The CC3X00 SimpleLink Power Management Measurement application provides users the ability to configure the device in various low power modes and profiles, for the purposes of current consumption measurements. The user can choose to work in the Interactive (simple) mode or to use the advanced mode, where they can change the define values in the source code in order to control the behavior of the application. The application has recommended guidelines on how to optimize the power consumption for the different power profiles.
The system's various basic power modes are first explained. These are the building blocks of all power management profiles.
The various power profiles are the focus of this document:
NOTE
The focus is on periodic/repetitive events because one-time events, no matter how high they peak, do not need to be taken into account, since their influence is negligible for longer periods of activity.
All instructions in this application report are under the assumptions that the user already has a working environment of CC3100 BoosterPack attached to the MSP430 LaunchPad, and that he installed all the relevant software packages. Otherwise, see the CC3100 SimpleLink Wi-Fi and IoT Solution Getting Started Guide, before proceeding.
