Abstract:
A smart-home device may include a main power rail that provides power to components of the smart-home device; an integrator coupled to the main power rail that stores energy on an energy-storage device, where the energy stored on the energy-storage device is representative of an amount an amount of power provided to the smart-home device through the main power rail during an integration cycle of the integrator; and a counter that stores a number of integration cycles performed by the integrator during a time interval, where a total amount of power provided to the smart-home device through the main power rail during the time interval is represented by: (1) the number of integration cycles performed by the integrator during the time interval; and (2) the energy stored on the energy-storage device.
