Standby Mode: The CC1352R LaunchPad is mounted on the camera module. The CC1352R wakes up the system (Wi-Fi and image processor) on receiving a wake-up trigger. This wake-up trigger can be a PIR activity or video doorbell button press or a network trigger. If no trigger is received, the system is in standby mode. This mode also serves as a low-power mode for the camera. In this state, only battery gauging is supported at regular intervals and the rest of the blocks are in sleep or hibernate mode. The current drawn from 5 V battery in this mode is approximately 2 mA. Note that CC1352R software example is not optimized for power: Wake on radio also consumes more power. A developer can optimize the sensors on the Launchpad and the RX/TX duration of CC1352R to reduce the current consumption. Longer preamble on TX will increase the response time, but decrease the current consumption on the RX side.
Active Mode: Once a wake-up trigger is received by the CC1352R, it activates the main host MCU, that is, Wi-Fi, video encoder and the necessary power rails. This state is referred to as active mode for the camera. Here, additional functions are available: ambient light sensing, video streaming over Wi-Fi or over USB. The current drawn from a 5 V battery in active mode is approximately 200 mA during video streaming. Note that CC3235MODS SW is not optimized for power. Table 3-1 illustrates the test conditions and the expected current consumption from the battery rail.
Figure 3-20 and Figure 3-21 shows the power-up and power-down sequence as seen in the camera module. Individual delays for each rail can be modified by setting the appropriate R/C in the schematic design to meet the power up/down requirements as suggested in the OA7000 datasheet.
