Check your Raspberry pi power supply and USB cable

raspberry-power-supply-check.sh

#!/bin/bash

# Before running this script, make sure you have sysbench installed:
#           sudo apt-get install sysbench
#
# This script helps you check if your Raspberry pi is correctly powered.
# You can read more about Raspberry pi powering issues here: https://ownyourbits.com/2019/02/02/whats-wrong-with-the-raspberry-pi/


# If you're pi is correctly powered (stable power supply and quality cable), after running the script, you should get something like:
#
# 45.6'C 1400 / 600 MHz 1.3813V -
# 55.3'C 1400 / 1400 MHz 1.3813V -
# 58.0'C 1400 / 1400 MHz 1.3813V -
# 60.2'C 1400 / 1400 MHz 1.3813V -
# 60.2'C 1400 / 1400 MHz 1.3813V -
# 61.1'C 1400 / 1400 MHz 1.3813V -
# 61.1'C 1400 / 1400 MHz 1.3813V -
# 60.8'C 1400 / 1400 MHz 1.3813V -

# If your power supply can't provide a stable 5V 2.5A or if the cable is not good enough, you should get something like:
#
# 39.7'C 1400 / 1400 MHz 1.3875V - Throttling has occurred, Under-voltage has occurred,
# 48.3'C 1400 / 1400 MHz 1.3875V - Throttling has occurred, Under-voltage has occurred,

Thanks! The source I was looking was using the wrong endianness. I updated the gist.

echo "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-backports main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get -t buster-backports install sysbench

May be useful for installing to 64-bit Raspbian OS

Is it fine if the CPU gets only 0,8V, but no error occurs?

@passiveprogrammer, same question. With "bad" power-supply: 0,9 V but error (Under-voltage), with (I hope) a good one: 0,8 V but no error.
