Brent I didn't see your request on the list. The current draw will depend on your circuit configuration, outputs etc... Microchip gives typical values in their data sheets. You can put an ampmeter in series with your power supply and read the actual/average current draw. Quiescient current will vary between chips and temperature affects the draw.
