The determine of the stimulation power consumption of the implantable unit may be based on the plurality of stimulation pulses determined by the external unit, and more specifically, determined by a sound processor arranged within the external unit and/or the implantable unit. The plurality of stimulation pulses may be communicated to the power management unit. Furthermore, the power management unit may be configured to determine a power consumption stage of the implantable unit.
