drive is a flash memory also called phone memory
Experiment details
Description: | Power consumption for saving 1 MB on the phone |
Place: | Indoor |
Number of tests: | 50 |
Notes: | During the measurements all the air interfaces (BT, WLAN and Cellular) are switched off. |
The Figures below show the values of energy, time and power for saving the file respectively. As expected time, and therefore energy, is smaller when using the D drive.
