the Link2 processor and is not user programmable. Power measurement utilities to use 
this feature are available in LPCXpresso and IDE MCUXpresso IDE installations. 
 
Due to input offset voltage variations in the MAX9634, the current measurement circuit is 
not recommended for measuring current below 150 uA. See Fig 5 as a guideline for 
measurement error versus measured current.

6.1.4  Shield board current measurement 
To use the on-board current measurement circuitry, any expansion board must match the 
functionality of the LPCXpresso546x8/540xx/54S0xx. Refer to the board schematics for 
more information.
