psx controller current draw

I'm looking forward to using psx digital and dualshock controllers for use in some of my personal projects.

At this point, I have a couple of doubts regarding current draw from these controllers.

Can someone tell me how much current does a digital ps1 controller controller draw from the 3.3v line during normal operation?

For the dualshock controller, I'd like to know how much power is drawn from the 3.3v and how much from the ~7.6v lines.

I would measure this myself if possible, but I have no ps1 or ps2 at the moment, and I suspect some people around here might know.

Thank you in advance.
