I'm having a hard time determining what my power draw will be from this board. Can someone help me navigate the documentation or explain the best way to determine what my power draw will be? Specifically, we are looking to use the CY8CPROTO-062-4343W Prototyping kit.

Hi gash_4610846​,

You can find the current ratings of the device on the device datasheet.​ Please refer Table 9. CPU Current and Transition Times.

To measure the current consumed by the Kit, please remove resistor R65 and measure current across VTARG and P6_VDD.

You can find this information on page 4 of the Kit schematic​.
