3.2.1 Low-Power Modes

Using low-power modes is the most powerful solution to reduce the overall average consumption by keeping the device functions as much as possible in the run time. The key method is to supply different clock sources, clock frequencies and power domain to realize different power level.

The common used approach consists of switching between different power modes (RUN, SLEEP, STOP, STANDBY, and SHUTDOWN) and three lower mode policy options (XX0, XX1, XX2). Remember to leverage between of the application requirements in terms of power consumption, wakeup sources/time and the peripherals simultaneously. For the low-power mode basics, see Section 2.
